The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening for Les Roquilles over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be honest – it’s a tough watch. There’s a long stretch of flat or near-flat water, and when a little pulse shows up, it’s usually sloppy or weak.
Starting Friday, August 21st in the afternoon: we got a 3ft swell from the west, but it’s cross-shore wind and only 4 seconds between waves. Water temp is 80°, which is much warmer than average, but that’s the only perk. The combined energy is a weak 27, and it’s just messy.
Saturday morning, the 22nd, there’s a 0.7ft pulse from the SSW – clean with light wind – but it’s basically flat. Same story Sunday and Monday: a few 0.3ft to 0.7ft bumps, nothing you’d bother with.
The best chance comes Tuesday morning, August 25th: a 4ft swell from the ESE with clean offshore wind. Still, the period is short at 5 seconds, and energy is only 68 – weak. The report says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” That’s the highlight of the whole forecast.
From Wednesday 26th onward, it’s back to 3ft or less, poor winds, and energy readings in the single digits or low tens. Thursday 27th morning bumps up to 5ft from the SE with 6-second period and energy at 124, but the wind is cross-onshore and choppy. Not a day to get excited about.
From Friday 28th all the way through Saturday, September 5th, it’s a desert – zeros or tiny dribbles. The swell direction never lines up with the break’s ideal SSE, and consistency is unreliable. This kind of flat spell is normal here. Forecasts might turn around, but for now? Leave the stick in the car.
Signing off – 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.
