The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here, lookin' at the surf for Les Sablettes over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be honest with ya, it's a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window is pretty grim, a real battle against onshore winds and messy conditions. There's a long gap of pure rubbish from the start, with nothing worth paddling out for until we get to a tiny window of hope on Monday the 17th.
The first few days, from Wednesday the 12th through the weekend, are just a write-off. We're seeing a bit of small swell, maybe 3 ft to 6 ft, coming from the NW or NNW, but the wind is either cross-on or straight onshore, churning everything up. The wave energy is all over the shop, from weak (81) right up to strong (450) on Sunday the 16th, but with that wind, it's just a sloppy mess. Not a chance.
Now, let's talk about the one real standout. Monday morning, the 17th of August. That's your best shot. It's a small window, but it's the only one worth mentioning. The forecast shows a glassy, calm morning, which is a massive positive. The wind is dead calm, 0 mph from the WNW. The swell is a clean 5 ft from the NW with a period of 9 seconds, giving us moderate wave energy (316). This is a reef and point break, so that longer period groundswell will wrap in nicely and offer some proper shape. The water is a bit cooler than normal for this time of year at 71°F, but that's a small price to pay for clean conditions. The light will be perfect, and the crowd situation is "often", so you'll have company, but it'll be worth it. Get on it early.
After that, it's back to the grind. The rest of the week and into the following week sees more of the same: onshore winds, marginal to poor surf, with small 3 ft to 5 ft NW swell. The only other flickers of possibility are a few mornings with a "marginal" call, like Tuesday the 18th, Thursday the 20th, Monday the 24th, and Tuesday the 25th, but the wind is still a cross-on or cross-shore, so the quality will be a long shot. The wave energy is moderate (207, 202, 261, 202) but the conditions just aren't there.
This is a classic case of one good dawn patrol and then a whole lot of waiting. Don't force it on the other days; the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing when that wind is up. Keep an eye on the forecasts, but for now, I'd be locking in that Monday morning session.
Rusty.
