The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's chew the fat on this one.
Well, to be straight with you, this 16-day stretch for Almanarre is a bust. The finder has turned up empty for any good waves, so we’ve got nothing to really recommend. It's a long, flat spell with only a few tiny ripples breaking the silence. This sort of blank run is more normal for the area at this time of year.
The only glimmer of anything comes on Wednesday, September 9th, and into Thursday the 10th. On Wednesday morning, we’re looking at a weak, 3ft swell from the WSW, with a short period around 5 seconds. The combined energy is weak at just 51 – that’s just a little wind chop. The real saving grace is the wind: light offshores in the morning going glassy by the afternoon. So the surface will be clean, even if the waves are tiny. This is strictly for the longboard or the foamie crew; the surf quality is still listed as poor. The water is a warm 77°, which is a massive 5° warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s very unusual.
Beyond that little window, it’s a ghost town. The second week of September has some clean, offshore mornings on the 15th and 16th, but with zero swell, there’s nothing to ride. It's a frustrating, flat run. When the wind does howl, like those strong cross-onshore breezes around the 18th, this exposed beach setup might be more interesting for kite surfing than a paddle surf.
A quiet, uninteresting period. It can’t stay this way forever, but for now, just leave the gear at home.
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.
Almanarre is 6 km (4 miles) from Hyeres. If you plan a holiday in Cote d'Azur, look for hotels and other accommodation in Hyeres. Hyeres has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
