The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at this for the Antibes area, Fort-Carre specifically. The story’s pretty much the same in feet. The next two weeks are about as flat as it gets—no surf to speak of.
From Sunday the 9th right through to the afternoon of Sunday the 23rd, it’s all zeros: no swell, no energy, just flat calm. Winds go light or glassy some mornings, like on Monday the 10th, but there’s nothing to surf anyway. Combined wave energy sits at 0 for almost every single session, so you’re lookin’ at a long 15-day dry spell.
The only real hope pops up on Monday morning, the 24th of August. A small swell finally shows—about 3ft from the southwest, with a short 6-second period. The combined energy is still a weak 58, so it’s not much. Winds are light cross-off from the NNW, keepin’ it clean, so a few slow, weak waves might be rideable early. But don’t expect much—it’s still rated as poor conditions.
Water is way warmer than usual, at about 84°, so you’ll be in shorts no problem.
Fort-Carre is an inconsistent reef spot, and a flat run like this is pretty normal around here. Keep your hopes low and your eyes peeled for a change.
