The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim stretch for a while. The first week or so is a write-off – tiny, weak swell, mostly onshore, and not worth paddling out for. We’re talking about a solid 8 days where you’d be better off doing anything else. The water temp is a crazy 80.6°, which is way warmer than normal for this time of year—like a bath, but with no waves.
Things finally start to look up on Sunday the 26th of July. That morning, Almanarre wakes up with a clean 5.2ft swell from the west, with a period of 7 seconds. The wind is a gentle cross-offshore breeze, and the combined energy is moderate at 279. That’s the standout of the whole outlook. It’s not huge, but it’s the only session that looks genuinely fun and clean. The afternoon drops off to 4.3ft and the energy fades, so get on it early.
After that, it’s back to small, weak slop for the rest of the run. A few mornings have glassy or offshore conditions, like Monday the 27th with a 2ft glassy west swell, but honestly, the energy is pitiful (16). If you’re desperate for a glide on a longboard, you might get something, but it’s not what I’d call a proper surf.
The only real standout is that Sunday morning. One day, one window. Make the most of it.

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.
