Table - best surf conditions forecast for Le Ruppione over the next 16 days.
Hey, Rusty again. Let’s run through the same outlook, but in feet and miles per hour.
Honestly, it’s a grim picture. For the next week and a half, there’s barely a wave to speak of. We’re looking at a long stretch of flatness starting now and lasting through Wednesday, July 22nd. That’s close to ten days with nothing worth getting wet for.
The only spot we’ve got is Le Ruppione, a beach and reef break that’s inconsistent and exposed. It’s an advanced wave when it fires, but don’t expect much.
So the one real standout—if you want to call it that—is Thursday morning, July 23rd. A tiny 3ft swell is coming in from the WNW with a short period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy is only 70 (weak). That’s not much power. But the wind is glassy from the NE, so it should be clean and smooth. Crowds are possible here, and it’s not big enough to be scary, just small. That’s honestly your best shot across the whole 16 days.
After that, it fades fast. Friday and Saturday see tiny leftovers, and by Sunday, July 26th, we’re back to barely a bump—1ft from the SW, with glassy morning conditions but no real energy.
Forget about paddle surfing for the most part. If you’ve got a kite, some of the windier afternoons might get you out, but for a surfer, it’s pretty depressing. Things can change, but right now it’s a waiting game.
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.
