The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk Anse Gaulette. It’s a grim 16 days ahead, and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it. The wind is just hammering this spot from the southeast, never giving us a clean window. The swell is there – the combined energy runs from 631 up to 1493 – but it’s all for nothing when the wind is cross-shore or onshore the whole time. Water temp is about normal for the season.
We start off on Monday, September 14th, with 1.6m of SE swell at 9 seconds, but the wind is 25-30 km/h cross-onshore, making it a lumpy, choppy mess. Tuesday the 15th is bigger, 2 to 2.2m, but the period drops to 7-8 seconds, and the onshore wind is still 35 km/h – it’s ugly. Wednesday the 16th is the same: 2-2.3m, short period, cross-shore. Nothing worth paddling out for.
Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th look a little better on paper – the energy jumps to 1155-1493, swell is 2-2.3m at 9-10 seconds – but the wind is still fresh and cross-shore, so it’s still lumpy. It’s marginal at best. The swell is from SE to SSE, but the optimum for this reef is S, so it’s off-angle too. No standout here.
From Saturday the 19th right through to the end of the month, it’s the same story: 1.4m to 2.1m, 8-9 second periods, and never a proper offshore wind. The only near-decent moment is Thursday, September 24th, when the wind drops to 15 km/h, but it’s still cross-on and the swell is only 1.7m at 8 seconds. Still poor.
There is no good surf in this whole forecast. The wind never plays ball, and the swell direction doesn’t line up with what this reef needs. If you were hoping for a session, you’re out of luck. This is a blank run, and it’s not unusual for this area when the trade winds lock in. Honestly, this looks more like a kitesurf spot than a paddle spot right now. Don’t bother.
