The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for our local stretch.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a slow start, but the best of the whole 16-day window is early on. The standout is Tuesday morning, 28 July at Seignosse - Les Estagnots (Les-Estagnots). We’ve got a clean 4ft groundswell from the NW with a period of 10 seconds, so there’s some decent energy behind it. The real kicker is the offshore wind from the East at just 3 mph. That’s going to have the waves looking glassy and well-shaped, perfect for an expert-level break like this. The combined swell energy is moderate (318). Water temperature is 77°, which is a massive 6° warmer than usual for this time of year – very unusual, so you might not even need a full suit.
Tuesday afternoon holds up well too, with the same 4ft swell from the NW and a cross-offshore breeze. It’ll stay clean and fun. Monday, 27 July, is a write-off – choppy, cross-onshore wind, and only marginal surf. Wednesday, 29 July, sees the swell drop to 3ft and the wind swings onshore from the W, ruining the shape. The waves get smaller and weaker through the end of July and into the first week of August.
From 30 July right through to 11 August, you’re looking at a long, frustrating gap. Most days have poor surf conditions with onshore or cross-onshore winds and small, weak swell (combined energy values often in the 70-130 range). The swell period drops to 6-8 seconds, making it short-period and crumbly. There’s a brief moment on Tuesday morning, 4 August, with glassy conditions, but the swell is a pathetic 2ft – not worth the paddle out for an expert break. The end of the forecast (9-11 August) shows a small bump in swell to 4ft-4ft, but the wind is a mess, either onshore or strong cross-onshore with rain showers, so it’s going to be lumpy and blown out.
Bottom line: jump on that Tuesday morning session. After that, it’s a long dry spell. The water is unusually warm, but the surf just isn’t there for the rest of the window.
