Table - best surf conditions forecast for Anglet - La Barre over the next 16 days.
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Anglet - La Barre over the next couple of weeks.
To be honest, it’s a pretty frustrating outlook for the next while. There’s a long stretch of days where the surf is just too small or the wind is all wrong, so you’ll be waiting a good while before anything worth paddling out for shows up. The first real action doesn’t appear until the morning of Friday the 24th of July, and even then, it’s a one-day stand-out.
The only window that really gets the blood pumping is the morning of Friday the 24th of July. We’ve got a clean 3 ft swell rolling in from the NW with a period of 10 seconds, and the glassy conditions are a massive bonus – the water will be like a mirror. The combined energy of the swell is in the moderate range (272), so there’s enough push to get you into a few good ones. This is your best bet by a long shot.
The water at Anglet - La Barre is running at 75°, which is a full 7° warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s very unusual, so you won’t need a thick wetsuit.
The rest of the forecast is a bit of a write-off. From now until that Friday morning, you’re looking at a long gap of over two weeks with basically nothing. The few days after that also look messy, with cross-onshore winds and weaker, shorter-period swell. The spot itself is inconsistent, which makes this kind of blank run more normal for the area.
Keep an eye on the forecasts, but for now, chalk up the 24th of July morning and hope it holds.
