The Lowdown
Righto folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the next two weeks at Almanarre are lookin’ pretty grim for a paddle. There’s one day that’s a real standout, but for the most part, we’re staring down a long, dry spell.
The water is sittin’ at a balmy 76.5°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t be cold while you wait.
We kick off on Friday the 4th with nothin’ worth paddling out for – tiny 1.3ft swell from the WSW with next to no energy (6). It’s clean and cross-offshore in the mornin’, but there’s just no push. That sets the tone. Saturday the 5th afternoon sees a glassy 2.6ft from the west, but the energy is still weak (31) and the conditions are marked as poor. We go all the way through to Monday the 15th of September with absolutely no decent surf. There are a few moments of clean, glassy conditions, but there’s no swell to back it up. Tuesday the 15th of September is where it gets interesting, but it’s a bit of a beast. We’ve got a 7.5ft swell rolling in from the W, with a period of 7 seconds and a very strong combined energy of 494. The wind is light and cross-onshore, so there’s some texture. The problem is, that’s way too much swell for this beginner spot – the drop at low tide would be real sucky. This is expert-only territory, and even then, the setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. There’s a brief window on Wednesday afternoon the 16th with a clean 3ft from the west (76 energy) on a light offshore, but it’s described as very ordinary – surfable, but meh.
Honestly, if you ain’t a kiter lookin’ at the 15th, this 16-day window is a write-off for surfboards. It’s a real flat patch for the area.

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.
