The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be real—Hossegor - La Graviere is dead for the next week and a half. From Tuesday the 14th through Saturday the 25th of July, the swell is tiny, barely a foot or so, with weak, short-period waves and hardly any energy. The combined energy stays down in the low double digits, mostly under 40. The wind is onshore or cross-onshore most days, chopping things up. A few mornings go glassy, but there’s nothing to ride. It’s a long, flat stretch.
The one bright spot is the morning of Monday the 27th of July. That’s when a proper groundswell rolls in from the NW at 4 to 5 feet, with a 10-second period, and the combined energy hits 322 (moderate). The wind is offshore from the east at 9 mph, keeping it clean. That’s your best shot in the whole 16-day window. It’s a ways out, so keep an eye on it, but it’s the only real standout. The water is much warmer than usual for this time of year, sitting at 75°, which is about 7° above average, so you’ll be surfing in warm water.
Saturday the 25th of July morning shows the first signs of life with a long-period groundswell from the WNW at 15 seconds, but the height is only 1 feet and energy is 146 (moderate)—not enough to ride. By Sunday the 26th, the swell is up to 4 feet with a 12-second period and energy at 425 (strong), but the wind is onshore, so it’s messy. The real payoff is Monday the 27th morning.
For beginners, the 4 to 5 foot swell on Monday is fine, but by Tuesday the 28th, it’s pushing 5 feet, which is a bit much for learners. The morning of Wednesday the 29th looks glassy with 5 feet of swell and a 10-second period, but the wind is light and variable, so it could be a good session if it holds.
The first week and a half is a total bust. The only day to circle is Monday the 27th of July at La Graviere. That’s your window.
Rusty.
