The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, same story for Le Ruppione, just in feet and miles.
This is a lean stretch at Le Ruppione (beach and reef). Let’s get into it.
On Saturday the 8th, early morning there’s a glassy 3ft swell from the WNW, but it’s a short-period 6 seconds, and the energy is only 66. It’s surfable but very ordinary. By afternoon, the wind turns SW and it’s junk.
Sunday the 9th is dead, with the swell dropping to 1ft and then 0.7ft. From Monday the 10th through the morning of Monday the 17th, it’s a full week of flatness. Nothing to ride.
Tuesday the 18th morning shows a little life: a clean 2ft west swell with offshore wind from the ENE. Still tiny, energy at 27, but it’s clean.
The best window opens Wednesday the 19th morning. Glassy conditions with a 4ft west swell, period 7 seconds, energy 111. It’s surfable but very ordinary. Afternoon gets messy.
Thursday the 20th morning is clean with cross-off wind and a 4ft west swell, energy 152. By afternoon, the swell jumps to 8ft from the WNW, period 8 seconds, energy 1291. That’s serious power, but with onshore wind, it’s for experts only.
Friday the 21st morning is the standout. Swell is 6ft from the west, period 8 seconds, energy 386. Winds are light and cross-off from the SE, so it’ll be clean. Expect good surf. That morning is your best shot.
After that, Saturday the 22nd and Sunday the 23rd drop back to small, weak swell with poor conditions.
Le Ruppione is inconsistent and rarely breaks right. This kind of blank run is normal here. Make your move on Friday the 21st morning.
Rusty.

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