The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break it down for the Anglet region. It’s a slow start to the period, but hold onto your boards – we’ve got some serious juice coming in the second week.
Right off the bat, ignore the early part of the week. Sunday the 13th looks clean, but the real story is all about waiting. The first standout I’m calling is Sunday morning, September 21st. That’s the day. We’re looking at a solid 7ft swell from the NW with a very long period of 14 seconds – that’s pure groundswell. The wind is dead calm, glassy as can be. The combined swell energy is pounding at 1680, which is strong. This is excellent, powerful surf, but at 7ft it’s strictly for the advanced crew. The long period will make it bend and wrap nicely at Anglet - VVF, a classic exposed beach-and-reef setup. The offshore wind direction is spot-on. It can get crowded here sometimes, so get in early.
Before we get there, Saturday morning, September 19th, is also a serious highlight. 7ft from the NW again, period at 13 seconds, and a light offshore breeze from the east. The energy reading is 1537, not far behind the Sunday. The waves will be clean and powerful. This one is for experienced surfers only due to the size.
After that peak, the swell backs down through the last week of September. By the 24th, we’re down to 3ft and ordinary conditions, and it fades to almost nothing by the 27th and 28th. There’s a significant gap with no real recommendations in the final days.
So to sum it up: the first week is for getting your act together. The true standout is Sunday, September 21st morning, with Saturday the 19th morning as a close second. Both are for advanced surfers only. Mark those dates.
Stay stoked,
Rusty

A general guide to surfing at Anglet - VVF can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.
