The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's be straight with you—this 16-day outlook for Les Roquilles is a tough one. There's not a single decent wave on the cards. The whole period is a bust, and I mean that plainly. The forecast is showing nothing but poor surf conditions from start to finish.
Looking at the 16-day window, we're in for a long dry spell with no real surf to speak of. The swell is tiny across the board—barely a ripple—with heights mostly under 2 ft and combined energy readings that are weak, often in the single digits (12, 9, 6, 0). The biggest bump comes on the 26th of August with a 3 ft SE swell, but period is a short 4 seconds and the wind is a fresh 30 km/h cross-shore, making it lumpy and messy. Not worth paddling out for.
The situation doesn't improve. From the 27th of August through to the 4th of September, we're looking at flat spells or knee-high dribble. Winds swing from cross-off to onshore, and even the rare glassy moment (like the 3rd of September afternoon) has zero swell to work with—just 0.7 ft of nothing. The break is inconsistent and rarely breaks, and this run confirms it's normal for the area to have blank stretches like this.
The water temperature is a standout though—on the 20th of August, it's 81°F, which is a whopping 8°F warmer than the long-term average. That's a massive anomaly, very unusual for this time of year, making the water feel like a warm bath. If you're a kite surfer, the stronger winds on the 26th and 30th of August with fresh breezes might offer something, but for paddle surfing, there's nothing here.
Look, it's a quiet stretch. Forecasts can change, but right now, there's no reason to get excited. Keep the board waxed and wait for the next system.
