Alright, Rusty here, checking out the long-range for Anglet - Les Dunes. I'm not gonna sugarcoat it: for the next ten days, it’s mostly a bust.
From July 13th all the way through July 26th, the surf is pretty much a non-event. Yeah, there's a little bump on Monday the 13th, a knee-high swell around 5ft from the NW, but it’s a short-period, weak energy wave (combined swell energy at 173). It's surfable, but that's about it. The rest is a graveyard of tiny waves and onshore chop. There's a moment on Saturday, July 18th with totally flat seas, but the swell is a pathetic 2ft. Not worth a second look.
You want the good news? It’s all about Monday, July 27th. The morning is set to be a beauty. Clear skies, glassy conditions with an offshore wind, and a solid 5ft swell from the NW. The period is a decent 9 seconds, and the combined swell energy is a healthy 366 (moderate wave energy). That’s exactly what Les Dunes needs. It’s clean, it’s got punch, and the glassy wind will make it look like a postcard. This is the standout of the entire 16-day forecast. Everything else is just noise.
That afternoon on the 27th, the wind turns onshore, and the swell bumps to 6ft, which gets sloppy and more of a challenge for the average surfer.
Tuesday the 28th of July holds some interest with a morning swell of 6ft and a longer 11-second period. The energy is strong at 866, but a strong onshore wind is going to trash the conditions. It’s a marginal call, better on paper than in the water.
So here’s the plan: sit out the long flat spell. Save your energy. If you can paddle out on the morning of Monday, July 27th, that’s the one. That’s your window for some real fun at Les Dunes.
Rusty.
