The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here again. Let’s break down the same stretch of time in feet and miles per hour.
We’re looking at a long, dry spell before anything worth paddling for shows up. The first 12 days or so are a write-off for decent surf. From Tuesday the 4th right through to Saturday the 15th, the wind is up – mostly fresh cross-shore or cross-onshore – and the waves are messy and lumpy. The swell runs from around 5ft to 10ft, but the quality is just not there. The combined wave energy is moderate to strong, hitting 1542 on the 6th, but it’s all blown out rubbish.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on the 16th of August, Sunday. The wind drops to a gentle breeze, and we see a 6ft SSE swell with a 9-second period. The combined energy is still solid at 1242, but the surf is choppy and the tide timing is tricky. The afternoon brings a shift to a SSW onshore breeze, which doesn’t help.
The true standout is on the 17th of August, Monday afternoon. The wind goes glassy, dead calm. The swell is a clean 6ft from the SE, with a 9-second period. The water is a touch warmer than normal at 28°. This is your window. *Anse Gaulette* is a fairly consistent reef break, so the shape should be good with that clean, glassy surface. It’s a popular spot, so expect a few others in the water. The 18th is a step back, with the wind coming up again and the energy dropping off.
Rusty out.

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.
