The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at what’s coming. The first real surf doesn’t show up until the 26th of July. There’s a gap of a few days with nothing worth paddling for before that.
On the 26th morning, it’s tiny – 0.7ft from the SSW with a period of 4 seconds, combined energy of just 2 (weak). It’s glassy, so you could float around, but don’t expect a ride.
The afternoon of the 26th brings a bit more: 4ft from the W, period of 7 seconds, combined energy of 110 (moderate). The wind is cross-onshore from the WSW, so it’s going to be a bit choppy.
The 27th has some cleaner windows. The morning offers 2ft from the W, period of 5 seconds, with a cross-offshore breeze. The afternoon is better: 2ft from the W, period of 6 seconds, and a clean offshore wind from the ESE. Combined energy is 42 (weak) both times. Small but clean.
The 30th and 31st have some glassy mornings with 0.7ft to 1ft. By the 1st of August, we see a few consistent 2ft to 2ft swells from the SW with clean offshore winds. The best of the whole run might be the morning of the 3rd of August: glassy, 2ft from the SW, period of 5 seconds, combined energy of 12 (weak). For a beginner, that’s a perfect little clean session at Almanarre.
Nothing here is big or powerful. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
If you’re a kite surfer, the afternoon of the 26th with 4ft and cross-onshore wind might be more interesting than a paddle.

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.
