The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break this down. Rusty here, and I’m looking at Almanarre for the next couple of weeks. The truth is, it’s a pretty bleak stretch.
We start off flat. From Monday the 3rd of August through the middle of the week, the swell is essentially zero or tiny—0.3ft to 0.7ft with periods around 4 seconds. That’s not surf, that’s a bathtub. Winds are light and clean in the mornings, and there’s even a glassy morning on Thursday the 6th, but there’s nothing to ride.
Thursday afternoon sees a tiny pulse: 3ft from the WSW at 6 seconds. The energy is weak (48) and the wind is cross-onshore, so it’s choppy. Not worth suiting up.
Friday the 7th is the most interesting day, but it’s a mixed bag. The morning brings 4ft from the WNW with a 6-second period and moderate energy (174). The wind is light and cross-onshore, so it’s not completely blown out, but it’s not clean. By the afternoon, the wind cranks to 25 mph from the west and it’s onshore, turning it into a mess. The swell drops to 4ft with a 5-second period and energy falls to (74). For a beginner break, 4ft is okay, but with that wind and short period, it’s not pretty. With that much wind and a beach setup, this is looking more like a kite session than a surf session.
After Friday, it’s a long run of tiny surf into the second week. You get a few days with 1ft to 2ft from the west or southwest, but the period is short (4-5 seconds) and the wind is often cross-onshore or onshore. Energy readings are in the single digits or low teens. Nothing here is exciting.
The weekend of the 15th and into Monday the 17th brings clean, offshore winds in the mornings (ENE and NE), but the swell is only 1ft to 1ft. That’s strictly longboard or flat-water territory. Consistency is poor—this spot is inconsistent and it’s showing it.
Bottom line: There are no standout days in this forecast. The best you could hope for is Friday morning the 7th for a few small, bumpy waves if you’re really jonesing. Otherwise, it’s a quiet period. For this area, a long flat spell like this is normal—it’s either tiny or windy here. Forecasts can change, but right now, don’t get your hopes up.
Keep the board waxed and wait for a better call.
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.
