The Lowdown
Alright, let's break down what’s on the cards for Anglet - Corsaires. To be honest, the next week and a half looks pretty grim. We’re staring at a long stretch of small, weak, and mostly messy conditions. From now until roughly Saturday, August 22nd, it’s a grind. The swell sits below 3 feet, the wind is either cross-on or straight onshore most of the time, and the combined energy is weak, usually in that 40 to 80 range. There are a couple of glassy mornings on the 11th and 12th, but the swell is tiny, around 2 feet from the NW with a short 8-9 second period. You can surf it, but it’s nothing to write home about. This whole stretch is basically a write-off for any decent waves.
After a week and a half of nothing, things finally get interesting. The one true standout, and the only session I’m really fired up for, is Sunday, August 23rd. The early morning is the pick of the bunch. We’ve got a solid 7 foot NW groundswell rolling in – that’s serious size, only for experienced surfers (it’s over 8 feet). The period is a long 11 seconds, and the wind is glassy out of the north at just 3 mph. For an exposed beach break, that’s just about perfect. The combined energy shoots up to 1123, which is strong, and the call is “excellent.” This is your window. By the afternoon, the wind turns cross-on and the quality drops, so set that alarm.
The next day, Monday the 24th morning, is also a solid option. The swell drops to 4 feet from the NW with a 9-second period, but we get a clean, light offshore from the ENE at 6 mph. The energy is moderate at 447, and the forecast says “good.” This is a much more friendly size for a bigger crew of surfers.
Tuesday the 25th morning offers a nice little end-note – a small but long-period groundswell at 2 feet from the WNW with 12 seconds, and a glassy start. It’s weak energy at 233, so one for the log or the keen.
Mark that 23rd morning in your calendar. It’s nearly two weeks out, so it’s not locked in, but it’s the best we’ve got. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild.
