The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with each other. For the next 16 days, this stretch of coast is pretty much a flat spell. I've been looking at the numbers for Almanarre, and honestly, there aren't any proper rides on the cards that I'd point you towards. The swell is tiny, the wind is often in the wrong quarter, and the energy just isn't there.
If you're desperate for a paddle, keep an eye on the very end of the run. Tuesday 1st September afternoon has a pulse of something. The sea is showing a 6ft west swell, period at 6 seconds, with a clean light breeze developing. The combined swell energy is up at 205 – finally a bit of push. The wind will be off the land, making for some tidy faces. It's the only time in the period where the score even registers a glimmer, but the set direction is a bit wonky for Almanarre and the quality is still just average. It may offer a few corner waves after a long drought. The water is around 78°F, so it's about 4° warmer than what you'd normally expect in late August.
Don't hold your breath. This is a real quiet window, and the blank run we're looking at is more normal for this area when the pressure settles in. Forecasts can change, but we need a lot to go right. That's the honest truth.

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.
