Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, folks, it's a grim stretch ahead. We've got a long, dry spell on our hands. Looking at the whole 16-day run, the first real chance of anything resembling a surf doesn't pop up until mid-July. From now until around the 18th of July, it's almost completely flat. I'm talking about a good 12 days or so where there’s just nothing doing. The energy is either zero or the waves are so small they're not worth a second look. We're seeing a lot of glassy mornings, but without any swell, it's just a pretty lake.
Le Ruppione is the only break in the game, and it's an exposed beach and reef setup for advanced surfers only. It's known to be inconsistent, and this forecast proves it. The water is sitting at 78°F, which is a good 5° warmer than normal for this time of year – that's notably warm, like bathwater.
There's a bit of a pulse showing up on the morning of Saturday the 19th of July. We've got a WNW swell coming in at 4ft with a period of 7 seconds. That's a short-period, weak swell with a combined energy of (163). It's not big, but it's the biggest we've seen. The wind is glassy in the morning, which would make it clean, but with that short period, the waves are going to be pretty weak and crumbly. It's a real punt, but it's the only show in town.
Then on the 20th of July, Monday morning, we get a tiny 2ft swell from the WNW with glassy conditions again, but the energy is minimal (41). Not really worth paddling out for unless you're desperate for a float.
So, the only faint glimmer of hope is that Saturday the 19th of July morning. If you're an advanced surfer and you've got nothing else to do, you might find a few crumbly little waves at Le Ruppione. Everything else is a flat, wind-blown mess. It’s a tough outlook.
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.
