The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour for you.
This 16-day stretch for Almanarre is a real bummer, to be honest. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with hardly a wave to speak of for the first 10 days. The models are showing next to nothing, so you can leave the wetsuit hanging for a while.
The first hint of a pulse comes on Sunday, July 26th, but it’s a messy one. The wind kicks up onshore from the west at 22 mph in the afternoon, and while the swell does manage to hit 5 ft, the period is a short 7 seconds, and the wave energy is moderate (264). That onshore wind is going to turn it into a washing machine. The morning is a little smaller, with a 3 ft swell, but it’s still onshore.
The only real window that’s worth a look is Monday, July 27th. The morning has a 5 ft swell from the west, with a 7-second period and moderate energy (210). The wind is a light cross-onshore from the north-northwest, so it’s not glassy, but it’s the most surfable we’ve seen. The afternoon drops to 4 ft, but the wind dies down, making it a bit cleaner. This is the best of a bad lot. It’s a bit too big for beginners at that size.
Way out in the distance, on Monday, August 3rd, the afternoon shows a 4 ft swell with a 5-second period and weak energy (87). The wind is a light cross-shore, so it might be a long shot worth checking if you’re desperate, but that’s a week and a half away and not something to bank on.
The water is sitting at a very unusual 80°F, which is a massive 7° warmer than normal. Feels like a warm bath.
Honestly, for the next 10 days, you’re not missing much. The set-up looks more interesting for kite surfing when the wind picks up, but for a regular surfer, it’s a long lull. Keep your ear to the ground, but right now, I’d find something else to do.
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.
