The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about what’s going on in the water. The 16-day outlook is a tough one, with no real standouts to get excited about. Let’s walk through it.
The only option in the mix is Les Laurons, a reef break that’s good for beginners. The water temp is 78°F, which is about 5°F warmer than usual, so it’s much warmer than normal for this time of year – you’ll be comfortable in a shorty.
Friday August 21st and Saturday August 22nd are a waste. The wind is cross or onshore at 15 to 19 mph, and the wave height is tiny, around 1 ft to 3 ft, with short periods. The combined energy is weak, from 23 to 57. It’s lumpy and messy.
Sunday August 23rd goes flat. Monday August 24th is flat with no swell at all. Tuesday 25th and Wednesday 26th see just tiny bumps, 0.3 ft to 2 ft, but the wind does clean up on some mornings with light cross-off breezes. Still, there’s no energy to make waves.
Thursday 27th is a no-go with strong winds and no swell. The pattern stays weak through the end of August.
Monday August 31st morning shows a pulse of 3 ft from the SW, period 6 seconds, with energy at 42. The wind is clean cross-off from the SE at 12 mph, so it could be rideable, but it’s small. The afternoon picks up to 5 ft from the S, period 5 seconds, energy 180, but the wind is fresh cross-shore at 22 mph, making it messy.
The best chance of the whole period is Tuesday September 1st. The morning sees 6 ft from the W, period 6 seconds, energy 246. The wind is cross from the NW at 16 mph, so expect chop. The afternoon holds 5 ft from the WNW, energy 168. It’s not clean, but it’s the most energy we’ll see.
Wednesday September 2nd morning is glassy, no wind, but the swell is only 3 ft from the NW, period 4 seconds, energy 25. Glassy is beautiful, but there’s no power.
Thursday September 3rd morning has clean cross-off winds at 19 mph, with 3 ft from the NW, but again short period and weak energy. The afternoon gets stronger winds, 25 mph, cleaning up a bit but still weak.
After that, the forecast drops through the first week of September, with small, weak, and choppy conditions.
The truth is, there’s no standout day. The only time you might get a wave is Tuesday September 1st, but it’s not clean. If you’re really keen, you could find a tiny bump on Monday August 31st morning or Wednesday September 2nd morning, but it’s not worth the drive. The water is warm, but the surf is flat. I’d wait for a better forecast.

Information about the Les Laurons Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Les Laurons provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Les Laurons can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Les Laurons surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Les Laurons) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Les Laurons may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Les Laurons is 3 km (2 miles) from Lavera. If you plan a holiday in Cote d'Azur, look for hotels and other accommodation in Lavera. Lavera has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
