Table - best surf conditions forecast for Anglet - Les Sables d'Or over the next 16 days.
The Lowdown
Alright, let’s shift gears. Water temps are sitting around 74°, way warmer than normal – nice. Sunday, September 6th at Anglet - Les Sables d’Or has waist-to-chest high swell (4ft) from the NW, 11-second period, combined energy 422 (moderate). But wind is onshore from the NW at 9 mph, so it’s a raw, blown-out mess. Not the session you want.
Monday and Tuesday, 7th and 8th – swell is smaller, 3–3ft, still onshore winds, poor conditions. Just skip it.
Wednesday the 9th shows chest-to-shoulder high (6ft) from the NW in the morning, period 9 seconds, combined energy 554 (moderate). Wind is cross-shore from the north at 9 mph, only marginal. Afternoon gets cross-onshore and choppy. Size is there but the quality is rough.
The standout: Thursday morning, September 10th. Swell is 5ft from the NW, period 10 seconds, combined energy 400 (moderate). Wind is glassy – dead calm. That means clean faces, nice lines. Expect good surf conditions. Crowds are possible, but get in early for smooth rides.
Friday 11th and Saturday 12th mornings – small, 2ft, glassy but weak. Energy drops to 92. Best for a longboard if you’re desperate.
Sunday 13th morning – tiny 2ft swell, but 13-second period (groundswell) and glassy. Energy is 257 (moderate). Clean but barely surfable.
Monday 14th and Tuesday 15th morning – 4–5ft NW swell, 12-second period, combined energy 494–511 (moderate–strong). Tuesday morning (15th) is glassy from the SW – that’s your second best chance. Clean, solid surf.
From Wednesday 16th onward, onshore winds and smaller waves take over. Saturday morning 19th has 4ft NW, 12 seconds, energy 486 (moderate), but cross-shore wind keeps it marginal.
Sunday 21st morning – glassy, but only 1ft from WNW with 13-second period. Barely rideable.
That Thursday morning glass on the 10th is your best bet. The rest is picking through onshore slop or tiny clean windows. Not a classic run, but there’s a moment in there.
