The Lowdown

Alright, let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks are a grind. We’ve got a long stretch of tiny, weak surf, and the wind isn’t helping. The first real chance at anything rideable is a while off.

Right now, through Wednesday morning, it’s basically flat. We’re talking about 1ft of weak, short-period swell – only 5 seconds – with almost no energy behind it (combined energy of all swells directed here is just 15). The water’s at 75°, which is about normal for this time of year. You’d be floating more than surfing.

That trend holds through the rest of this week and into the weekend. Thursday and Friday are even worse, dropping to 0.3ft. There’s some offshore flow on Thursday morning, keeping things clean, but with nothing to ride, it’s a hood-up-and-watch-the-horizon kind of day. The weekend isn’t much better. Saturday brings a bit of a bump to 3ft but it’s short-period wind chop from the west-northwest and west, blown out and choppy. Not surfable, unless you’re after a beating.

The first small glimmer comes early next week. On Monday, the 1st of September, things go glassy in the morning. There’s 3ft of swell from the west-northwest, with a slightly longer period of 5 seconds and energy building to a moderate 47. It’s still not big, but it’s the cleanest we’ve seen. The afternoon holds up with a light cross-offshore breeze, though the swell drops off a bit. If you’re desperate for a paddle, Tuesday morning is the call, but keep expectations low.

Honestly, that’s about it for the whole run. There are long gaps where there’s literally zero surf – from the 4th through the 5th, and again from the 7th to the 9th, it’s flat-out nothing. The only other blips come on the 2nd of September with a bump to 4ft, but the onshore wind from the west messes it up. And on the 6th, we get 2-2ft of slop, but it’s blown out from the west and southwest with only a 3-second period. That’s not surf, that’s just messy water.

By the 10th, it looks like we’re back to nothing. So, a tough couple of weeks ahead. It’s the kind of stretch where the beach breaks are more interesting for kiting than surfing, honestly. Stick with it, though – it won’t be flat forever.

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.
