The Lowdown
Alright, gang, Rusty here with the skinny for Anse Bougainville. Over the next 16 days – starting July 14 – every single session is showing poor surf conditions. No good options, no highlight, nothing to get excited about. This reef break is usually consistent, so it’s a bit of a drought, but it won’t stay this way forever.
The wind is the main problem: mostly onshore or cross-onshore, blowing a fresh 15 to 22 mph. Swell heights run from 4 ft to 7 ft, periods mostly 7 to 9 seconds (sometimes 10), and the combined energy readings are moderate to strong (317–846). But with that wind, it’s all lumpy and blown out. Water temp is about 80°F, right around normal. The optimal swell direction is SE, and we’re getting that, but the wind’s just wrong.
Honestly, I’d leave the boards in the car for now. Keep an eye out – consistent spots like this usually bounce back. But the next couple weeks, it’s a no-go.
Rusty.

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 Bougainville 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.
