The Lowdown
Rusty here again, and I’m telling you the same story in feet and miles.
This is a 16-day blank, no question. From Wednesday, July 22nd, all the way to Thursday, August 6th, every surf check at Anse Bougainville comes back as poor. That’s a two-week hole with nothing worth paddling out for.
What’s killing it is the wind. It’s a relentless SE to SSE breeze at 18 to 22 mph, straight onshore. That’s a fresh wind that’ll turn any wave into a mess. The swell sits between 4 and 7 ft, mostly from the SE, with a short period of 8 seconds. A couple of weird mornings show a 3 ft swell from the south with a very long 16-second period, but the wind is still on it, and the report says poor. The wave energy numbers are between 400 and over 1000 (moderate to strong), but it’s all useless with that wind direction. Water temp is 81°F, a touch warmer than average for the season.
There are no standouts. The break is exposed to the SE swell, but the wind is also SE. It’s a total miss. Don’t bother waxing the board. This run is a dead loss.
Rusty.
