Table - best surf conditions forecast for Anglet - VVF over the next 16 days.
The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break it down. The first week is a real grind. Most of the surf is small, weak, and getting beaten up by onshore winds. There are a few glassy mornings, but they’re tiny. The best of the whole 16 days is a long way out, but it’s the one to circle.
First chance: Tuesday morning, August 11th. Glassy conditions at Anglet - VVF (France). Swell is 2ft from the NW, 10-second period, but the energy is weak (68). Water temp is 76° – that’s much warmer than normal for this time of year. It’s barely worth a paddle, but it’s clean.
Wednesday morning, August 12th – another glassy morning, same 2ft NW swell, 8-second period, even weaker energy (56). Still, glassy is glassy.
Then it goes pretty flat and ugly. The wind is mostly cross-onshore, the swell is tiny, and the quality is poor. This stretch lasts for days.
Now the real standout. It’s a long way out, but Thursday morning, August 20th. Glassy again. Swell is 2ft from the NW, but the period jumps to 12 seconds – that’s real groundswell. Combined energy hits 169 (moderate). This is the best of the whole run. The lines will have more shape and power. For a beach break like Anglet, the long period might make it a little too straight, but with glassy wind, it’s the best option. The afternoon of the 20th sees a bigger energy spike (315) but the wind goes onshore, so morning is the call.
After that, there’s a few more small, clean windows, like Saturday morning, August 22nd, with a cross-offshore breeze and 1ft WNW swell, but it’s weak.
Overall, the first week is a write-off. The only real standout is Thursday morning, August 20th – glassy, long-period, and the best energy you’ll see. But it’s a long-range call, so don’t bet the farm on it yet.
