The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s not sugarcoat it: the next couple of weeks are looking bleak. We’ve got a big gap of flatness at the start, and then just a few tiny moments of barely rideable surf. Expect a three-day dry spell right off the bat.
Almanarre is the only spot in the game, and it’s a tough watch. Starting Monday, September 7th, it’s flat with glassy conditions but no waves at all. That carries through Tuesday and Wednesday morning. The first real sign of anything comes Wednesday afternoon, September 9th, with a 4ft west swell, but it’s short period (6 seconds) and a fresh 19 mph cross-onshore wind from the NW makes it lumpy and poor. Combined wave energy is a weak 80.
Thursday the 10th afternoon offers the best chance: a 3ft west swell at 7 seconds, with glassy, clean conditions. Energy is still low (77), but it’s the cleanest we’ll see. Friday and Saturday mornings (11th and 12th) have a tiny 2ft west swell with clean, offshore winds, but the energy is very low (26 and 23). After that, it’s a desert. From the 13th onward, we’re looking at swells under 1ft, and from the 15th to the 22nd of September, it’s all zeros or 0.3ft dribble. The 19th and 20th finally see solid offshore winds from the east, but there’s almost nothing to ride.
The water is a warm 78°F, which is a wild 7°F warmer than normal for this time of year. Very unusual.
There’s no standout session here. The best you can hope for is a grovel on Thursday afternoon the 10th, but it’s a stretch. If you’re desperate, grab a longboard for that Thursday glass, but don’t expect much. This is just one of those blank runs for the area.
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.
