The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here, looking at our local surf window for the next couple of weeks.
We’ve got a nice little pulse of swell moving in to kick things off, but it’s a short-lived affair. The standout is definitely Saturday morning, the 29th of August. The water is sitting at 75°, which is a solid 5° warmer than what we'd normally expect for this time of year – it's feeling like a tropical bath out there.
That Saturday morning, we’re looking at clean, glassy conditions at Anglet - VVF (advanced). The swell is coming in at 6ft from the WNW with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy is sitting at a solid 641 – a moderate push of power. That’s the pick of the entire forecast. The wind is a light ESE breeze, keeping the surface glassy. It’s an advanced break, so you’ll want your wits about you, but if you’ve got the skills, it’s the best session on offer.
Saturday afternoon, the wind swings around to the NNW and it gets a bit messy, so that window is tight.
Sunday morning the 30th cleans up again with glassy conditions and a 5ft NW swell, but the energy drops off a bit. Tuesday morning the 1st of September also looks clean with a similar 5ft NW swell.
After that, the surf takes a real dip. We have a few days of smaller, weaker swell from Wednesday through Friday, with energy readings dropping to three-digit values and then down to two-digit levels. The conditions are ordinary, with cross-on winds and poor surf quality. There’s a bit of a lull there.
We get a little spike of hope on Saturday the 5th of September. The morning looks clean with an offshore ENE breeze and a 3ft NW swell, but the real story is the afternoon. The swell jumps to 5ft from the NW with a very long 14-second period, and the combined energy rockets up to 725. That’s a lot of power, but it’s a tricky one. That long period groundswell can make beach breaks close out, so it might be better suited for a reef or point setup. The wind is a cross-shore, so it’s not going to be pristine.
Sunday the 6th of September morning is another clean session with a 4ft NW swell and offshore winds, worth a look if you’re keen.
The second week fades pretty quickly. From Monday the 7th onward, the swell is small, the energy is low, and the conditions are mostly poor with cross-on winds. The last few days of the forecast are flat with weak, onshore winds, so you’re done until the next system rolls in.
