The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for the next couple of weeks at Les Roquilles. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a pretty grim run. We’re looking at a long, quiet stretch with barely a ripple worth paddling for until we get deep into the second week.
The first real glimmer of anything comes on Monday the 14th, but that’s just a tiny 0.7ft swell from the SSW with a period of 3 seconds and combined energy of just 1 – that’s barely a bath splash. The water temp is sitting at 76°, which is 7° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s very unusual, trust me. You’d be more likely to be floating in a pool than surfing.
After that, we’ve got a whole lot of nothing. Morning after morning brings clean conditions with offshore or cross-off winds, but there’s simply no swell to work with. The afternoons sometimes get a little breeze, but it’s all cross-on and messy. Wednesday the 16th shows a pulse – 3ft from the west, 4-second period, energy of 18 – but it’s poor quality. That WNW wind picks up to 16 mph on Wednesday arvo, making it a cross-shore mess. Honestly, that looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Skip it.
The gap of really poor conditions drags on. Thursday the 17th, Friday the 18th, all quiet. Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th – same story. A tiny 1ft on Sunday arvo, but onshore and weak.
Then, finally, on Friday the 25th of September, we get something to talk about. Morning sees a 5ft swell from the ESE, period of 5 seconds, and combined energy of 106 – that’s moderate energy. The wind is light offshore from the north, keeping it clean. This is the standout. It’s not huge, but for this break that’s a surfable wave, and with light offshore winds it’ll be clean. The swell direction is SSE, and the optimum swell for Les Roquilles is from SSE, so that is a direct hit. The break is inconsistent, but when it works, it works. Crowds are often here, so expect company. This is the one to aim for.
Saturday the 26th still has a little pulse – 3ft from the SE in the morning with light offshore – but it’s smaller and lower energy (66). Sunday the 27th drops to 2ft.
Bottom line: we’ve got a long, flat start with barely a ripple until late September. The best shot is Friday the 25th morning, and maybe a look Saturday morning. For a spot that’s inconsistent, that’s about as good as it gets. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
