Table - best surf conditions forecast for Anglet - VVF over the next 16 days.
Alright, let's get down to it for Anglet - VVF. The truth is, for the next couple of weeks, it's looking pretty uninspiring. For a stretch of over two weeks, there's just nothing worth getting excited about. The water is sitting at a very unusual 76°, which is way warmer than we'd expect for this time of year, a proper anomaly of 4°F above average. That's a head-scratcher.
Looking at the first few days, starting Thursday afternoon, we've got a tiny 2ft swell from the NW, but the wind is cross-on and it's messy. The combined energy is only 94, which is weak. Friday is the same story, with even smaller waves and poor conditions. Saturday morning clears up with an offshore wind, but the swell is still a paltry 2ft with a period of 9 seconds. The wave energy is moderate at 102, but the surf is described as "very ordinary." It's ridable, but you wouldn't call anyone to tell them about it.
Sunday morning is the only real glimmer here. We get glassy conditions with a light NNE breeze and a 2ft swell from the WNW. The period is 10 seconds, giving it a bit of shape. The energy is weak at 68, but for a brief moment, it'll look clean. It's just so small you'll be scratching for a ride. That's the best of a bad bunch.
After that, the whole second week is a write-off. From Monday the 13th all the way through to Thursday the 24th of July, it's a constant run of tiny, weak swells, mostly under 2ft, with onshore or cross-onshore winds chopping everything up. The wave energy is consistently in the weak to low moderate range, never breaking out of the double digits. By Tuesday the 22nd, we see a 3ft swell with a cross-offshore wind, but that's still not enough to make it worth the paddle. The conditions are just "poor" across the board.
Honestly, for Anglet - VVF, this is a proper blank run. The forecast energy is so low and the winds are so against us that it might actually be more interesting for the kite surfers than for us paddle folk. We'll just have to wait and see if the long-range forecasts change, but for now, I'd hang the wettie up for a bit.
