The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Well, I’ve got to be straight with you—this stretch of coastline is looking pretty bleak for the next couple of weeks. We’re staring down a long, flat spell with nothing worth paddling out for. For a spot like this, that’s not totally unheard of, but it doesn’t make it any easier to swallow.
Right now, the water's sitting at a warm 82°, which is a solid 9° warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s a big deal—the water’s feeling more like a bath than the ocean, which is fun for a swim but not doing us any favors for surf.
The entire run from Sunday the 9th through to the end of the forecast window is a write-off. We’re talking days on end with zero swell, just little dribbles of windswell that won’t even break properly. The best of a bad bunch is looking at Thursday the 20th, when we might see a small pulse. The morning is the call, with a 3ft swell coming from the west at 6 seconds. The wind will be glassy, with a slight air from the NNE, so it could be clean, but it’s weak-kneed energy. The combined energy is only 51, which is weak. It’s not going to be a day to get excited about.
Honestly, Almanarre is a beach and reef setup, and with the combination of tiny swell, onshore winds, and blown-out conditions, particularly when that 31 mph WNW wind hits on Monday the 24th, this looks way more interesting for the kite crew than for us paddle surfers. There’s just no push, no power, and no shape to work with.
We’re looking at a solid two-week gap with no real surf on offer. It’s a tough run, but that’s how it goes sometimes. Forecasts can change, so I wouldn't completely abandon hope, but for now, keep the board in the car and the fins dry.
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.
