Table - best surf conditions forecast for Almanarre over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s be real. I’m looking at Almanarre, and the outlook is a total dud. The whole 16 days are a flat, wind-blown disaster.
The first hint of anything doesn’t show up until Friday the 17th of July. We’re talking about a 3ft west swell with a short period of 6 seconds and a combined energy of only 59. That’s weak. The wind is cross-onshore, and by the afternoon it’s a full-on onshore gale at 25 mph. It’s a complete mess.
We get a bit more size on Sunday the 19th of July, with a 5ft west swell, but the period is still short at 6 seconds, and the energy jumps to 164. That’s moderate, but the wind is a solid onshore 25 mph. That’s not surfable for a beginner, and for a more experienced surfer, it’s just a choppy, blown-out mess. Monday the 20th of July looks even worse – a 6ft west swell, 260 of energy, but with a 31 mph onshore wind. That’s a kite session, not a surf session.
The highest swell we see is on Tuesday the 21st of July, with a 5ft west swell and a period of 7 seconds, pushing energy up to 446. It’s a moderate energy, but the wind is onshore again at 16 mph. The setup at Almanarre is a beach, so with that onshore wind, it’s going to be a brutal, bumpy mess.
The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
Honestly, there’s nothing to pick as a standout. The whole period is a bust. The waves are too small, or the wind is too strong. For a spot like this, it’s a normal blank run. It’s a waiting game, mate. The forecast can change, but right now, I wouldn’t bother.

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.
