The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. I’ve looked at the charts for the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it’s a tough stretch for the waves around here.
We’re looking at a long, dry spell with barely a ripple on offer. The first real chance of a wave doesn’t show up until late in the outlook. For the first week and a half, from Wednesday the 5th of August right through to Friday the 14th of August, it’s a flat, sad story. The swell energy is so weak it barely registers, with values like 1 or 9 (weak energy), and the occasional 16 (weak energy). The only spot we’ve got to consider is Les Roquilles, and it’s not exactly pumping. It’s an inconsistent beginner-friendly break, and it’s often crowded when there’s anything to surf. The water is a balmy 79°, which is a hefty 7° warmer than usual for this time of year – very unusual, you could almost leave the steamer at home.
The first little blip of something rideable comes on the morning of Friday the 14th of August. A tiny 2 ft swell from the west (5-second period) with a light cross-shore breeze. The combined energy is just 13 (weak energy). It’s not going to be earth-shattering, but it’s the first sign of life. The morning of Saturday the 15th of August offers a slightly better 3 ft from the WSW (5-second period), with a gentle offshore NNE wind – that’s a major positive, meaning clean little faces. The energy is 29 (weak energy). It’s still tiny, but for a beginner or a longboarder, it might be the only game in town.
The best of the lot, and I mean the only real standout in this whole 16-day window, comes on the morning of Sunday the 16th of August. We’ve got a 2 ft swell from the west (5-second period) with a tidy cross-offshore NW wind, making it clean. The combined energy sits at 24 (weak energy). It’s not a big wave by any stretch, but for this stretch of flatness, it’s the best on offer. The wind is right, the swell direction is workable for Les Roquilles. It’s not a day to get excited about, but it’s a day to get wet.
Beyond that, the afternoon of Monday the 17th of August shows a similar 3 ft from the WSW (4-second period) with a light cross-offshore NNW wind, giving a clean surface. The energy is 17 (weak energy). It’s a repeat of the same small, clean conditions. After that, it looks like we drift back into tiny, poor surf again.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, the mornings of the 14th, 15th, 16th, and 17th of August are your best bets. The rest of the time, the beach is better for a picnic than a surf. The setup at Les Roquilles with these tiny, weak swells and light winds is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on most days. Keep your eyes on the long-range, but for now, patience is the name of the game.
Rusty.
