The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next couple of weeks. It’s a lean stretch, so let’s keep it real.
The forecast is a proper flat spell for the first week and a half. We’re looking at a long gap of nothing really surfable until we get to the second week. From the start of the period right through to the 12th of August, it’s a desert. Tiny, weak slop with periods of 4 to 6 seconds, and a combined energy reading that barely cracks double digits – it's just not worth paddling out for. The water is a balmy 81°, which is a solid 7° warmer than usual for this time of year, so it’s more of a swimming day than a surfing day.
The first real whisper of life shows up on the morning of Wednesday, August 12th. Almanarre - Le Petit Port brings in a 4ft swell from the west, with a combined energy of 131 (moderate). The wind is glassy, coming from the north at just 3 mph. That’s a clean window, but the quality is still just "surfable but ordinary." It’s a reef break, so that long period isn't an issue, but it’s an advanced spot and rarely breaks, so don’t expect much.
The only real standout in this whole 16-day window is the morning of Thursday, August 13th. The swell is 4ft from the west, with a light north-easterly cross-offshore breeze at 3 mph. The combined energy is 64 (moderate). It’s still not pumping, but it’s the cleanest, most ridable shape we’ll get. The morning session will be the call. The afternoon on the 13th sees the swell jump to 6ft, but the wind swings onshore from the south-southwest, ruining it. That's a surf for experts only if it cleans up, but it’s unlikely.
After that, it fades back into tiny, weak dribble for the rest of the run. The 14th of August has a 3ft west swell in the morning with an offshore wind, so it’s clean, but it’s back to ankle-biters. The rest of the period is a write-off.
So, if you’re jonesing, the best bet is the morning of the 13th of August. It’s not a classic, but it’s the only decent window. Otherwise, keep the board in the car and wait for the next forecast.
Rusty.
