The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s see what’s on the menu.

Nothing good right now. That first day, Friday the 28th of August, is a mess – 5.6ft of WNW swell, cross-on wind, and poor conditions. The water is 75.2°, which is about 5° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a big deal, feels like a bathtub.

The real action starts Saturday morning, the 29th of August. Anglet - Les Dunes will be the spot. We’ve got a clean 5.9ft WNW swell, period 9 seconds, and glassy wind from the ESE. That’s a rare combo for this exposed beach, and the energy is strong (584). This is the standout of the whole run. The morning will be glassy perfection, but the afternoon will get chopped again. Expect crowds – this place is sometimes packed, and on a morning like this, it’ll be busy.

Sunday morning, the 30th, is another cracker. Another glassy start with 5.2ft of NW swell, but this one has a longer period – 11 seconds – so more groundswell energy and better shaped waves. Energy is still strong (593). The longer period will make for cleaner lines, especially as the tide comes in. The afternoon again gets ruined by a 12 mph NW wind.

Monday morning, the 31st, is good but a step down – 4.6ft NW swell, glassy, clean. Energy drops a bit (345). It’s a solid session, but not a standout.

The rest of the first week of September is hit and miss. Tuesday morning (1st Sept) is glassy with 4.6ft NW swell, another good window, but the afternoons are all cross-on and choppy. Then from Wednesday the 2nd through to Saturday the 5th, the swell drops under 3ft and the energy gets weak (as low as 46). You’ll find clean, small waves on the 3rd, 4th, and 5th mornings, but nothing special.

We get a little spike on Sunday the 6th of September, with 4.3ft of NW swell, but it’s onshore from the west, so forget it. The next real good window is Monday the 7th of September morning. Clean 3.6ft NW swell, offshore wind from the east, and moderate energy (267). That’s a solid session for the second week.

After that, it’s back to small, weak, and mostly poor until Friday the 11th of September. That morning brings a 5.6ft WNW swell, clean with a cross-offshore breeze, and energy (271). The afternoon goes glassy, with 5.2ft, but the period is short at 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit crumbly. Still, a Friday morning session will be worth it.

The very last day, Saturday the 12th of September, is small and clean again, but the party’s over.

Overall, the best surf is Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th of August mornings. After that, Monday 7th September is the next real highlight. The gap between the 30th and the 7th is a long, quiet stretch of small, average days with a few clean windows. That’s just how it goes sometimes.

Stay frothy.
