The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let's cut to the chase on the Almanarre stretch for the next couple of weeks. It's a tough one to write.
Kicking off on Wednesday, September 16th, it's a total non-event. We're talking ankle-deep dribble – a 0.3ft west swell with no energy. The water’s warm at 25°, way warmer than normal for this time of year, but you'd be better off just swimming. All of that first week is a bust. There’s a moment on Thursday the 17th where a 4ft west swell shows some moderate energy (183), but a howling west-northwest wind is on it, smashing it to pieces. It’s all choppy, messy junk.
By Saturday the 19th, the wind cleans right up and goes offshore from the east, but the swell has completely evaporated. We get a few days of flat calm or ripples that don't even register. This total drought of any rideable waves stretches for over a week. The only tiny whisper of hope is on Thursday, October 1st. A tiny 2ft south swell shows up, with a 4-second period and weak energy (19). The wind looks light and clean, but you’d need a longboard and a lot of patience for the smallest of bumps. For a spot that's usually a bit more reliable, this is a pretty normal dry spell. For the next two weeks, this is more of a kite-surfing breeze than a paddle-surfing wave.
Rusty out.

Information about the Almanarre Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Almanarre provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Almanarre can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Almanarre 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 (Almanarre) 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 Almanarre 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.
