The Lowdown
Rusty here, and I'm looking at a forecast that's mostly a flat spell, so let's call it like it is.
For the first week and a half, it's a drought. The water's warm, at 76°, which is way above normal, but there's just no swell to speak of. We're looking at tiny, weak waves with a lot of onshore wind. You might as well take a break.
The first real flicker of hope isn’t until Tuesday morning, August 11th at Anglet - Les Dunes. We get a clean offshore breeze from the east-northeast, and that'll polish up the surf. The swell will be around 5ft from the west-northwest with moderate energy (126), but it's a short period, so the waves will be a bit mushy. It’s a decent option for a paddle. Just a heads up, this spot can get crowded.
Later that same day, Tuesday afternoon, the size jumps up. If you're an experienced surfer looking for a punch, this is it. We're looking at a solid 7ft from the northwest (398 energy). But the wind switches to a cross-shore breeze from the north-northwest, putting a bit of texture on the water. It's not perfect, but it's the most substantial swell of the whole forecast.
Before that, the only other moments worth mentioning are the Friday morning, July 31st and the Monday morning, August 10th. Both mornings are glassy flat, but the swell is just knee-high. On the 31st it’s 2ft (54 energy), and on the 10th it’s 2ft (63 energy). A fun little glide, but nothing to write home about.
It's a long, quiet spell for us. That second Tuesday in August is the one to circle, but don't bet the farm on it.
