The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. The only spot on the radar for this whole 16-day stretch is Les Sablettes, a reef and point set-up. The water’s currently sitting at 70°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year – about 3° cooler than usual, so you’ll want a steamer for sure.
Truth is, the next week and a half is a real struggle. From Thursday the 30th of July right through to Saturday the 8th of August, there’s almost nothing worth paddling out for. The swell is tiny, mostly around 2ft to 4ft, and it’s coming from the NW which is fine for the break, but the wind is a constant problem. It’s cross-on from the NNE or N, blowing at 9 to 12 mph, making everything choppy and messy. The wave energy is weak to moderate at best (energy values between 80 and 117), and the period is short, around 6 to 7 seconds, so no grunt behind it. It’s just poor surf conditions day after day.
We finally get a little flicker of life on Sunday the 9th of August. The morning shows a bit of a bump with swell hitting 4ft from the NW, period stretching to 9 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 243 – that’s moderate energy. The wind is light from the NNE at 6 mph, still cross-on, but light enough that it might be rideable. The rating is only marginal, but it’s the best we’ve seen in a week. That morning window is your only real chance, and it’s not much.
The following days from Monday the 10th through to Friday the 14th of August stay frustrating. The swell gets a bit bigger – 5ft to 5ft from the NW, with energy climbing to 346 on the 12th and 14th – but the wind is a mess. It’s either cross-on from the NE at 12 mph, or onshore from the NW at 9 to 12 mph. The surf is too big for beginners (over 5ft) and still messy for everyone else. The period is short, around 7 to 8 seconds, so it’s not going to be the clean, lined-up waves you want. The Thursday the 13th morning has a marginal call with light winds from the NNW, but the swell is a bit raw.
Honestly, if you’re desperate, the standout is the morning of Sunday the 9th of August. It’s the only day that offers a glimmer of clean-ish conditions with a bit of size. After that, Thursday the 14th of August morning has light winds (NW at 3 mph) and 5ft swell, but the period is short and the energy is high but messy. It’s a gamble.
Overall, this is a tough run. The forecast can change, but right now, keep your expectations low and your wetsuit zipped.
Rusty.

Information about the Les Sablettes Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Les Sablettes provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Les Sablettes can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Les Sablettes 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 Sablettes) 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 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.
