The Lowdown
Right, let’s take a look at what’s coming up for Plage Monica. This is a reef break that’s very consistent and takes a solid NW swell. The water temp is sitting at 73°, which is about average for this time of year – nothing unusual there.
Honestly, the outlook is a tough one for the next couple of weeks. The first real chance of anything surfable doesn’t show up until Sunday morning, 26 July, and even then it’s a marginal call. The swell is building to 5 ft from the NNW with a period of 8 seconds, coming from the right direction for the reef, but the wind is a cross-shore from the NE. The combined energy is moderate (264), but the wave comment says it’s marginal. The rest of that Sunday is messy and cross-onshore.
Monday 27 July morning is another marginal window, with 5 ft from the NW and a light cross-onshore breeze. The energy is moderate (255), but the conditions are still not clean. After that, the swells drop off and the wind turns onshore or cross-onshore for days.
We finally get a bit of a glimmer on Thursday morning, 30 July. The swell is only 3 ft from the NW, period 9 seconds, but the wind is glassy – absolute silence. The energy is moderate (111) and the wave comment says it’s surfable but very ordinary. That’s probably the best you’ll get in this whole run, and it’s not saying much.
After that, it’s a desert. From Friday 31 July right through to Friday 7 August, the swell is tiny, the wind is rubbish, and the wave comments are all “poor surf conditions”. There’s one more glassy moment on Tuesday morning, 4 August, but the swell is a pathetic 1 ft from the WNW. That’s barely a ripple.
The long gap of genuinely poor to no surf stretches from the end of July right through the first week of August. There’s nothing here that I’d call a standout. The only real pick is Thursday morning, 30 July, for the glassy conditions, but the swell is weak. If you’re desperate, it’s a paddle. Otherwise, it’s a write-off for the next two weeks. The forecast can change, but right now, this is a tough stretch.

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