The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s coming up for the Hossegor region. We’ve got a bit of a mixed bag, but there are some windows of clean, glassy conditions that are worth paddling out for.

The standout period is hands down the next few days. The water is sitting at a noticeably warm 74°, which is much warmer than what we’d normally expect for this time of year, so you might be able to ditch the booties for a bit.

We start things off on Saturday, the 5th of September, with a clean-looking 5ft NW swell at La Graviere, but the wind is a cross-off from the North. It’s surfable, but nothing to get too excited about. The real magic shows up Sunday morning, the 6th. The wind goes glassy from the SE, and we’ve got a solid 5ft NW groundswell with a period of 12 seconds pushing in. The combined energy is moderate (666), and the reports say *expect very good surf conditions*. This is your best window early on. The swell direction is a touch off the optimum, but with that glass, it’s going to be clean and lined up.

Monday morning, the 7th, sees a drop in size to 2ft but with a very long-period W groundswell of 16 seconds. That’s serious energy for a smaller wave, but at a beach break, that long period can make it a bit straight. The wind is onshore, so it’s a marginal call.

Tuesday morning, the 8th, is another glassy session with the wind swinging from the SSW. You’re looking at 4ft from the WNW with an 11-second period. Expect good surf conditions, but you’ll need to be wary of the cross-on wind that’s due to ruin the afternoon.

From Wednesday the 9th through to the 12th, it’s a bit of a write-off. We get a strong (16 mph) cross-onshore wind on Wednesday and a stormy 6ft NW swell with a short period. That’s just lumpy, poor quality. The wind is ruining any chance of decent shape. The kites might be having a field day, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a no-go.

The next real glimmer comes on the weekend of the 13th. Sunday morning, the 13th, is glassy again with a light N wind. The swell is a modest 3ft from the WNW, but with a 9-second period, the combined energy is still moderate (280). It’s clean, but not powerful.

If you’re looking long-range, mark Monday morning, the 14th. It’s glassy with an ENE wind, and a 4ft WNW swell at 10 seconds. The energy is moderate (333). This is a promising, clean session.

The true standout of the entire forecast, and one I’d keep an eye on, is Wednesday morning, the 16th of September. The wind is glassy from the ESE, and we’ve got a 4ft WNW swell with a period of 12 seconds. The combined energy is strong (523). The reports are saying *expect very good surf conditions*. This is a top-shelf morning for La Graviere. The swell is a bit bigger than 4ft, but it’s manageable for an advanced crew. The glassy offshore wind is the key here.

After that, the last week of the forecast fades out. The 17th and 18th are mostly cross-on, and by the 19th and 20th, the swell drops to 1ft and the energy is weak (53). It’s not worth the paddle.

So, to wrap it up: Sunday morning the 6th and Wednesday morning the 16th are your absolute best bets. The 6th offers a bigger, clean groundswell, and the 16th offers a very powerful, glassy session. Don’t waste your energy on the windy days in between.

Rusty.
