Alright folks, Rusty here, breaking down the surf for Anglet - Marinella over the next couple of weeks. To be blunt, it’s a quiet stretch with only one distant shot at something spicy.
The water is 74°, which is a lot warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a nice surprise if you’re jumping in.
From now through most of the period, it’s small and messy. Swell heights mostly run from about 0.7 ft to 3 ft, and the combined swell energy is usually weak, rarely hitting triple digits – like 34 on Wednesday morning, or topping out around 128 on Friday afternoon. The winds are often cross-on or onshore, keeping things choppy.
There’s a couple of cleaner moments. Saturday morning the 11th of July is glassy with a 2 ft NW swell, but the energy is only 112 and the report says it’s just “ordinary.” Monday morning the 13th of July is also glassy but that’s a puny 1 ft swell with only 10 energy – not worth it.
The one highlight is way out on Thursday the 23rd of July. Morning brings a 6 ft WNW swell with 326 energy, and by the afternoon it’s up to a solid 8 ft from the WNW, 8-second period, and a massive 796 energy reading. The wind is light cross-on, so not perfect, but the report warns it’s “too big for this break.” That afternoon session is for experts only. The swell direction (WNW) isn’t quite the ideal W for this spot, so expect some wonkiness. But if you’re a strong paddler, that’s your window.
Before that, the first few days are a total loss. From the 10th through the 22nd of July, it’s a mix of small, weak surf with poor conditions. No consistent rideable waves in that stretch.
In short, everything hinges on that late July spike. If you’re an expert, mark the 23rd of July afternoon. Otherwise, it’s a long stretch of flat water.
Rusty.
