The Lowdown
Alright, checking out the Anglet - VVF scene for the next couple weeks. Water is sitting at about 74°F, which is 4°F above normal, so it’s noticeably warmer than usual for this time of year.
The first few days are flat and ugly. Wednesday afternoon and Thursday are small, messy, cross-on windswell, nothing doing. Thursday morning is glassy but flat.
Friday morning September 4th gives us a tiny bump: 2ft from the WNW, 9-second period, glassy. The energy is weak (58). It’s barely surfable, but it’s the first chance to get wet.
Saturday September 5th morning has 2ft on an 11-second NW groundswell, with moderate energy at 231, and glassy conditions. That’s the first good clean window. Then Saturday afternoon is a standout: 5ft from the NW, 13-second period, combined energy hitting 699. The wind is cross-offshore from the NNE at 15 km/h (9 mph), so it’s clean. That’s your first real call for a session.
Sunday morning the 6th keeps the run going: 5ft NW at 12 seconds, energy 661, cross-offshore SE breeze, clean. Sunday afternoon turns onshore and messy.
Early next week is rough – Monday and Tuesday are onshore and choppy. Tuesday morning the 8th is salvageable with 5ft WNW at 11 seconds, energy 441, and a clean cross-off NE breeze. Good waves.
Wednesday morning September 9th is the next standout: 6ft from the NW, 11-second period, combined energy of 739. The wind is NE at 10 km/h (6 mph), cross-off, clean. This is the best sized and best conditioned swell of the whole forecast. That’s your top pick.
From Thursday the 10th onward, it’s mostly onshore, small, and weak. The 12th and 13th are tiny.
Monday the 14th morning has a weird one: 1ft but a 15-second period NW. That’s super long period groundswell, but no power behind it. Glassy, but energy is only 90. Not worth it unless you’re on a longboard.
Tuesday the 15th morning: 4ft WNW at 11 seconds, energy 319, glassy. Wednesday the 16th morning: 4ft NW at 12 seconds, energy 325, glassy. Both clean but not as strong.
By the 17th we’re fading out into tiny weak energy.
Bottom line: your best bets are Saturday September 5th afternoon, Sunday September 6th morning, and Wednesday September 9th morning. Wednesday the 9th is the standout – biggest swell, best energy, cleanest wind. Don’t miss it.

Information about the Anglet - VVF Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Anglet - VVF provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Anglet - VVF can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.
