The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here, looking at the Anglet - Les Dunes stretch for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got a real mixed bag coming, with a definite standout session that’s got my pulse up.

The overall pattern shows the swell building from early next week, with a few clean windows, but the real prize is a solid pulse of groundswell towards the end of the first week and into the second. For the first few days, it’s a bit of a tease. Sunday the 13th morning looks prime with clean 4ft surf from the NW, a 13-second period, glassy conditions and combined energy of 545 – that’s a solid, fun wave for a beginner spot. But the wind swings onshore in the afternoon and washes it out. Monday and Tuesday drop off quickly as the swell fades and the wind gets messy. We’re looking at a quiet midweek with small, poor quality waves.

Now, here’s where it gets interesting. Thursday morning the 17th, we start seeing a nice 6ft NW swell (period 11 sec) push in with glassy conditions and energy up at 738. That’s a proper step up in power. It’s still manageable, but the real standout is Saturday morning the 19th. We get a 7ft NW groundswell with a 13-second period, pumping a massive 1537 combined energy. The wind is light offshore from the east, so it’ll be clean. That’s excellent, powerful surf and it’s only for experienced surfers at that size. The period is long, so at a beach break like Les Dunes, it might wall up and close out a bit, but if the sandbanks are right, you’ll get some bomb sets.

Sunday the 20th stays solid at 6ft with glassy conditions in the morning (773 energy), but the onshore wind hits by afternoon. The absolute best of the entire run is Monday morning the 21st. It’s building to a 7ft NW swell, a very long 14-second period, and a massive 1680 combined energy, with zero wind and glassy conditions. That is a serious ocean. Again, expert territory due to the size and power, but if you’ve got the skills, that’s the session to circle on your calendar. The following days slowly wind down, with a 6ft swell Tuesday the 22nd morning that’s still fun and glassy, but the size and energy drop off after that. By the end of the third week and into the last days of September, we’re looking at tiny, marginal waves.

To be clear, for the total beginner, the cleanest and most forgiving window is that Sunday morning the 13th with 4ft and glass. But for power and quality, the standout hands down is that Monday morning the 21st. It’s big, clean, and powerful – a true groundswell pulse. The 14-second period means long waits between sets, so be ready for a paddle, but the payoff will be worth it.

Stay safe out there.
