The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break it down.

Right off the bat, for the next couple of weeks, Anglet - Les Dunes is not exactly firing. We've got a long stretch of marginal to poor conditions coming up. Most of the first week and a half is going to be frustrating, with small, weak swell and messy winds. The water temp is sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year.

Looking at the first real window, Tuesday morning the 11th of August starts off glassy with a slight WNW breeze and some tiny 2ft NW swell, but it’s very ordinary. That glassy moment is about the only highlight in the early days. The combined energy is weak at this point. After that, we hit a real dry spell. From Tuesday afternoon on the 11th all the way through to Monday morning the 17th, we’re stuck with onshore and cross-onshore winds, with swell barely scraping 3ft and period dropping to 7-8 seconds. The combined energy is low.

Then we finally get a little glimmer. On Tuesday morning the 18th of August, we see a clean session with offshore wind from the ESE at just 3 mph. The swell is only 3ft from the NW with a short 6-second period, but the offshore wind will clean it right up. It’s still not a standout, but it’s the best we’ve seen in a week.

After that, Wednesday the 19th and Thursday the 20th are pretty much a write-off – tiny, weak, and uninspiring.

Now, if you’re patient, the true standout is on Tuesday the 25th of August. That morning is the one to circle. The swell jumps to a solid 5ft from the WNW with a nice 11-second period, and we have clean offshore wind from the ENE at just 3 mph. The combined energy is strong. This is the best setup of the whole forecast, and with those conditions, you’ll get proper, well-shaped waves. It’s a bit bigger, but still manageable for intermediate surfers. The afternoon stays clean but gets a little cross-shore and the swell bumps up to 6ft, which is still good but more challenging.

So, to sum up: don’t expect much until late in the window. Tuesday the 25th of August morning is the standout – get on it.
