The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Lookin’ at the next 16 days for Anse-Gaulette and I gotta be straight with you – there’s no good surf on the cards. The reef’s fairly consistent and the water’s warm at 81°F, about 2°F warmer than normal for this time of year, but the wind and swell just won’t line up. We’ve got swell coming in from the southeast and south-southeast mostly, not the ideal south direction this place wants, and the period’s short – 7 to 8 seconds – so it’s weak, choppy junk. The combined energy sits between 309 and 906 for most of the first week, which is moderate, but with cross-onshore winds of 15 to 22 mph it’s just messy. The first few days (July 20–22) are cross-on and lumpy, waves from 4 ft to 6 ft, but the wind kills it. A couple of afternoons on July 27 and 28 the swell picks up to 7–8 ft and the wind shifts cross-shore, but it’s still lumpy cross-chop – only a marginal call at best. Late in the month, around July 29–31 and into August 1, we get a spike in period – 14 to 16 seconds, groundswell – and the combined energy jumps to 1532–2220, strong. But the wind stays cross or cross-on (15–19 mph), and the swell direction is mainly south-southeast or south, which is closer to optimum. Still, the forecast says “marginal” or “poor” – not clean. The waves get up to 8 ft on July 29 afternoon, but that’s with fresh cross-onshore wind, so it’s only for the brave. Honestly, there’s nothing here that’s worth paddling out for. Sometimes these runs happen, but with a break that’s fairly consistent, it’s a bit of a bummer. Keep an eye on the forecasts – they can change. But for now, leave the board in the car.

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