The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next sixteen days at Almanarre. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this is a bleak outlook. The swell is almost non-existent for the whole period, and what little we get is too weak and short-period to bother with.
We’ve got a long dry spell right from the start. The first real pulse doesn’t show up until the 26th of July. Until then, it’s flat or tiny, wind-driven junk. The water is 81°F, which is a whopping 8°F warmer than usual – that’s very unusual, so you’ll be sweating in the water, but you won’t be surfing.
The only day with any real size is the 26th of July. The morning brings a 5ft swell from the west with a period of 7 seconds and a combined energy of 175 (moderate). The wind is light and cross from the north, so it’s not terrible, but the period is short. By the afternoon, the swell jumps to 7ft from the west, with the energy hitting 521 (strong), but the wind swings to a moderate cross-onshore from the southwest, making it choppy. That afternoon size is too big for beginners, and only for the experienced, but the onshore wind will mess it up.
The only other faint pulse is on the 27th of July, Monday afternoon. The swell drops to 3ft from the west, period of 6 seconds, energy of 64 (weak). The wind is a fresh offshore from the east-northeast at 30 km/h, keeping it clean, but the wave is tiny and weak.
There’s nothing else. The rest of the 16 days is flat or blown-out junk. For Almanarre, an exposed beach, this kind of blank run is normal when the Mediterranean goes quiet. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on the 26th if the wind works, but for us surfers, it’s a long wait for very little.
Signing off, 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.
