The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty, and I’ve been watching this stretch for a long time. Let’s be honest – the next 16 days are a tough run for Les Sablettes. This is an exposed reef and point setup (Les Sablettes), but the wind is blowing from the wrong directions almost every session, and the swell is mostly short-period, weak stuff. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
We start on Tuesday, 21 July, with a clear sky but a NNE breeze at 9 mph that’s cross-on, making the surf poor. Swell is a tiny 3 ft from the NNW with a period of just 6 seconds – that’s weak, short-period wind swell. The whole first week is a write-off. Wednesday the 22nd is more of the same: same 3 ft swell, onshore winds, no quality. Thursday the 23rd has a light breeze but the swell is still 3 ft and the period is stuck at 6 seconds. Friday the 24th sees a slight bump to 4 ft from the NW with a period of 7 seconds, but the wind is onshore at 16 mph – blown out. Saturday the 25th has a 5 ft NNW swell, but the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-on, making it lumpy and messy. Sunday the 26th is more of the same with 4-5 ft swell and cross-on winds.
We get a slight glimmer on Monday, 27 July – morning shows a 4 ft NW swell with a period of 8 seconds, and a light 6 mph cross-on wind. It’s marginal, but it’s the best of a bad bunch so far. The afternoon is ruined by onshore winds.
The second week is a mixed bag, but nothing to get excited about. Tuesday, 28 July, drops to 4 ft with a 7-second period. Wednesday, 29 July, has a 4 ft NNW swell with a period of 10 seconds – that’s a longer-period groundswell, which is promising for the point, but the wind is still cross-on. Thursday, 30 July, drops to 2 ft – not worth it. The rest of the week through to 5 August mostly hovers around 3 to 3 ft, with one last gasp on Tuesday, 4 August, when a 4 ft NW swell with an 8-second period rolls in, but again the wind is onshore. The standout day is actually Wednesday, 5 August – a 6 ft NW swell with a period of 8 seconds, and a light 6 mph cross-on wind. For a reef and point, that’s got some push, but the wind is still not perfect. It’s the biggest swell of the stretch, but it’s too big for beginners (over 5 ft), and the short period means it’ll be a bit lumpy. Still, for a crew that’s been waiting two weeks, it’s the one day to circle.
Overall, there are no true standouts. The whole 16-day window is a grind. The surf is poor to marginal, the wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, and the swell is short-period. For a reef and point, longer-period swell would be better, but we don’t get that. If you’re after something to ride, the best bet is the last few days of the second week, especially 5 August, but honestly, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing most days. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a quiet one.
Rusty.

Information about the Les Sablettes Surf forecast

A general guide to surfing at Les Sablettes can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 Sablettes 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.
