The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Anse Gaulette.

Right off the bat, it's a bit of a tough run. The whole 16-day window is filled with onshore and cross-shore winds, mainly from the SE, which is going to keep things choppy and lumpy for the most part. The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there.

We start off with a real flat spot. From Monday the 10th right through to Thursday afternoon the 13th, it's all "poor surf conditions" with fresh to moderate cross-onshore winds. The swell is between 5ft and 6ft from the SSE and SE, with periods around 9 seconds, and combined energy sitting moderate, around the 600 to 900 mark (734 to 936). But that wind is just killing it. Not worth paddling out.

Thursday afternoon the 13th shows a bit of a shift. The wind swings to a light onshore from the SSW at 6 mph, and the conditions are described as "unknown," but the swell is still 5ft from the SSE at 11 seconds. It's only rated as marginal. Not a standout.

Friday the 14th is the best we're going to get, but it's still not a classic. Friday morning the swell drops to 5ft from the SSE, with a light cross-on breeze. The real highlight is Friday afternoon: the wind goes glassy, ENE at 3 mph. The swell is 4ft from the SSE, period 11 seconds, and combined energy is 498. The report says "expect good surf conditions." It'll be clean, but the swell is small. For a long period swell like this (11 secs), a point break or reef would be best, but Anse Gaulette is a reef break that's fairly consistent, and the optimum direction is S, so this SSE swell is a bit off. Crowds are sometimes an issue here, so you might have company, but with the glassy conditions, it’s the pick of the bunch.

After that, we drop right off again. Saturday the 15th sees the swell fade to 3ft from the SSE, with light cross-shore winds, but it's marginal. Then from Sunday the 16th all the way through to Tuesday the 25th, it's back to a relentless run of poor conditions. Strong cross-onshore winds (19-25 mph) from the SE, with the swell jumping back up to 6ft to 8ft. The period drops to 8-9 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate to strong (645 to 1001). With that much wind and poor quality, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

To be honest, there's only one real window here: Friday afternoon the 14th. It's not a big swell, but with the glassy conditions, it'll be the cleanest surf of the whole 16-day stretch. The rest is a write-off for a surfer. We've got a long gap from the 15th all the way through to the 25th with no real recommendations. That's a tough blank run.

Rusty.

Information about the Anse Gaulette Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Anse Gaulette provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. 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.
