The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. I've been staring at the charts for Anse Bertrand, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch ahead. We've got a 16-day window, and right from the jump, there's a big old gap of nothing. The first whisper of a wave doesn't show up until Wednesday morning the 5th, and even then, it’s barely a bump.
The whole period is plagued by a persistent cross-shore wind that’s going to mess up any chance of quality. For the first week, from the 5th through the 12th, we’re looking at tiny, weak swell. The combined energy is laughable, barely cracking 100 (4 to 31 range). You’ll see knee-high slop at best, with a cross-chop that makes it feel like surfing in a washing machine. There are no standouts here, just flat spells. Even when the period stretches out a bit, the size just isn't there.
Then, around the 13th of August, things get weird. The swell direction shifts to the NNE, and the period jumps up to a very long 14 seconds on the 13th morning. That’s proper groundswell energy, but it’s only producing 0.6 ft to 1 ft of height. The combined energy climbs a bit (32), but the wind cranks up to a strong 25 mph cross-shore. For a beach break like Anse Bertrand (Guadeloupe), that long-period swell in these conditions just means it washes through without any shape, and the wind is going to make it a battle. This setup looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The final week, from the 17th to the 19th, offers a slight reprieve. The wind turns cross-off, which at least cleans up the surface, but the swell remains pitifully small at 0.6 ft to 1 ft (combined energy in the 24 to 27 range). It’s clean, but it’s not surfable.
Honestly, there is no “best on offer” here. If you absolutely have to get wet, the cleanest conditions will be on the mornings of the 17th, 18th, and 19th of August when that cross-off wind kicks in. But you’ll be fighting for power on waves that are barely ankle to shin-high. For most of us, this is a two-week blank. A blank run like this is pretty normal for this area when the wind sets in from the east.
Rusty.

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.

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.
