The Lowdown
Alright, coming at you from the sand with a look at the next couple of weeks. To be straight with you, this stretch is looking pretty bleak. There’s no real swell on the horizon for a while, and when there is a pulse, the winds and the shape of the break are going to work against us. It’s one of those times where you might be better off doing a bit of boat maintenance or checking the tides for a future trip.
The first genuinely surfable day is on Sunday the 24th of August. We’ve got some weak, cross-shore swell pushing in, but honestly, it’s nothing to get excited about. The energy is weak at 97, and the wind is up. It’s a beach and reef setup, so with the 4ft of sloppy, short-period ESE swell, it’s going to look more like a kite-surfing show than a surf session. The forecast has a risk of thunderstorms, too. I'd be sitting this one out.
The rest of the period is mostly a write-off. We’re looking at days of tiny, weak swell, often under 2ft, with winds that are all over the place. There are long gaps with nothing at all, and the few times we see a pulse, it’s short-period and often onshore. It’s a long, flat run, which for this region isn't that unusual, but it doesn't make it any easier to stomach.
About the only thing with a pulse is that early Monday (the 25th of August) push. It’s not big, maybe 2ft of S to SSE swell, but the wind is light and more offshore, which could clean it up a bit. The period is a touch longer at 7 seconds, so it might have a little more push than the rest of this dribble. But with energy still weak at 26, it’s a long shot. Don’t be fooled by the clear sky; the surf will be tiny and closed out.
Honestly, for a spot that’s as inconsistent as Les Roquilles, this is a classic blank stretch. The water is warm, real warm – the anomaly is 8°F, about as warm as it gets for this time of year, which is nice for a swim, but that’s about all it’s good for.
The long-range stuff into the second week of September is just more of the same – weak, short-period lumps and a lot of flatness. There’s nothing that warrants a special mention. My advice? Keep the board in the car for a surprise, but don’t hold your breath. This is one for the patience test. The best call is probably to wait for the next proper groundswell.
Rusty out.
