The Lowdown
Right, pull up a chair, grab a coffee. Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the outlook is a tough one. The water is sitting at 81°, which is a full 9° warmer than usual for this time of year – that's a very unusual anomaly, feels like a bath out there. But the surf? It's a struggle. There's a long, dry spell right at the start. From Saturday the 8th all the way through to the morning of Monday the 18th of August, there's simply nothing worth paddling out for. The swells are tiny, periods are short, and the energy is basically non-existent, with combined energy values barely hitting double digits. It's a frustrating blank run for the area.
We finally get a little flicker of life on the morning of Monday the 18th. Les Roquilles sees a small pulse of swell: 4ft from the West, with a period of 5 seconds. The wind is light from the Northwest, which is a clean cross-offshore breeze, and the combined energy climbs to 63, which is still weak but a step up from nothing. The wave comment says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," and I'd agree. It's small, weak, and short-period, but it's the only game in town. Just don't expect much. The afternoon gets blown out by a stronger cross-offshore wind, so stick to the morning session.
The middle of the week on the 20th of August, Thursday afternoon, offers a slightly bigger but still tricky option. The swell pushes to 5ft from the WNW with a 5-second period, and the energy is 96. The wind is light offshore from the NNE, which is a good sign for clean conditions. The 5ft height is right on the edge of being too much for beginners, but it's still a short-period swell, so it won't have much punch. The combined energy is still weak, and the quality is described as "very ordinary."
After that, we fade back into nothing. The morning of the 22nd of August has a clean offshore wind, but no swell at all, and the last few days of the forecast show only tiny knee-high pulses. It's a real lean run. If you're desperate, the Monday morning of the 18th is your best bet for a limp session, but this is a stretch where the kites might have more fun than the paddle crew.
Rusty.

Information about the Les Roquilles Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Les Roquilles provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Les Roquilles can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Les Roquilles 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 Roquilles) 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 Roquilles 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.
