The Lowdown

Alright, let’s have a look at what’s on offer. The next couple of weeks are a bit of a mixed bag. The early part of the period is pretty flat and rough, not much to get excited about. But we’ll work through it day by day.

First up, Anglet - Les Dunes. This is a beginner-friendly spot, and it’s pretty exposed to the west. The water temperature is sitting at 77°, which is a whopping 7° warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s very unusual, so you’ll be in for a warm, tropical-feeling paddle.

The outlook starts off grim. Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th see tiny, weak swell around 2ft to 2ft coming from the NNW, with a short period of only 5 to 6 seconds. The energy is pitifully low (33 to 27). The wind is a messy cross-on or onshore, so it’s choppy and poor. Not worth a look.

Saturday the 25th sees a jump in size, but it comes with a trade-off. Morning brings 6ft from the WNW, and by the afternoon it’s up to 8ft from the same direction. The period is still short at 7 to 8 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 277, then 706, which is moderate to strong. However, the wind is a solid 19 mph onshore. That’s going to be a messy, blown-out mess. For a beginner spot, 8ft is too big for most, and with that onshore wind, it’s really only for the hardcore or kite surfers.

Sunday the 26th stays chunky, with 7ft in the morning and 5ft in the afternoon, from the NW. Periods are a bit better at 8 seconds, and energy is moderate (435 and 245). But the wind is still cross-on or onshore at 12 mph, so it’s choppy and poor.

Monday the 27th is a little smaller, 5ft to 5ft, but the period jumps to 10-11 seconds, which is a nice groundswell. Energy is moderate (445 and 416). The wind is light at 6 mph, but it’s still cross-on, so it’s not clean. The wave comment says “poor surf conditions” for both sessions.

Now, here’s a little glimmer. Tuesday the 28th morning. The swell drops to 4ft from the NW, period of 10 seconds, energy of 273. But the wind goes glassy – ENE at 3 mph. The wave comment says “expect good surf conditions.” This is the standout of the entire outlook. It’s the only session with a score of 2, and it’s glassy. For a beginner spot, 4ft is perfect. The crowd is listed as “sometimes,” so there could be a few others out, but with glassy conditions and a clean 4ft groundswell, this is the best on offer. The long period (10 seconds) means the waves will have some shape and energy, but it’s not too long to cause issues.

After that, things go back downhill. Wednesday the 29th through Friday the 31st see small, weak swell (2ft to 3ft) with short periods (9 seconds) and cross-on winds. The energy is low (110 to 132). Poor conditions.

Saturday the 1st of August has a glassy morning with 3ft swell, but it’s a weak, short-period swell. The wave comment says “surfable but very ordinary.” Sunday the 2nd of August morning is the next potential highlight. The swell picks up to 5ft from the NW with an 8-second period, energy of 304, and the wind is offshore from the E at 9 mph. The wave comment says “expect good surf conditions.” This is a solid option. 5ft is a nice size for a beginner, and offshore wind will make it clean. The afternoon turns messy again with cross-on wind.

The rest of the first week of August is a wash: small, weak swell with cross-on wind, mostly poor or ordinary. The morning of Tuesday the 5th has a glassy start with 3ft, but it’s weak. The last few days into the 7th of August are tiny, with periods dropping to 5-6 seconds and energy down to 29. Flat.

Overall, the standout is Tuesday the 28th morning. Glassy, 4ft, 10-second groundswell. That’s your best bet. The backup is Sunday the 2nd of August morning with a 5ft offshore wind session. The rest is a long stretch of poor to ordinary conditions. There’s a big gap of several days with no real recommendations between the 29th of July and the 1st of August.
