The Lowdown
Alright, I’m gonna be straight with you – this one’s a tough stretch. Let’s look at what we’ve got.
For the Anse Bertrand area, the next week and a half is looking pretty grim. We’re talkin’ tiny, weak energy for days. The swell barely gets a pulse, mostly out of the NNE or NE, and it’s got a short, weak period. The combined energy readings are barely registering, mostly in the single digits or low twenties (12 to 21 range), just weak stuff. On top of that, we’ve got a persistent cross-shore wind, often a fresh breeze, which is just gonna chop things up. Water temp is sitting at 83°, which is about average for the time of year, so nothing weird there.
Honestly, from now through at least the 26th of July, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. It’s a long, flat, bumpy run. You get a couple of afternoons like the 21st and 22nd where the wind goes a little cross-off and it cleans up, but the swell is still pathetic – barely 0.7 ft to 2 ft. That’s not surf, that’s ripple practice.
Now, late in the window, around the 29th of July, there’s a little spike. We see the swell bump up to 2 ft from the NE, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy climbs to a weak 47-49. But the wind is still a fresh cross-shore breeze. It’s better than nothing, but it’s not gonna be a standout.
The only break in the guide is Anse Bertrand, and it’s exposed to the north, so it’s trying to catch what little comes in. It’s an inconsistent spot, and for a beginner spot, this is a tough time. There’s no standout session in this 16-day window. Honestly, with this setup and the persistent onshore/cross-shore wind, this stretch looks more promising for a kite surfer than someone with a paddle. Hold tight, forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a lean run.

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.
