The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break this down. For the next couple of weeks, Anglet - La Barre is looking pretty quiet. From Sunday the 19th of July through to Monday the 27th, it’s a long stretch of small, weak swell and rubbish wind. The water is sitting at 77°F, which is much warmer than normal, but that’s about the only bright spot.
The only real window that catches my eye is the morning of Tuesday the 28th of July. You’ve got a 3ft swell from the NW with a 9-second period. That’s not a lot of grunt, but the wind is glassy, dead flat, and clean. The combined energy is a moderate 138, so there’s a little bit there. The break is a river/jetty spot, and it’s inconsistent, so you’ll be sitting and waiting. Winds are calm, so it’s clean. Expect crowds to be possible.
Then, on the morning of Sunday the 2nd of August, we get a 2ft swell from the NW with a 10-second period, and the wind is from the east at 9 mph, making it offshore and clean. The combined energy is a moderate 115. The afternoon of that same day is even cleaner, with a 2ft swell and a light cross-offshore breeze from the NE. Both are small, but they’re the best we’ve got.
The standout is that Tuesday the 28th of July morning. That glassy wind is the cleanest we’ll see. The 3ft swell is small, but for a river/jetty break, clean conditions are everything. For the rest of the forecast, it’s a lot of blown-out, choppy, and weak stuff. The setup is a river/jetty, so it’s not a beach break, but with the moderate energy, you’ll want to pick your tides.
Stay sharp, Rusty.
