The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s happening at Anglet – VVF over the next couple of weeks.
To be honest, it’s a bit of a slow start. The first week or so is pretty lackluster, with small, weak, and messy conditions. The swell is tiny and the wind is almost always cross-onshore, making for poor surf. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing special until things finally start to turn around.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Tuesday, July 28th, early in the morning. That’s when we finally see a proper pulse of NW groundswell arriving, pushing to 3ft with a solid 10-second period. The combined energy jumps to a moderate 234 and the wind is glassy. For the first time in the window, it’s going to be clean. This is the standout session. The swell direction is NW, which is the optimum for this spot. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
Later that same day, the afternoon gets a bit more mixed with a cross breeze, so the morning is the call.
The conditions improve again on the morning of Thursday, July 30th, with another 4ft NW swell (10-second period) and glassy conditions. The combined energy is strong at 341. This is a very good window, but it will be a bit bigger, so it’s more suited to competent surfers. The crowds at Anglet – VVF can be an issue sometimes, so try to get out early.
The following day, Friday, July 31st, the swell pushes up to 6ft with a 9-second period, and the energy is very strong at 465. However, the wind turns cross-shore, and the conditions are marginal. This is a powerful swell, and over 5ft, it’s getting too big for beginners. The period is shorter, so it won’t be as clean as the 28th or 30th.
After that, the swell drops back down to 4ft on August 1st, but the wind is cross-onshore again, so we’re back to ordinary conditions.
So, to sum it up: the first week is a write-off. The best bet is to pencil in the early morning of Tuesday, July 28th, and then again on the morning of Thursday, July 30th. The 31st has the size but the wind is a bit messy. It’s been a quiet run, but the forecasts can change, so keep an eye on it.
Rusty.
