The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down what's in the water for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it's a tough start. From the 29th of August through to the 7th of September, it's a total loss. The wind is just relentless out of the SE and SSE, blowing hard and making a mess of everything. The swell is actually pumping – we're seeing some solid 3.0m to 8ft sets – but with that fresh cross-onshore wind, it's a choppy, lumpy disaster. The combined wave energy is huge, topping out over 2000, but it's all for nothing. For a reef like Anse Gaulette, this is a washout. It's more of a kiteboarding situation than a paddle session.

Now, the good news. The 8th of September (Tuesday) is the real deal. The wind switches to a light easterly, cross-off, and the ocean cleans right up. The morning shows a 3ft south swell, but with a 18-second period – that's proper groundswell, tons of energy. The combined energy is 1075, and the conditions are clean and perfect for experienced surfers. The afternoon is similar with a 4ft south swell and 16-second period. This is the one to circle. The water temp is about normal for this time of year, nothing unusual.

The 9th of September (Wednesday) is a bit smaller. Swell drops to 3ft from the south, with a 13-14 second period. The wind is light and cross, so it's rideable but only marginal. Maybe a fun session for a log, but not a standout.

The 10th of September (Thursday) brings a bit more size – 5ft south swell, 18-second period – but the wind is light cross-onshore, just enough to put a little texture on the surface. It's still a marginal call, but much cleaner than the first week. The energy is strong at 2066.

The 11th of September (Friday) has a 7ft swell from the SE, but the period drops to 9 seconds, making it softer and less powerful. Light cross-onshore wind again. It's a maybe, but not the best.

The 12th of September (Saturday) morning looks okay with a 7ft SE swell and 9-second period, but the wind is cross and building, and by the afternoon it's a mess with a 4ft south swell at 20 seconds but fresh cross-onshore wind. The energy in that afternoon pulse is massive at 2233, but it's completely unsurfable.

The 13th of September (Sunday) is back to the same old story: fresh cross-onshore, lumpy, and poor.

So, if you're looking for the one true standout, it's Tuesday the 8th of September. That's your window. The rest of the run is a long, frustrating wait.

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.
