The Lowdown
Right then, let's have a look at what's on the table for Almanarre over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, it’s a pretty grim run for the most part. We’re looking at a long stretch of poor surf conditions kicking off from Friday the 28th of August all the way through to right around the 6th of September. There are a few little pulses of swell in there, but the winds are a mess or the swell is just too small to get excited about. You’re seeing a whole heap of days where the combined swell energy is barely a whisper – values like 5, 11, or even 1 – so it's not worth paddling out for.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until the morning of Monday the 7th of September. It’s still not a classic, but that morning sees some glassy conditions with a light WSW swell around 3ft, coming from the west-southwest with a period of 5 seconds. The combined energy is a bit more noticeable at 74, which is still on the weak side but at least it's something. The wind is glassy, so the surface should be clean. It’s surfable, but it's very ordinary.
The only period worth singling out as a potential standout, and I’m hedging my bets here, is the morning of Thursday the 10th of September. The swell has dropped back to 3ft from the west-northwest (period 5 seconds), but it’s paired with a cross-shore NNW breeze at 9 mph. That's a decent wind direction for Almanarre to keep things a bit cleaner. The energy is a measly 39, so it’ll be weak, but the wind at least gives it a chance of being rideable. It’s the closest we get to a proper session in this entire window, but don't expect any power.
Overall, there’s nothing that screams “go now.” The 7th is the most promising for a quiet, clean paddle, and the 10th might offer something a little more structured with the wind, but it’s all very small and weak. If you're a beginner, it's safe enough on the 7th with the 3ft swell, but the 5ft swell that pops up on the 8th of September is a firm no-go for anyone not well experienced. For the rest of it, you're better off waiting for a proper swell.

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.

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.
