Les Sablettes Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get into it.

The next couple of days are pretty grim, I won’t lie. We’ve got a bit of swell on the way, but the wind is just going to wreck it. Wednesday and Thursday are write-offs – there’s some energy there, but it’s chopped up and messy. You’re not missing anything.

Things start to look a little better on Friday morning. The wind drops right out and it’s glassy out at Les Sablettes. We’ve got a clean 6ft of NW swell rolling in, with a period around 10 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 557. It’s not huge, but it’ll be fun. The morning is definitely the window before the onshores kick in for the afternoon.

Saturday morning is still decent, just a touch smaller at 4ft from the NNW. It’s glassy again, and the energy is around 484. It’s clean, but the swell’s starting to ease off. Still, you’ll get some fun ones.

Then we hit a bit of a lull. Sunday and Monday drop right off to under 3ft, and the wind is just not your friend. It’s small and messy, not really worth paddling out for.

Now, keep your eyes on Wednesday the 23rd. That’s the one that stands out. It’s glassy in the morning, and we’ve got a solid 3ft of NW swell, but the period is a long 17 seconds. This is proper groundswell, the kind that pushes through with real power. Combined energy is 784, which is a good, solid push. This long period will hold up really well at this reef and point set-up. It’s one of the better clean windows we’ve got in the whole forecast.

There’s another notable one on the morning of Tuesday the 29th. It’s bigger, around 6ft from the NW, but the period is a touch shorter at 14 seconds. The energy is up there – 1231, which is strong. But the wind is a light cross-onshore, so it’s not going to be perfect. Still, there’s a lot of push there, and it could be worth a look if you don’t mind a little texture.

The last real highlight is the morning of Wednesday the 30th. The wind is dead calm, total glass, and we’ve got a clean 5ft of NW swell with a 12-second period. Energy is solid at 635. This is another one where the conditions are absolutely prime. It’s not as big as the 29th, but the clean conditions will make it a much better surf.

After that, things fade out pretty quickly. We’ve got small leftovers but nothing that’s going to get the heart racing.

So, if I’m calling it: the standout is Wednesday the 23rd morning for the clean, long-period groundswell. The other one to circle is the 30th morning for the glassy conditions and solid swell. The 29th has the size, but the wind is just a little off.

It stays pretty quiet after that, but that’s the way it goes sometimes.

Stay stoked.

Rusty.
