The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it. Honestly, it's a tough run of it for the next couple of weeks. The whole 16-day window is pretty much a write-off for any kind of decent surf. We're looking at a long stretch of poor conditions with no real standout sessions to get excited about.
The only spot on the radar is Anse Bertrand, and it's classified as a beginner break that's inconsistent. Water temps are sitting at 85°F which is about average for this time of year, so that's a small win.
Kicking off from Thursday the 20th of August, it's a no-go. We've got a tiny 1.0ft swell from the north with a short 8-second period, and the energy is a weak 10. The wind is a fresh cross-shore at 19 mph, churning up a lumpy mess. This pattern just repeats day after day through to the end of the month. The swell is consistently small, between 0.7ft and 1.0ft, with the combined energy rarely breaking past 20. It's a lot of moderate to fresh cross-shore winds, making for chop and generally poor surf. There are a few morning windows on the 22nd, 23rd, and 25th of August where the wind cleans up to a cross-off, but the swell is still laughably small.
We do see a slight bump in the swell around the 27th and 28th of August, with it pushing up to 2ft from the northeast. The period also stretches out to 13 and 12 seconds, which brings a bit more shape. The combined energy gets up to a moderate 104 on the afternoon of the 27th. But the wind stays stubbornly cross-shore at 16-19 mph, so the surface is going to be a lumpy, cross-chop mess. It's just not worth paddling out for.
The first few days of September are more of the same. Tiny swell, 1.0ft to 1ft, with cross-shore winds. The afternoon of the 2nd of September shows a cleaner cross-off wind, but with a 1ft, 11-second swell, it's barely a ripple. The energy is a measly 39. Then on the 4th of September, we see a morning of fresh cross-shore winds and a 1.0ft, 12-second swell, but the energy is still weak at 46.
Look, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there's just nothing for a surfer to sink their teeth into. The swell is too small, the wind is onshore or cross-shore almost constantly, and the consistency is poor. Honestly, with the consistent wind and small, choppy conditions, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Hold tight, the forecasts can change, but for now, it's a blank run.
Rusty.
