The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down for Anglet - Corsaires in feet and all that. It’s a rough run for the most part.
The water’s running at 75°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for the time of year. But from Wednesday the 12th all the way through to Monday the 24th of August, it’s mostly heartbreaking – small, weak swells with onshore or cross-onshore winds. The swell rarely gets above 3ft, and when it pushes to 4ft on the afternoon of Sunday the 16th, the combined energy is only 227 – not enough to get stoked on. The period is short too, mostly around 8 seconds, so it’s just lumpy and disappointing. Thursday the 20th sees 4ft in the morning and 5ft in the afternoon with energy readings of 468 and 469, but it’s cross-on shore break chop. A beach break with that period and wind is just a mess – honestly, you’d be better off with a kite board than a paddle board that day.
The one true standout, and I mean the only real day in this whole 16-day window, is the morning of Tuesday the 25th of August. The swell is a clean 4ft from the northwest with a 9-second period, and the wind swings offshore from the east at 6 mph – that’ll glass it right up. The combined energy is 216, and the report actually says “expect good surf conditions” (score 2/10). It’s got a light offshore, and with the water being a touch warm, that’s your session. Crowds can show up ‘sometimes’, so paddle out early.
After that, Wednesday the 26th has a tiny 3ft wave from the west-northwest with a light offshore from the east-northeast – rideable but nothing special. The morning of Thursday the 27th kicks up to 5ft (248 energy), but it’s onshore from the west, so skip it. The afternoon jumps to 8ft from the northwest with a massive 733 energy reading – that’s serious power, but the wind is onshore and the swell’s straight. That one’s for experts only, and even then it’ll be ugly.
So, save your energy. The long wait ends on the morning of Tuesday the 25th – that’s your best bet by a long shot.
