The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, same story in feet and miles. Almanarre is looking pretty sleepy.
We start on Saturday, September 12th. Surf is tiny, about 1ft from the WSW, with a short 4-second period. Combined energy is only (7), very weak. The wind is a gentle cross-offshore from the NNE at 15 km/h, keeping it clean, but it’s just poor surf – not worth the wetsuit. Sunday and Monday are flat or nearly so, with no energy to speak of.
The only possible glimmer comes Thursday morning, September 17th. Swell bumps up to 3ft from the W, period stretches to 6 seconds. Combined energy is still weak at (45). But the wind turns cross-onshore from the NW at 15 km/h, so it’s a bit choppy and messy. Still called poor surf conditions.
From the 18th through the 27th, it’s mostly flat. Some strong onshore winds hit 45 km/h on the 20th, making it ugly out there – better for kite surfing than paddling. There’s a big gap of nearly a week with no rideable waves. The mornings of the 25th and 27th of September look glassy, and on the 27th morning there’s a tiny 1ft, 4-second swell from the W (combined energy 3), but that’s barely a bump. Almanarre is inconsistent, so a quiet stretch like this happens.
Bottom line: nothing stands out as a good session in this 16-day window. The 17th of September was the best of a bad bunch, but still poor. Keep the board waxed for another day.
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.
