The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’ve got the local skinny on the surf for Anglet - Corsaires. Let's break it down.
First thing you gotta know, the water here is hovering around 76°, which is a solid 5° warmer than what we usually see this time of year. That’s a very unusual warm spike, and it’s a nice bonus for the long waits we’re about to have.
Honestly, for the first week, the pickings are thin. We’re looking at a real dry spell from Saturday, August 1st, all the way through until Saturday, August 9th. That’s a solid eight days of poor surf conditions. Sure, Saturday morning on the 1st has tiny 2ft NW swell with glassy NE winds, but it’s weak (energy of 59) and the waves are just too ordinary to get excited about. The rest of that week is a mess of onshore, cross-on, and choppy winds, with swell barely cracking 2ft and short periods around 6-8 seconds. It’s essentially a write-off for a paddle.
Now, the one true standout in this whole 16-day window lands on Sunday, August 9th. The morning of the 9th is the only time we see a real jump in size. Swell hits 4ft from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds. The energy bumps up to a moderate 232, which is a noticeable increase. The winds are light onshore from the WNW, so it won’t be glassy, but it’s the only session with real push. The swell direction is a solid match for this break’s exposed W-facing setup. That 4ft height is a bit much for beginners, but it’s a perfect window for an intermediate surfer looking for the best waves of the month.
After that, Monday the 10th offers a small, clean option with a glassy morning, 3ft NW swell, and a moderate energy of 119. It’s clean, but it’s not the standout. The rest of the second week fades back into the ordinary, with small, wind-affected or onshore junk from the 11th to the 16th.
So, bottom line: if you’ve got a board, just wait until Sunday morning, August 9th. That’s your best shot. The rest of the time, you’re better off leaving the stick in the car.
Rusty.
