The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down the situation at Anse Gaulette. It’s a rough one. The water’s 81°, which is right where it should be for this time of year, nothing weird.

The whole 16-day stretch is a fight. Kicking off on Friday the 4th, we’ve got a solid 8ft swell from the SE, but it’s getting chewed up by a fresh SE breeze. The energy is strong, sitting at 1396, but it’s all lumpy, side-shore chop. The period is 10 seconds, which is average, but the wind just wrecks it. This setup is more for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. The quality is zero for the morning and afternoon, so it’s a bust.

Saturday the 5th and Sunday the 6th are the same story. The swell drops to 6-5ft, but the wind is still cross-on and fresh. The wave energy is moderate, around 993, but it’s all choppy and messy. It’s a grind.

The pattern doesn’t let up. Monday the 7th, Tuesday the 8th, it’s the same cross-on wind and lumpy conditions. The swell period drops to 7 seconds on Tuesday, which is short-period junk. The energy levels are 486-565, weak to moderate.

Now, there’s a little hope. Wednesday the 9th morning sees a pulse of 3ft swell from the S, and the period jumps to 16 seconds. That’s a proper long-period groundswell, full of energy. The combined energy is 858, which is moderate. But the wind is still side-shore, so it’s lumpy. It’s a marginal call, and the afternoon turns poor again.

Thursday the 10th morning has a similar story: 5ft from the S, period 15 seconds, but the wind is still cross. The energy is strong at 1443, but it’s not clean. The next few days are more of the same cross-on chop.

The only real standout is on Thursday the 17th afternoon. The swell drops right down to 3ft from the S, but the period hits 18 seconds. That’s a very long period groundswell. The energy is 873. The wind finally swings to side-shore. For a reef break like Anse Gaulette, that long period is perfect for drawing out the lines. It’s a small wave, only 3ft, but it will be the cleanest, most lined-up wave of the entire forecast. Don’t get too excited about the morning of the 18th, as the swell picks up to 4ft from the S with a 16-second period, but the wind is back to fresh cross-on, ruining it.

So, honestly, there’s no single day where you’d get a classic session. The best on offer is the Thursday afternoon the 17th for those clean, long lines on the small swell, but it’s a very narrow window. The rest of the time, it’s a battle against the wind. Don’t hold your breath.

Rusty.

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.
