The Lowdown
Alright, let’s be straight about it. The outlook for Anglet - Corsaires is a total bummer. Over the next 16 days, the surf is basically a no-show. It’s a rare run of poor conditions, and I’m calling it a blank spell.
The water is sitting at 76°F right now, which is a full 5°F warmer than usual for the time of year. That’s a big deal – you’ll be feeling that warm water.
The first few days are a washout. Thursday 6th August has a weak 3ft swell from the NW with a short 8-second period, and a cross-onshore wind messing it up. The energy is a low 119 (weak). Come Friday 7th, it’s even smaller – 2ft NW swell with a rubbish 7-second period. The wind is cross-on again, and the energy drops to 55. Saturday 8th sees a tiny 1ft swell, glassy in the morning but then cross-on afternoon. It’s just not happening.
Sunday 9th brings a slight lift with a 2ft NW swell, period hitting 10 seconds, and the energy rises to 101 (moderate). But the wind is onshore or cross-on, and the conditions are still poor. We get a little glimmer of hope on Monday 10th morning: glassy winds, 2ft NW swell, 9-second period, and the conditions are “surfable but very ordinary.” That’s the best we’ll see, but it’s a one-star session at best. Tuesday 11th morning is also glassy, but the swell is still tiny at 2ft, and the energy is a weak 73.
From there, it’s a long, flat slog. The swell stays under 2ft for the rest of the week, with cross-on or onshore winds and consistently poor conditions. The period is often short (6-8 seconds), and the energy stays feeble. There’s a slight bump on Tuesday 18th August morning with a 3ft WNW swell, 9-second period, and energy at 141 (moderate), but it’s still cross-on and poor. The same for Friday 21st August afternoon: a 4ft WNW swell, but it’s a short 6-second period, cross-on wind, and the energy is 168 (moderate). The conditions are still poor.
Honestly, for a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a bad run. The forecast is too small and too messy. It’s a blank for the next two weeks. Keep the board in the car, but don’t get your hopes up. The only thing worth noting is that spot is a beginner-friendly beach break, so if any wave appears, it’s a place to learn, but there’s nothing to learn on right now.
