The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here, checkin’ the waves for the comin’ couple weeks at Anglet - Marinella.
The water’s about average temp for this time of year, nothin’ crazy. But the surf? Well, it’s a slow start. We’ve got a few days of flatness before anythin’ worth mentionin’. Tuesday the 4th and Wednesday the 5th are tiny, with weak combined energy readings of 35 to 47 (weak energy), and the wind is messin’ everythin’ up with cross-onshore chop. Not worth wetting a suit.
Thursday the 6th morning shows a little somethin’. Swell hits 0.9m from the NW, period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy gets to 126 (moderate energy). The wind goes glassy, dead calm. That’s the best we’ve got in the early part. It’s small and clean, but still just ordinary.
Friday the 7th has another glassy mornin’ with 0.8m swell from the NNW, but the period is short at 7 seconds and the energy is weak at 65. It’s clean, but the waves are small and weak. Saturday the 8th mornin’ has a cross-off breeze from the ENE, which gives a clean face, but again, it’s tiny.
Sunday the 9th is a bummer. We get a longer period swell at 11 seconds from the NW, which sounds good, but it’s only 0.6m and the energy is just 99 (weak). The wind is light cross-shore, so it’s not messy, but the swell is too small to do anythin’ with.
The second week is a write-off. Monday the 10th through Thursday the 14th is all poor surf conditions with onshore and cross-onshore wind, tiny swell, and weak energy. Just a dead stretch.
Saturday the 15th sees the swell pick up to 1.2m from the NW, but the wind is cross-onshore and the conditions are poor. The energy is strong at 206 (moderate energy), but the short period (8 seconds) and messy wind make it a no-go.
The only real highlight is Sunday the 16th mornin’. Swell is 1.4m from the NW, period at 7 seconds, and the wind is glassy. The combined energy is 188 (moderate energy). It’s the biggest and cleanest wave we’ll see. The period is short, so the waves will be a bit dumpy, but for a beach break, it’s the best on offer. Get out there early before the wind chops it up.
Overall, it’s a pretty flat outlook. The mornin’ of the 16th is your best chance for a few fun ones.
Rusty.

Information about the Anglet - Marinella Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Anglet - Marinella provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Anglet - Marinella can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
