Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down what we’ve got.
Honestly, it’s a slow start. From Monday the 6th of July all the way through Saturday the 12th of July, the surf is barely a ripple. Most days the waves are under 2 feet, with weak energy, and the wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, keeping things choppy and ugly. There are a couple of glassy mornings, like Tuesday the 7th and Saturday the 11th, but the swell is just too small to do anything with. The water is warm – about 74° – which is a solid 6° above normal for this time of year, so at least you’ll be comfortable while you sit and wait.
The only break we’re watching is Anglet - La Barre, a river/jetty spot that’s inconsistent. It needs a proper push to wake up. That push finally comes on Sunday the 19th of July, with swell jumping to 8 feet to 8 feet out of the NW, and energy readings hitting 537 to 690 – that’s serious power. Periods are short, around 7 to 8 seconds, so it’s not a clean groundswell, but there’s plenty of water moving. The problem is the wind: cross-on to onshore at 12 mph. At that size (over 8 feet on Sunday afternoon), this is only for experts, and the wind is going to rip it up. Honestly, with that much onshore wind and that much power, this looks more like a kite surfing day than a clean paddle session.
Monday the 20th of July still has size – 5 feet to 6 feet from the NW – but it’s still cross-on with rain showers. It’s heavy and messy. After that, the swell drops off quick into the 21st.
So the only real standout for power is Sunday the 19th, but it’s a raw, windy beast. If you’re an expert looking for a challenge, that’s your window. For everyone else, this forecast is a long, quiet wait.
Rusty.
