The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at the surf situation for the region around Almanarre.
Look, I'm gonna be straight with you – the next 16 days are looking flat to tiny for Almanarre. There's no real surf to get excited about. The swell is basically non-existent, with wave heights struggling to even reach 2ft for most of the period. The only time we see any real size is around Sunday the 9th of August in the afternoon when a 6ft west swell shows up, but it's being hammered by a near gale-force onshore wind, making it a total write-off for a paddle. The combined wave energy does hit 244 (moderate energy) then, but with that wind, it's more of a kite-surfing setup than anything you'd want to paddle out into.
The first recommendation is for Saturday the 1st of August, but it's a 1ft to 2ft WSW swell with a weak 3-second period – just wind chop, really. The combined energy is a paltry 2 to 7 (weak energy). The wind is cross-onshore, so it's choppy and messy. Not worth a look.
The entire 16-day window is basically a wipeout. There are no gaps of good surf to speak of because there's no good surf at all. The waves are consistently under 2ft, the period is short, and the wind is often onshore or cross-onshore. Even the glassy mornings on Wednesday the 5th and Friday the 7th of August only offer up 1ft to 1ft of swell. It's clean, but there's no power.
For a spot like Almanarre, which is an exposed beach that can pick up swell, this is a pretty blank run. It's a beginner-friendly break, but even beginners need a little push. The only semi-standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Sunday the 2nd of August. You've got a gentle offshore wind from the east and a clean 2ft west swell with a 4-second period. The combined energy is only 9 (weak energy), so it's tiny, but it's the cleanest wave on offer. Still, it's not something I'd be rushing to the water for.
The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no drama there.
I'm sorry to say it, but there's nothing to recommend here. It's a flat spell. Sometimes that's just how it goes in this area. Forecasts can change, but for now, give the board a wax and wait.
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.
