The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get stuck into the outlook for Anglet.
To be brutally honest, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and frustrating. We’ve got a long stretch ahead with barely a wave worth paddling for. The swell is tiny, the periods are short, and the wind is mostly a pain. You’ll be waiting a good while before anything even starts to look surfable.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t arrive until Thursday the 6th of August. The morning session is your best bet. We’ll see a small pulse of swell from the NW pushing in at about 4ft, with a moderate combined energy of 187. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the ENE, which will keep the face clean. The period is only 9 seconds, so it’s not a groundswell, but it’s the best we’ll see for a while. This is a beach break, so expect a bit of a bumpy, short-period wave, but it should be rideable. The water is sitting at 76°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, so you won’t need a thick suit.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums. The wind switches onshore again, and the swell drops back to knee-high or less. The following Friday the 14th of August shows a morning glass-off with a 5ft NW swell, but the period is a weak 7 seconds, and the combined energy is only 186. It’s a step up, but still very ordinary. The glassy conditions are a major plus, but the short-period swell will be messy and fat. It’s a beginner-friendly size, but don’t expect much push.
The best of a bad bunch is the early morning of Thursday the 6th of August. The light offshore wind and the clean conditions make it the standout. The rest of the 16-day window is mostly a write-off with poor surf conditions and tiny, weak waves. If you’re desperate, the 14th of August morning has a glassy window, but the swell is still lacking.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the charts. Sometimes it doesn’t stay this poor for long.
