The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a good, hard look at what’s on offer for Le Ruppione over the next couple of weeks.
Well, I’ll be straight with you – the first week is a write-off. A total blank. From now until the morning of the 18th, there’s just nothing doing. The water is sitting at a very unusual 82°F – that’s a full 5°F above what we’d expect for this time of year, which is wild. But all that warm water isn’t bringing any energy. We’ve got a few days of glassy mornings, like the 13th, 14th, and 15th, but with no swell to speak of, it’s just a flat, pretty pond. If you’re itching for a paddle, you’re just going for a float.
The first real sign of life shows up on the morning of Tuesday, 18th August. We get a bump of swell from the WNW at 4ft, with a period of 7 seconds. The energy is moderate (157), and with a light offshore breeze from the east, it’ll be clean. But honestly, it’s a short-period, pretty ordinary little wave. It’s surfable, but nothing to call home about. The afternoon gets chopped up by an onshore wind, so grab that morning window if you’re desperate.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums. The 19th through the 21st offer tiny, weak waves and poor conditions. The 22nd morning shows a little more promise with a 3ft, 7-second swell from the west and clean conditions. The energy is still meager (86) though. It’s a slight improvement, but still a pretty marginal day for an advanced spot like this.
The rest of the run into the 25th is just more of the same: flat spells, glassy mornings with no swell, and a few tiny, onshore bumpy afternoons.
Look, this is an exposed spot that can be inconsistent. When it’s on, it’s on. But this sixteen-day stretch is a lean one. There’s no standout, no session you’d circle on the calendar. The best you’ll get is a mediocre, clean wave on the 18th morning. It’s not a total washout, but it’s close. If you’ve got a kite, this might be more interesting than a surfboard right now.
Stay patient. Rusty.
