The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee, because I’ve got a story for you. This is Rusty, and I’m looking at the next 16 days for Anglet - Les Dunes. Straight up—it’s a slow start. The first week is pretty much a write-off. From Tuesday the 21st right through to Monday the 27th, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. The swell is small, the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the energy is weak. You’ll see a few tiny waves, but they’re messy, blown out, or just plain ugly. Best to save your wax for later.
The real opener comes on Tuesday morning, July 28th. That’s the standout. The sun’s out, the wind drops to zero—glassy, dead calm. Swell is 4 ft from the northwest, period 9 seconds, so it’s a clean, workable groundswell. The combined energy is moderate at 257. It’s not huge, but for a beginner-friendly spot like this, it’s perfect. The direction is a little off the optimum W, but still solid. Crowds are possible, but with conditions this good, it’ll be worth sharing. That morning session is the best on offer in the whole outlook.
After that, the rest of the week is a mixed bag. Wednesday morning, July 29th sees a slight drop to 4 ft, but with a light offshore breeze from the ENE, it’s still clean. Energy is 183—moderate. Not a standout, but a decent backup. Thursday morning, July 30th is glassy again, but the swell is down to 3 ft, energy 119. Surfable, but very ordinary. After that, the wind turns onshore again, and the waves get messy. Friday the 31st through to Wednesday August 5th is mostly poor, with onshore winds and small, choppy swells. There’s a brief moment on Wednesday morning, August 5th when it goes glassy again, but the swell is only 2 ft, energy 48—barely worth a mention.
Overall, if you’re looking for a window, lock in Tuesday morning July 28th. It’s the only real gem. The rest is either flat or blown out. Keep an eye on the forecast, but for now, that’s the call.
Rusty.
