The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’.
Well, to be straight with you, I’m lookin’ at a pretty bleak picture for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, there’s no good surf in the entire forecast window for Anse Bertrand. It’s a tough one to call, but the numbers don’t lie here. There’s just nothing to get excited about.
We kick things off on Wednesday 12 August with some tiny, weak lumps. Not worth paddlin’ out for. The combined swell energy is just 17, so it’s basically flat. The wind is a fresh 22 mph cross-shore, so the surface is all lumpy and chopped up. The water temp’s around 83° which is pretty average for the time of year.
That same story carries on right through the rest of the week. Thursday 13 August is more of the same – tiny 0.7 ft waves with fresh cross-shore winds. Friday 14 August brings a bit of a longer period, up to 12 seconds, but the swell’s still only 0.7 ft to 1.0 ft with a combined energy of 22–31. Still weak.
Saturday 15 August and Sunday 16 August see a slight tick up in swell energy to the mid-40s and 66, but we’re still stuck with 1 ft waves. The winds on Sunday turn cross-offshore and the surface cleans up, but the swell’s just not there.
After that, from Monday 17 August all the way through to Thursday 27 August, it’s a long stretch of minimal to non-existent surf. The combined energy barely gets into double digits, most of the time it’s under 5, and there are plenty of zeros in there. Not a single recommendation to be found.
This kind of blank run isn't unusual for the area when the conditions line up like this. You’d be better off keepin’ the board in the car and waitin’ for the next weather pattern to shift things around. Forecasts can always change, but right now, there’s just no wave to ride.
Rusty.

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.
