The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's in store for our little corner of the world.
To be straight with you, the next 16 days are looking pretty grim. We've got a long stretch of poor surf conditions ahead. The first real chance of anything rideable doesn't show up until about the second week, and even then it's nothing to write home about. We're looking at a gap of nearly two weeks before we see any sort of swell, and honestly, it's going to be a struggle.
Right now, and for the next several days, it's mostly flat. The only break we've got in the guidance is Anse Bertrand. It's a beginner spot, exposed to the north, but it's also inconsistent. The wind is howling from the east and southeast, mostly cross-off or cross, which isn't ideal for making the most of the tiny, weak waves. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
Around the 6th of August, there's a pulse of swell, but it's a messy one. We get a 4ft swell from the east on Thursday morning, but the period is a short, weak 6 seconds. The combined energy is only 139 (moderate wave energy), and the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-shore, making for lumpy, choppy conditions. It's labelled as "poor surf conditions" for a reason. That same day, the swell drops right back off. This is more of a kite-surfing breeze than a surf session.
The rest of the first week and into the second is a washout. We see tiny bits of swell, 0.3ft to 2ft, from the north and northeast, but the period is consistently short, under 10 seconds, and the energy is weak (mostly under 100). The wind stays strong, often fresh, from the east, keeping the surface lumpy or choppy.
There's a tiny glimpse of something on the 15th of August, a Saturday morning, with a 0.3ft swell from the north with an 11-second period, but the energy is only 2. It's still a "poor surf conditions" call. The wind is a fresh cross-shore, so it's not going to clean up.
Honestly, there's nothing here to get excited about. This is one of those blank runs that happens. The forecasts can change, but for now, don't bother waxing up.

Information about the Anse Bertrand Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Anse Bertrand provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Anse Bertrand can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Anse Bertrand surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Anse Bertrand) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Anse Bertrand may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
