The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Almanarre over the next couple of weeks.
Well, I’ll be honest with you – this stretch is looking pretty flat and frustrating. The whole 16-day window is a real struggle. There's a big gap of nothing from now until the very end of the period. The first few days through to the end of July offer almost nothing, just tiny dribbles of weak, short-period wind swell that never get their act together. The wind is either onshore or cross-off, but there’s no wave energy to work with.
You’ll be waiting a long time. From the 23rd of July right through to the 2nd of August, it’s a desert. The odd little bump shows up, but it’s all under 2 ft and with combined energy in the single digits (8), so don’t even bother paddling out. The water is a warm 80°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s the only highlight.
The one glimmer, and I mean a real faint one, comes on the morning of Monday the 3rd of August. We finally see a bit of pulse. The swell height jumps to 3 ft from the WNW, with a period of 5 seconds and combined energy of 89. It’s not a groundswell, but the wind is glassy (ENE 5 km/h), which is a major positive. That’s the only time you’ll find clean, glassy conditions on any wave. Almanarre is an exposed beach break, so with that short period (less than 8 seconds), it’ll be a bit crumbly, but it’s the best we’ve got. The water is still warm, but the anomaly isn’t listed for that day.
Take that Monday morning session if you’re desperate. After that, it’s back to near-zero for the rest of the run. It’s a tough outlook, but forecasts can change, and this spot tends not to stay this poor for too long. Keep an eye on it.
Rusty.

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.
Almanarre is 6 km (4 miles) from Hyeres. If you plan a holiday in Cote d'Azur, look for hotels and other accommodation in Hyeres. Hyeres has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
