The Lowdown
Alright folks, it’s Rusty here. Let’s have a honest look at the stretch ahead. I’m gonna be straight with you – this is a tough one. The first real surf we see is a tiny pulse on Monday the 31st of August, but it’s not worth getting wet for. Then we go into a long, dry spell with nothing but flat days and light wind. From Tuesday the 1st of September right through to around Saturday the 5th of September, there’s barely a ripple. That’s a good four or five days of flatness. We get a tiny little bump on Saturday the 5th of September, with some 2ft to 2ft swell from the west, but the period is short – around 4 to 5 seconds – so it’s weak and gutless. The combined energy is only 14 to 15 (weak), and the wind is cross-off in the morning but turns cross-on in the afternoon, so it’s not clean for long. The water is sitting at 76° – that’s much warmer than normal for this time of year, a real anomaly, but it doesn’t help the surf.
After that, we’re back into another flat spell. From Sunday the 6th of September all the way through to Tuesday the 15th of September, the charts are showing next to nothing. There are a few mornings with clean offshore or cross-off breezes, but the swell is either absent or just a tiny 0.7ft to 2ft dribble. The combined energy never gets above 16 (weak), and the periods are short, around 2 to 5 seconds. It’s the kind of setup that looks more interesting for a kite than a paddle. The break is Les Roquilles, which is a beginner spot that’s inconsistent anyway, and with crowds often around, you’re just competing for nothing. The only real highlight is that the winds are light and often offshore or cross-off, so if you’re desperate for a longboard or a foamie, the Monday morning of the 7th of September and the Friday morning of the 11th of September have clean, gentle offshore breezes – but the swell is flat. Not worth the drive.
In short, this 16-day window is a write-off for any decent surf. The area is prone to these blank runs, and this is one of them. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about. Keep the board in the car and hope for a better run next week.
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.
