The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it for the Anglet area, focusing on Anglet - VVF. The water is a balmy 76°F, which is a solid 5°F above normal – feels like a warm bath.
We’re in for a slow burn. Thursday the 6th kicks off with a 3ft NW swell, a light cross-off breeze from the NNE at 6 mph, keeping things tidy. The combined energy is 126 (moderate). The afternoon turns into a cross-on mess, so get your waves in the morning.
Then it’s a long, dry stretch. From Friday the 7th all the way to the morning of Sunday the 16th, the surf is either flat or ugly. Swell sits between 1ft and 2ft from the Northwest, but the wind is onshore or cross-onshore every day, tearing it up. You get a few glassy mornings on the 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th, but the swell is too weak – combined energy is often in the teens or low double digits. It’s a tough go.
Sunday the 16th morning shows a 2ft WNW swell with light NE winds and glassy conditions. It’s surfable, but still weak. Monday the 17th morning is a slight step up: 2ft NW swell, light North wind, glassy, and energy at 92 (moderate).
Tuesday the 18th morning is the first real sign of life. 3ft NNW swell, glassy with a light WSW breeze, and energy at 131 (moderate). The afternoon brings a 4ft NW swell with a 9-second period, pushing energy to 278 (strong), but it’s ruined by a 9 mph cross-on.
The standout, though, is Thursday the 20th morning. The swell is only 2ft from the NW, but the period is a sweet 12 seconds – proper groundswell. The wind is offshore from the East at 6 mph, making it clean. Combined energy is 136 (moderate). For a spot like Anglet - VVF, that long period will wrap in nicely, and the offshore wind will groom it. Crowds are sometimes a factor here, so be ready.
Friday the 21st morning is also a good call. 4ft NW swell, period of 9 seconds, and a light offshore from the ENE at 3 mph. Clean conditions with energy at 183 (moderate).
So, the middle of the month is a washout. The best windows are the 20th and 21st mornings for the cleanest, most lined-up waves. The 18th has the biggest swell but the wind is against it. Stick it out, and the end of the period finally delivers.
