The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with ya – there’s nothing to get excited about at Almanarre for a good, long while.
We’re looking at a solid 16-day stretch, and the first real chance of a wave doesn't even appear until early on Sunday, July 26th. Even then, it’s poor. The whole run is a sequence of tiny, weak swells or flat spells with lousy wind. The water is sitting at a very unusual 80°F, which is a massive 7°F warmer than normal for this time of year – feels more like bathwater than the Mediterranean.
Starting Sunday morning the 26th, we get a 4ft W swell, but the cross-on wind from the WNW makes it choppy right out of the gate. That afternoon the wind cranks up to 28 mph straight onshore, shoving that 6ft W swell into a messy, blown-out wall. The combined energy hits 287 (moderate), but forget it – it’s a windsurfing day, not a surfing one.
Monday the 27th is more of the same: a weak 4-4ft W swell with onshore and cross-on winds from the NW and W. It’s just not happening. After that, the swell drops to knee-high dribble or flat for over a week. Tuesday morning the 28th has a tiny 1ft WSW swell with a 4-second period – barely enough to move a sea gull. The next week is full of glassy mornings with zero swell, or light onshore breezes over nothing.
By Tuesday, August 4th, there’s a glimmer: a 1ft WSW swell with a 6-second period under glassy conditions in the morning. That’s your best chance in the whole window – but it’s still just a ripple with combined energy of only 12 (weak).
I’ve got to be honest – I’ve got nothing to recommend here. The forecast is consistent in one way: it’s consistently poor. This isn’t unusual for Almanarre when the windows are this long and flat. Keep an eye on it, because forecasts change, but right now, save the wax for another day.

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.
