The Lowdown
Right, let’s talk about Anglet - Les Dunes. The week ahead has a bit of a slow start before a window of clean conditions shows up, but be warned, a lot of the time the wind just won't play ball. The water is sitting at a very warm 77°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year.
First thing on the radar is Tuesday morning, the 28th of July. The wind is offshore from the east at 6 mph, and that’s the key. The swell is 4 ft from the NW with a period of 10 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate (362). The conditions are clean. That’s the standout in the next few days for sure. The north-west swell is right in the optimum direction for this spot. It’s a beginner-friendly break, so the size is manageable, but with those offshore winds, it’s going to be a really fun session.
Tuesday afternoon, the wind swings to the north at 9 mph, making it cross-shore. The swell drops to 4 ft, and the energy drops a bit (284). It’s still surfable but not as good as the morning. Wednesday morning, the 29th, has a small 3 ft NW swell, but the wind is cross-onshore, so it’s not great.
The rest of the first week and into the next is a run of poor surf conditions. The wind is mostly cross-onshore from the NW or onshore, with small swell. The energy is weak, often below 100. There’s a big gap with nothing worthwhile. Even when the swell bumps up to 5 ft on the 4th of August, the wind is onshore.
Then we get to the weekend of the 8th and 9th of August. Saturday morning, the 8th, has a big 10 ft swell from the NW with a period of 11 seconds – that’s a lot of energy (1815). The problem? The wind is onshore from the WSW at 16 mph. It’s a huge, messy, blown-out mess. The swell is over 8 ft, so it’s only for experts, and with the wind, it’s just a washing machine. Sunday the 9th has a 6 ft NW swell, but the wind is cross-onshore at 9 mph. The texture is poor.
Overall, the best bet in this 16-day window is without a doubt Tuesday morning, the 28th of July. That offshore wind and clean 4 ft NW swell is the only true highlight. The rest of the time, you’ll be battling the cross-onshore or onshore wind. For the beginners, that Tuesday morning is your window.
