The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on the table for Almanarre over the next couple of weeks.
Alright folks, I'm not gonna sugarcoat it – this is a quiet stretch for Almanarre. The forecast is pretty barren. There's a long gap right from the start with nothing worth paddling out for. Wednesday the 9th and most of Thursday the 10th are a write-off with choppy, onshore junk and weak energy. We're talking combined swell energy values stuck in the teens to near zero – basically nothing doing.
Then, we finally get a flicker of life on Friday the 11th morning. The swell bumps up to a clean 4ft from the WNW with a short 6-second period. The wind turns cross-offshore from the NNE, cleaning things right up. The energy reading climbs to a moderate 121. It’s not a world-beater, but it's the best of a quiet bunch. Saturday the 12th morning is similar – a touch bigger at 5ft from the WNW with that same short period, cross-off wind, and a combined energy of 131. Saturday afternoon sees the wind go fully offshore from the East, with a smaller 3ft NW swell. For a beginner spot that is inconsistent, this is about as good as it gets in this window.
After that weekend, it all falls away. From Sunday the 13th right through to Thursday the 24th of September, it's almost entirely flat or dribble. We’re looking at a massive, dead stretch. You'll see some clean, glassy mornings with no swell, and a few afternoons with tiny, weak bumps of 1ft to 2ft but the energy is pathetic – single digits or low twenties. This is a blank run, and for this area, that's pretty normal. Don't bother. Keep an eye on the charts, it can turn around, but right now there's nothing for a surfer here.
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.
