The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, lookin' at the charts for the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch ahead for Anse Gaulette. This is a reef setup, and it usually handles a bit of swell, but the wind and conditions are just not playing ball for most of the run.

We're starting off on Sunday the 19th and through the first week, there's really nothing to get excited about. Every day from the 19th right through to the 25th is marked by solid cross-onshore winds, mostly from the SSE or SE, and that's gonna leave the surface choppy and lumpy. The swell hangs around in the 4 to 6 ft range, a mix of short period SE swell. The combined energy is moderate though, sitting between 331 and 763 in that period. But honestly, with that wind, it's a write-off. You'd be fighting a messy, bumpy ocean, and those reef waves aren't going to hold their shape at all. The water is warm, about 81°, running a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's small comfort when the surf is junk.

We then hit a bit of a lull from the 26th where the quality is still poor, though the swell energy drops off a bit. The morning of the 27th brings a slight glimmer – swell picks up to 8 ft from the SE, period is short at 8 seconds, and there's a risk of thunderstorms. The wind finally eases to a gentle cross-shore breeze. The combined energy is a solid 722, so there's some push. This is the *only* time in the whole run where the conditions are marginal enough to even consider a paddle. It’ll be lumpy cross-chop, but if you're desperate for a wave and you're a solid intermediate who can handle a bit of a mess, Monday the 27th afternoon might be your best bet. Tuesday the 28th sees the swell hold around 8 ft with similar short-period energy, but the wind picks back up to a moderate breeze, making it less appealing. For most, that 8 ft at a reef with onshore tendencies is only for the brave.

After that, from the 29th of July right through to the 3rd of August, it's back to the same story. Fresh onshore winds and lumpy conditions, with swell sizes fluctuating from 4 ft all the way up to 8 ft. The energy readings get big – we're talking four-digit numbers, hitting 1555 on August 3rd – but it's all directed by that nasty cross-onshore wind. And with the swell coming from the SSE and SE, it's not matching the optimum S direction for the reef at all. Some periods get really long, like an 18-second groundswell on the 30th, which will be a super clean-looking set of lines out the back, but with that wind, it'll just be a wall of whitewater on the reef. Not for paddling. Honestly, on those bigger, stronger wind days, this setup looks more interesting for the kite surfers than anyone with a paddle.

So, to sum it up: you're looking at a solid 10-day run of poor to marginal conditions. The only tiny window is Monday the 27th and maybe Tuesday the 28th, and even then, it's a gamble. Keep an eye on the charts, because it can't stay this ugly forever, but for now, I'd find something else to do.

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.
