The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at what’s cooking for Anglet over the next couple of weeks.
It’s a slow start, and you’ll want to skip the first few days. Saturday the 25th and Sunday the 26th are a mess – onshore winds, bumpy, with swell around 5 ft to 7 ft, but it’s all short-period windswell and just not worth it. The combined energy is moderate to strong (117 to 361), but the wind ruins it.
Monday the 27th is still marginal, with a 5 ft NW swell and a longer period around 10-11 seconds, which gives it some proper push. The energy is strong (433), but the wind is cross-shore, so it’s choppy.
Here’s the real standout. Tuesday morning, July 28 – that’s the day. The wind is offshore from the east, just 3 mph, and the swell is a clean 4 ft from the NW with a 10-second period. The energy is strong (362), and the water is way warmer than normal, at 77°F – that’s a big anomaly, over 5° warmer, so it’s going to feel like a warm bath. The forecast says “clean” and “expect good surf conditions.” For Anglet (VVF), with the optimum direction from the west, a NW swell works great. The crowd is “sometimes,” so you’ll have company, but it won’t be packed. It’s a beach break, so with that period, the waves will have decent shape.
After that, it goes quiet. Wednesday through early August is mostly small and windy, with poor to marginal conditions. There’s another brief window on Thursday morning, August 6, where we get a 5 ft swell from the NW, but with a short 7-second period. The wind is glassy from the ENE, so it’ll be clean, but the waves will be a bit soft and crumbly. The energy is moderate (204), and it’s described as “expect good surf conditions.” It’s a second option, but not as good as the 28th.
The rest of the second week is small – swell dropping to 1 ft to 2 ft, with only a few glassy mornings. There are several-day gaps with no good surf, so don’t expect a consistent run.
For beginners, that 4 ft on the 28th is fine. The 5 ft on August 6th is pushing it a bit, but still doable for confident beginners. No expert-only days here.
Bottom line: Tuesday morning the 28th is your best bet. Get on it.
Rusty.
