The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. I gotta level with you—this stretch of coast is lookin’ like a real flat spell for the next couple of weeks. The surf options are lean, real lean. We’re talkin’ days on end with barely a bump. Let’s run through it.
We’re startin’ from right now, Friday the 28th of August, and the first spot with any hint of a wave is Les Roquilles later that afternoon. The water’s touch warmer than normal for this time of year, sittin’ around 74°. But honestly, it’s nothin’ to get excited about—just a weak 2ft SSE swell, period of 6 seconds, with a light cross breeze. Combined energy is a paltry 41. Feels more like a lake ripple than anything worth paddlin’ for.
Saturday the 29th and Sunday the 30th? Forget it. Swell drops to next to nothin’, 0.7ft or less, and the wind swings around. Not a single decent wave in the water. Monday the 31st and Tuesday the 1st of September are more of the same—tiny, weak scraps with hardly any energy. A bit of glassy wind on Tuesday afternoon, but with a 0.7ft S swell (1 energy), there’s just nothin’ to ride.
Wednesday the 2nd of September picks up a little—3ft W swell with a 4-second period, light cross-off wind, clean but weak (21 energy). Still real ordinary. Thursday the 3rd is back down to 0.3ft, then from Friday the 4th through Sunday the 6th of September, we’ve got a flat gap. Days with zero swell. Nothin’. That’s a proper drought.
Monday the 7th of September? A tiny 1ft SSW swell shows up under glassy wind, but it’s still not surfable. The real flicker of hope comes Tuesday the 8th of September morning, with a 3ft S swell (28 energy) and clean offshore wind from the NE. That’s the first time it looks remotely worth a look, but it’s still small. By the afternoon, the wind swings to a moderate cross-shore chop, so that window closes fast.
Wednesday the 9th of September morning—finally a bit more size. We get a 4ft SSE swell, period 5 seconds, with light cross-off wind. Combined energy climbs to 64, and the conditions are clean. It’s not epic, but it’s surfable. That’s about the best we’ll see for a while. The afternoon gets onshore and messy.
Thursday the 10th of September morning is another alright option—4ft SSE swell (period 6 seconds, energy 130) with clean NE offshore wind. That’s the biggest pulse of the whole forecast, though it’s still only a modest swell and the period is short. Still, light offshores and 4ft—that’s the standout. After that, Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th of September fall away again to tiny, weak leftovers.
So the standout? It’s gotta be Thursday the 10th of September at Les Roquilles, with that 4ft SSE swell and clean NE offshore wind in the morning. For this region, that’s as good as it gets in this 16-day window. Even then, it’s nothin’ huge—just a brief moment of clean, rideable waves. The rest of the time, you’re waitin’. Crowds are “often” a thing here, so if you do go, expect company.
All in all, this is a classic quiet stretch. It’s a lot of flat, a few small windows, and just one morning that shines a little. Keep an eye on the forecasts—they can change, but right now, patience is the name of the game.

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.

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.
