The Lowdown
Right then, let’s get a look at the options. The only spot on the radar for the whole 16-day window is Le Ruppione, a beach-and-reef setup that’s exposed to the swell. It’s an inconsistent break, so don’t expect a constant wave train. The water here is a scorching 82°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s a real standout.
The first real chance of a wave worth paddling out for comes on Friday, 24 July, in the morning. You’ve got a 3-foot swell out of the WNW with a short period of 6 seconds, and the wind is light and cross-offshore. The combined energy is moderate (62). It’s surfable, but the conditions are ordinary. The best looking session of the whole forecast is Monday, 27 July, early. The wind is glassy, and while the swell is only 3 feet from the west with a short 7-second period, the combined energy jumps to a moderate 123. That’s a bit more push, and the clean conditions make it the pick of the bunch. For a more advanced surfer, that afternoon sees the swell jump to 6 feet from the west with an 8-second period and strong energy (405), but the wind is onshore, so it’ll be a messy, lumpy affair. The following Tuesday morning, 28 July, is glassy again with a 3-foot west swell, giving another clean but small window.
After that, the surf really drops off. There’s a long stretch of tiny, weak surf and flat spells from the 30th of July right through to the end of the forecast on 7 August. You’ll see a few days of 1-foot waves, mostly with onshore or cross-onshore winds, making for poor conditions. The best of that sorry run is Monday, 3 August, morning, with a 1-foot WNW swell and a light cross-offshore breeze, and Tuesday, 4 August, morning with a 2-foot west swell and glassy conditions. But these are tiny, weak waves with low energy.
Overall, the standout is Monday morning, 27 July, at Le Ruppione, with that glassy wind and moderate energy. For a bit of size, the afternoon of the 27th has the power but the wind ruins it. After that, it’s a long, quiet run.
