The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s check the local stretch.
We’ve got a bit of a slow start, but there are some proper windows to hunt. The water is sitting at 73° here, which is about 4° warmer than what’s normal—that’s a real standout. It’ll feel like a warm bath.
The first real chance is Wednesday morning, September 9th. Anglet - Les Dunes will see a 6ft swell from the NW with a 9-second period. The wind is a light cross-offshore, so the shape should be okay. Moderate energy (486). Good for a test run.
The standout session of this whole run is Thursday morning, September 10th. Glassy wind from the ESE. The swell is a clean 4ft from the NW at 10 seconds (311 energy). It’ll be smooth, lined up, and the crowd will be light. That is your session.
After that, it goes flat and messy until Sunday the 13th. A longer-period NW groundswell hits at 5ft and 13 seconds (878 energy), but the wind is onshore—marginal conditions.
Monday morning the 14th is a good reset: light offshore ENE wind, 4ft NW groundswell at 12 seconds (442 energy). Clean, solid.
The next standout is Thursday morning, September 17th. Offshore cross-breeze, 5ft WNW swell, 11 second period. Strong energy (508). That’s a very good morning.
Friday the 18th and Saturday the 19th both have clean offshore mornings with 4ft to 4ft NW swell—easy going fun.
The very end of the window, Wednesday morning the 23rd, goes glassy with a 4ft NW groundswell at 12 seconds (537 energy). That one looks promising, but it’s a long way off.
Crowds here are just ‘sometimes’, so the glassy mornings on the 10th and 14th are your best bet for a quiet paddle.
Rusty signing off.
