Hey it's Rusty. Got some bad news – this forecast is flat as a pancake, and not in a good way.
From day one on Saturday July 4th through the whole 16-day window, there’s not a single realistic surf session at Le Ruppione. The finder says it all – every entry is “poor surf conditions” and scores a zero. We’re looking at a total blank run.
The first week kicks off with a 2ft west swell Saturday morning, period at 7 seconds – combined energy is only 47, so real weak. Water temp is an unusual 78°, which is 6° above average for this time of year. Wind is glassy early, but the waves have no push. It only gets smaller. By Monday the 6th, we’re down to 1ft, and the period drops to 5 seconds. Combined energy falls to 7. The whole week stays under 2ft. The weekend of July 11th and 12th offers a few glassy moments, but the biggest wave is 1ft from the southwest with an 8-second period and energy at just 22 – a puddle slap.
Heading into the second week, Monday the 13th shows 2ft with an 8-second period and combined energy climbs to 31. Winds are calm and glassy in the morning, but the swell is still too small to surf. The rest of the week sees nothing above 1ft, and mostly below 1ft by the weekend. Combined energy figures are in single digits. Sunday July 19th finishes with a 0.7ft glassy morning – barely a ripple.
Le Ruppione is an advanced beach and reef setup, and it’s inconsistent by nature. This kinda dead spell isn’t unusual here. Wind stays light most days, which keeps the surface clean, but with no real swell, it’s a no-go for paddle surfing. The setup might be a little more interesting for kiteboarders on the breezier afternoons.
Honestly, there’s nothing to chase for the entire 16 days. Keep an eye on the forecast – sometimes it shifts – but right now it’s a shore-bound stretch.
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.
