The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it.
Alright, I’ve looked over the next 16 days, and I gotta be honest with you – it’s a bit of a flat spell for the area around Les Roquilles. There's no surf to get excited about. The first real chance of anything worth paddling out for doesn’t show up until Saturday the 12th, and even then, it’s a bit of a messy situation.
The water is running at 77°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s a real standout, almost three and a half degrees warmer than average, which is very unusual.
The only break on the radar is Les Roquilles itself. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, but it’s inconsistent and doesn’t break all that often, which explains the long gaps.
Right now, from the start of September 5th all the way through to Friday the 11th, it’s a total write-off. Tiny, weak swells, mostly under 1ft, with periods of only 3 to 5 seconds, so no energy at all. The combined swell energy is pitiful, barely hitting double digits (3 to 24). Winds are all over the place, but the surf is just too small to bother with.
We finally see a pulse of swell come through on Saturday the 12th. The morning is a no-go with a strong cross-shore wind at 19 mph making a mess of things. By the afternoon, we get a 4ft swell from the west, with a 5-second period, but that wind is still howling from the WNW at 25 mph. That’s a strong cross-shore breeze, creating lumpy, messy cross-chop. The combined energy is a moderate 60, but with that wind, it’s a blown-out mess. Honestly, with that setup, it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The rest of the outlook through to Sunday the 20th is more of the same. Very small swells, if any, and mostly clean winds but nothing to ride. There’s a couple of glassy afternoons on the 11th and the 19th, but with zero swell, it’s just a flat, pretty ocean.
So, the bottom line is, there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. For a spot that’s inconsistent like this, a blank run isn’t unusual. Forecasts can change, but right now, save your energy.
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.
