The Lowdown

Alright, it’s Rusty here, and I’m sizing up the next couple of weeks at Hossegor - La Graviere. It’s a slow start, but there’s some real firepower coming if you’ve got the patience.

Right now, the water is at 74°F, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year – feels like a gift from summer. The first few days are tiny. We’re looking at waves around 2ft to 3ft with very weak combined energy (32 to 129), coming from the WNW. The wind is glassy or light offshore on Wednesday morning, but the swell is just too small. Thursday and Friday are the same deal – small, ordinary waves that are surfable but nothing to get stoked on.

Then it starts to build. Saturday morning, the 5th of September, has a clean 3ft WNW swell with light offshore wind and energy of 257. That afternoon, the swell jumps to 5ft from the NW with a long 12-second period and energy of 533. The wind is cross-shore, so it’s not perfect, but there’s more power. Sunday morning the 6th looks better: 4ft NW swell, 12-second period, clean light cross-offshore wind, and energy of 494. It’s getting interesting.

The real standout is Sunday, the 13th of September. The morning brings a 6ft swell from the WNW with a 12-second period, glassy conditions, and a huge combined energy of 1122 – that’s strong wave energy. This is a proper groundswell, and with the wind glassy, it’s going to be clean and powerful. It’s a high-performance wave, and at 6ft it’s best for experienced surfers who can handle the power. Expect long, lully sets. The afternoon gets cross-shore breezes, so get out early.

The second week has a couple more good windows. Monday morning the 14th has a glassy 5ft NW swell, clean but less energy (405). Tuesday morning the 15th is a real highlight: 5ft from the NW, 11-second period, clean offshore wind from the east, and energy of 582. That’s a solid morning with good shape. Thursday morning the 17th offers a clean 4ft NW swell with cross-offshore wind, but the energy is lower.

La Graviere is a sandbar, fairly consistent, and it can get crowded sometimes. The best swells are from the W and NW, which suit the break. For the bigger days like the 13th and 15th, expect a crowd, but the quality will be worth the battle.

Rusty.
