The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here again. Let’s break down the next 16 days for Le Ruppione.
It starts off pretty quiet. The first real chance for a paddle comes on Monday morning, 27 July. Before that, Sunday is flat with no energy. The water temp is about 82°F, which is a whopping 6°F warmer than usual – that’s very unusual, like bathwater for this spot.
The big one to keep an eye on is Thursday morning, 6 August – that’s more than a week out, so think of it as promising but not a sure thing. Le Ruppione is a beach and reef setup that’s inconsistent and only for advanced surfers. That morning, we’ve got a solid 8ft swell from the WNW, with a 8-second period. The combined wave energy is a meaty 1473 (moderate to strong), and with zero wind – glassy conditions – it’ll be clean. But look, this spot rarely breaks, so when it does, it’s for the experts. The afternoon swell jumps to 10ft, which is just too big for this break and will be a mess. Stick to the morning.
Before that, Monday morning, 27 July, is a decent fallback: 5ft from the WNW, 8-second period, and glassy ENE wind. It’s clean and surfable, but not a standout. After Monday afternoon, the surf drops to almost nothing through the end of July and into early August. There’s a long gap of tiny or flat days until the big Thursday. Then Friday morning, 7 August, offers a 4ft pulse with glassy conditions, but it’s not a patch on Thursday. The rest of the run to 10 August is basically flat.
So, the word is: if you’re an advanced local and patient, circle Thursday morning, 6 August. For everything else, you’re better off waiting for a better forecast. This stretch is mostly a write-off.
Rusty.
