The Lowdown

Hey, it’s Rusty. Let’s break down what’s coming our way for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, this is a tough one. The whole 16-day window is a bust for good surf. The main problem is the wind – it’s almost always cross-onshore, onshore, or cross-shore, and it’s blowing hard, 12 to 25 mph most days. The ocean is going to be lumpy, choppy, and messy. The swell is there, but with wind like this, it doesn’t matter.

The first recommendation I can even talk about isn’t until Monday, August 3rd. That’s nearly a week of waiting. And even then, it’s just a marginal call. The water is about 81°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. Let’s get into it.

Anse Gaulette (reef break) – This is the only break on the menu. The first hint of anything surfable is on Monday, August 3rd, in the afternoon. We’ve got a tiny 2 ft swell from the S, but with a very long period of 17 seconds. That’s proper groundswell, but it’s not much height. The wind is cross-shore at 12 mph, so it’s messy. The combined energy is moderate (569). Honestly, it’s a marginal forecast, not something to get excited about.

Then on Tuesday, August 4th, the morning jumps up to 8 ft from the SE, period 9 seconds. The wind is still cross-shore but stronger at 18 mph, making it lumpy. The energy is strong (1067), but the conditions are just poor. This pattern repeats for days. The swell hangs around between 4 ft and 10 ft, but the wind almost never lets up. The best you could hope for is a quick paddle on a cleaner hour, but it’s a long shot.

By the second week, from the 7th onwards, the swell gets bigger, pushing 8 ft to 10 ft from the SE, but the wind is relentless – 18 to 25 mph cross-onshore. That’s not surfable for a paddle board; it’s more of a kite-surfing scene. The combined energy gets into the 1200–1600 range, which is strong, but with that wind, it’s just a washing machine. The period hangs around 9 to 11 seconds, so it’s a mix of windswell and some groundswell, but it’s all blown out.

There’s no standout here. The only day that even got a score of 1 out of 10 was the 3rd and 4th, and that’s being generous. The rest are zeros. The 2 ft bump on the 3rd with the long period *might* have been interesting at a point break or reef, but the wind is still cross-shore, so even that’s a stretch. For a reef break, you want clean, offshore conditions, and we’re getting the opposite.

Bottom line: leave the board in the car. The forecast is poor, and it looks like it’s staying that way. Sometimes you get a blank run, and this is one of them. Forecasts can change, but for now, I’d find something else to do.

A general guide to surfing at Anse Gaulette can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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 Gaulette 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.
