The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what's happening at Almanarre.
Honestly, the next week and a half is a bit of a bummer. From Monday the 10th through Sunday the 16th of August, it's flat. The swell is tiny, barely a ripple, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore. The wave energy is in the single digits, and the wave height is stuck under `1.5 ft`. You'd be wasting your time.
Things finally wake up on Monday the 17th of August. The afternoon sees a bump to `3.3 ft` from the west, but it's paired with a strong `15 mph` cross-onshore wind. It's going to be choppy and messy. The energy climbs to `40`, but it's not the best look.
The only real standout is Tuesday the 18th of August. Tuesday morning brings a `4.9 ft` swell from the WNW with a `6` second period and clean, light offshore winds from the NE. The combined energy hits `140` – that's moderate energy, and the clean conditions will make it surfable. It's the best we've seen in days. For the afternoon, the swell picks up to `5.6 ft` from the west, and a strong `22 mph` offshore wind from the east kicks in. That's a fresh, clean offshore wind, which is a huge plus. The energy jumps to `210` (strong energy). At `5.6 ft`, it's getting solid, so it's more for intermediate-to-expert surfers. This is your window.
Wednesday the 19th keeps things going. The morning has a `4.6 ft` WNW swell with light offshore winds, and the afternoon stays clean with a `4.9 ft` west swell. Energy is around `122` to `138`. It's not the standout of Tuesday, but it's still a good day.
After that, it drops off again. From Thursday the 20th onward, the swell fades and the winds turn onshore. A few clean moments pop up on Sunday the 23rd and Monday the 24th, but the swell is barely `1.3 ft`, so it's more of a novelty.
So, the long story short: you've got a long wait until the 18th of August for anything worthwhile. That Tuesday morning and afternoon is your best bet, especially with that clean offshore wind. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises. Keep your eyes on that Tuesday window. That's your wave.

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.
