The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get this out there. I’ve been staring at the charts for the next couple of weeks, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s looking pretty grim for a proper surf.
We’ve got a 16-day window that’s kicking off with a whole lot of nothing. For the first stretch, there’s no real swell on the table, so don’t be in a hurry to grab your board. We’re looking at a long, flat spell that runs through the end of August and into the first couple of days of September, with only dribbles of knee-high mush on offer.
The first time we see any kind of pulse is around the 6th of September, but even then it's not setting the world on fire. We get a modest bump in the water, but the conditions are messy, and it’s more of a knee to waist-high wobble than a proper wave. The energy is weak, just 53 units of combined push, and the period is short at 5 seconds, so it’s not going to have any grunt.
The most promising day in the whole run is probably the morning of the 10th of September. We get a little more consistent energy with the swell settling in at 2ft, but the period is still short at 4 seconds. It’s breaking clean with an offshore breeze, but we’re talking about a small, weak wave that’s more for getting wet than getting barreled. The wind is light out of the NE, so the surface should be decent, but the lack of size is the issue.
Like I said, it all revolves around a spot called Les Roquilles. It’s a beach break that’s spotty at best, and it’s not often it has enough energy to get going. It’s a beginner-friendly wave at its core, so if you’re just learning to stand up, this might be okay, but for anyone who’s beyond that, there’s just nothing to work with.
The water is a touch warmer than normal, sitting at 75°F, which is about 3°F above what you’d expect, but that doesn’t help the waves.
Honestly, if you’re looking for a surf trip, this isn’t the window. The few times there’s any size, it’s more than likely to be blown out or just simply lacking any power. It might be a better spell for getting the kite out if you’re into that, but for a traditional paddle session, you’re better off finding something else to do.
The forecasts can always change, and sometimes a blank run like this gets a surprise pulse, but as it stands now, there’s not much to recommend. Keep an eye on it, but don’t hold your breath.

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.
