The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. We’ve got a tricky 16-day window ahead for Anse Gaulette, and honestly, it’s a bit of a tough pill to swallow. The pattern is locked in, but it’s not a friendly one. The wind is our main problem – it’s howling from the southeast and south-southeast pretty much non-stop, and it’s coming straight across the break, making everything a lumpy, choppy mess.

We start off on Saturday, 1st August, with a bit of a stormy feel. The swell is running at 4ft from the southeast, period around 9 seconds (moderate energy, 387). But with that 16 mph cross-onshore wind, it’s paddling into a washing machine. The water is a warm 81°, feeling a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s the only upside. The afternoon sees the swell bump up to 5ft, but the wind sticks, and it’s just poor. Sunday, 2nd August, is much the same story – 4ft and 19 mph winds in the morning. In the afternoon, the wind backs off a bit to 9 mph, and we get a long-period groundswell puffing in from the south at 17 seconds (524 energy), but it’s still cross-on, so it’s choppy and messy. That long period is a bit of a tease – it’d be a dream at a point break, but here it’s just making things lumpy.

The whole first week is a write-off. Monday and Tuesday see the swell energy climb into the moderate to strong range, but the wind is relentless. By Wednesday, 6th August, the swell is a solid 8ft from the southeast, with a 10-second period, and the energy is pumping (1320). That’s proper heavy water, but it’s accompanied by 22 mph cross-onshore winds and rain showers. That’s not surf for anyone but a lunatic, and even then, it’s ugly. The setup is more interesting for kite surfers than paddle surfers during this stretch.

We hit a real low point around the 11th and 12th of August, with the swell still over 7ft and strong winds. It’s only for the experts, and even they’d struggle. The 14th and 15th show a slight lightening of the wind, with Friday the 15th offering a brief window: a 4ft SSE swell with gentle 9 mph cross-shore wind. The energy is weak (507), and the forecast calls it marginal. It’s the best we’ve got, which isn’t saying much. The 16th brings the wind back up, and the pattern closes out with another 7ft+ swell and 16 mph breezes.

The standout? Honestly, there isn’t one. The only day that even flirts with being worth a look is Saturday, 15th August. The conditions are just barely in the “marginal” camp, with a gentle breeze and a cross-shore direction. The swell is small (4ft, SSE, 9 seconds), but it’s the cleanest we’ll see. Even then, it’s a gamble. The rest of the 16 days? You’re better off staying home.

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.

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.
