Table - best surf conditions forecast for Anglet - Les Dunes over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's coming up for Anglet - Les Dunes.
The next two weeks are going to be a real test of patience. We're looking at a long, drawn-out flat spell before things finally start to show some life. The water is currently sitting at a very unusual 76° – that's a massive 7° warmer than normal for this time of year.
Saturday morning, the 11th July, there's a tiny 2ft NW swell with a 9-second period pushing through, which only gives a weak 112 total energy. But the wind is glassy, light, and offshore. It’s a beginner-only wave due to the size, and it will be tiny and weak. Still, it's the only window for a paddle for a while.
After that, it's a wasteland. From Saturday afternoon all the way through to Monday morning the 20th July, there is over a week of tiny, blown-out, or just plain un-surfable conditions. The winds are mostly cross-on or onshore, and the swell barely registers.
Monday morning the 20th is the first flicker of hope. The swell bumps up to 4ft from the WNW, with a short 6-second period, creating 138 combined energy. The wind is glassy, and with that small size, it will be clean but still very weak. It's surfable, but nothing to get excited about.
Keep holding out, because the real standout doesn't arrive until Friday 24th July. The swell builds overnight and Friday morning delivers a very solid 5ft NW swell, with a decent 9-second period, and a total energy of 354. The wind is glassy, offshore, and light. This is the perfect combo for Anglet - Les Dunes. The conditions will be excellent, offering proper, clean waves. It's a big call from a long way out, so keep your fingers crossed.
Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th July see the size stick around (4ft to 6ft) and energy staying high, but the winds turn onshore and the rain moves in, so the quality drops off. Friday 24th morning is your clear, one-day target.
Rusty.
