Table - best surf conditions forecast for Hossegor - La Graviere over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for Hossegor – La Graviere. I gotta be honest with you, the next week and a half is looking pretty grim. We’re staring down a long stretch of flat, weak, or just plain messy surf. The water is sitting at a balmy 75°, which is a full 6° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s pretty wild, but it won’t help the waves.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Monday the 20th of July. We’ve got a solid stretch of nothing before that. Sunday the 19th is a write-off, with a messy 5ft onshore wind swell that’s just not worth it. But come Monday morning, the 20th, things flip. We’ll see a punchy 5ft groundswell rolling in from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (227), and the wind is glassy from the NE. It’s clean, it’s got some push, and for a spot like La Graviere, that’s a proper window. The tide will be key, but that morning session is the best we’ve got by a long shot. The afternoon gets wrecked by a 12 mph north cross-shore, so don’t sleep in.
Then we hit another dry spell. Small, weak, onshore junk. It’s not until Saturday the 25th of July that we see some size again, but it’s a mess. A solid 7ft swell from the NW (9 seconds) is pushing through, but it’s being blasted by a 16 mph west onshore wind. The energy is strong (788), but it’s a washing machine. That is strictly for the experts with big boards and bigger balls, and honestly, it looks more like a kite session than a paddle session.
The real standout, and the one you should circle in the calendar, is Sunday the 26th of July. We’ve got a clean 5ft groundswell from the NW, period of 10 seconds, with a light offshore breeze from the east. The combined energy is strong (469), and the conditions are clean. This is the one. It’s a week and a half out, so it’s a long-range promise, but if it holds, Sunday morning at La Graviere is going to be firing. The afternoon gets messy with a 16 mph north cross-shore, so make the most of the morning.
To sum it up: endure the flat spell, enjoy Monday the 20th morning, and pin your hopes on Sunday the 26th morning. The rest of the fortnight is a write-off.
Rusty.
