Anglet - Corsaires Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Right then, let’s talk about the next couple of weeks for Anglet - Corsaires.

Alright, the long-range picture here is a bit of a mixed bag. We’ve got a little window of fun surf coming up, but then it goes pretty quiet for a long stretch before a promising pulse shows up deep into the forecast. The standout sessions are definitely the Tuesday morning and that Sunday morning a week and a bit away.

First up, late Monday morning, July 27th. It’s not really on, to be honest. We’ve got a 4ft NW swell, but it's coming from the wrong side with a cross-onshore wind, making things a bit messy. The combined energy is moderate at best (352). The water is 77°, which is 7° warmer than usual for this time of year—that’s very unusual, so you won’t need a thick spring suit, that’s for sure.

The real action kicks off on Tuesday morning, July 28th. This is your pick of the first week. The wind is light offshore from the east, only 3 mph, and the waves are a clean 4ft from the NW. That period is a solid 10 seconds, so there's a bit of push behind it, and the combined energy is a strong 362. It’s a fairly consistent spot here, but because it’s an exposed beach, that longer period groundswell might make it a bit straight. Still, with clean conditions like that, it’s going to be well worth a paddle. Just keep an eye out, as crowds are sometimes an issue here.

After that Tuesday morning, the window really shuts. From Wednesday, July 29th, right through until the end of the first week and into the start of August, the swell drops right off. We’re looking at weak energy readings (down to values like 36, 67, 100 or less), with onshore or cross-onshore winds messing up what little bump there is. There’s a long, flat gap here with nothing really surfable for over a week.

Then, look at this—Sunday morning, August 9th. This is the second standout, and it’s a real long-range promise. The wind is dead calm, glassy, and we’ve got a 5ft NW groundswell coming in. The period is 10 seconds, and the combined energy is a very strong 412. It’s going to be clean, glassy, and with that size, it’s a good all-rounder. Because it’s a long way out, keep your fingers crossed, but this one has real potential for some proper fun waves. After this, Monday the 10th looks a bit bigger with 6ft, but the wind is onshore, so it will be messy and likely too big for beginners, and only for the more experienced crew.

So, for the short term, get out there Tuesday morning the 28th. For the longer game, circle Sunday, August 9th. In between, it’s a lot of flat and choppy nothing.
