The Lowdown
Alright, listen up. It's been a rough one out here, and I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. This forecast is mostly a whole lot of nothing. The water's pushing 77°F, which is nearly three degrees warmer than it should be, so it's like a bath out there. But that's about the only good news for a while.
For the first stretch, it's just flat and sloppy. Tiny scraps of swell, bad directions, and a whole lot of wind chop. We're looking at a good ten days of this – a real desert. Don't even bother waxing up unless you're just planning to paddle around and enjoy the warm water.
Now, I do see a tiny spark of hope. As we get into the second week, things start to look a little more interesting. The standout window is shaping up for Wednesday, August 19th. We've got a clean SSE groundswell pushing in at about 3 feet with a 7-second period. It's not huge, but it's energy, and it's coming from the right direction for Les Roquilles (Réunion). The morning is looking super clean with light offshore winds from the N, and the combined swell energy is up at 83. That's the pick of the bunch, no doubt.
For that Wednesday morning, Les Roquilles is where you want to be. It's a spot that doesn't break often, so when it does, it's a bit of an event. It's not going to be big, so it's perfect for the learners in the crew to get some waves. Expect a few others out there, so pick your peaks carefully. The wind swings onshore in the afternoon and it gets messy, so make the most of that morning window.
Honestly, other than that one morning, the rest of the second week is still pretty weak. There's a pulse of 2ft on Saturday the 15th from the west, but the wind is all over the place and the period's short. It's just not worth getting excited about. Give it a miss.
So here's the plan: the next ten days are a blank. Get your gear sorted, rest up, and circle August 19th on the calendar. That's our best chance at a real surf in this whole forecast. But remember, long-range stuff is always a bit of a gamble, so don't book the day off work just yet.

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.
