The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve got to be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking grim for a paddle. We’ve got very little to get excited about, so don’t be in a rush to wax up. There’s a long, flat gap early on with barely a ripple for several days.

We start off Saturday the 22nd with the wind howling onshore at Almanarre, a messy 3ft to 4ft of weak, short-period slop. The water is sitting at 78°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – a solid 4° above average, so the sea is feeling like a bathtub, but you won’t be surfing it. Sunday the 23rd into Monday the 24th is a complete write-off with zero swell and clean but flat conditions. We stay in the doldrums right through until the end of the month. There’s a tiny pulse on Tuesday the 25th with 0.3ft to 0.7ft, but that’s not even worth a mention honestly.

The first real sign of life doesn’t show until the morning of Saturday the 29th, when a 4ft W swell pops up, but it’s met with a strong 19 mph cross-onshore breeze making it lumpy and poor – combined energy is 166 (moderate), but the onshore wind kills it. That afternoon it drops back to nothing.

Then, finally, a small window. On Sunday the 30th afternoon, we get a 4ft W swell (period 6 seconds, short and weak) with glassy conditions – a 3 mph SSW wind, dead calm. The combined energy is 101 (moderate). It’s the only chance in the whole outlook for something you could actually sit on and catch a wave, but it’s still ordinary quality. The break itself is rated for beginners and is inconsistent here, so it’s not likely to fire. Crowds are possible. If you’re desperate, that Sunday arvo glass-off is your best bet, but don’t expect much.

After that, Monday the 31st and Tuesday the 1st of September offer tiny 2ft to 3ft with onshore or cross winds, and then it’s back to flat calm, clean, and empty through to Friday the 4th. A little cross-off breeze on Wednesday the 2nd and Thursday the 3rd with 0.7ft to 1ft swell – not surfable. The last day, Sunday the 6th, sees a 4ft W swell but with 25 mph onshore wind, making it a complete mess and likely only interesting for kite surfing if anything.

To be honest, if you’re not looking at that Sunday afternoon glass-off (30th August), there’s nothing here. The consistent lack of swell and mostly poor wind means we’re in a real dry spell. Don’t hold your breath.

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.

Almanarre is 6 km (4 miles) from Hyeres. If you plan a holiday in Cote d'Azur, look for hotels and other accommodation in Hyeres. Hyeres has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
