The Lowdown
Alright, let’s be straight with you. I’ve scanned the whole 16-day window for Almanarre, and honestly, it’s a bit of a drought. The swell is tiny, the winds are messy, and nothing lines up for a proper surf. There are zero solid recommendations in the whole period. The water temperature is sitting at 75°, which is pretty average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
The only glimmer of something on the horizon is Saturday the 29th of August, but it comes with heavy caveats. You’ve got a 5ft swell from the west at 6 seconds, giving us a moderate combined wave energy (132). That’s a sloppy, short-period bump, and it arrives with a 12 mph onshore wind. It’ll be messy and blown out – not what you’d paddle out for. That afternoon, the wind picks up to 22 mph onshore, same size swell. Not surfable.
Then again on Friday the 4th of September, there’s a 4ft west swell, also short period at 6 seconds, moderate energy (119), but it’s met with a 6 mph onshore wind. The water will be lumpy, no good shape. The rest of the days are mostly ankle-snatchers under 2ft with either glassy or light offshore winds, so it’s flat as a tack.
For a spot that’s exposed to the southwest, the consistent onshore winds kill any chance of quality. There’s no standout break here – it’s all the same location. If you’re desperate for a paddle, Saturday morning the 29th might give you something small and choppy, but it’s more of a kite-surfing session than a proper surf. Expect the crowds to be non-existent at least.
This is an area that can go quiet for stretches, and a blank run like this happens. Forecasts can change, so don’t lose hope entirely, but for now, save the wax.

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.
