The Lowdown

Alright, grab a coffee and let me talk you through what’s cooking here. We’re looking at Anse Gaulette (Seychelles) for the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it’s a rough start. The water is sitting at 80°, pretty normal for this time of year, so no shock there. But the wind’s been a real pain – cross-on, onshore, lumpy, and choppy. For the first several days, the wave comment is “poor surf conditions,” and scores are flat zero. It’s going to be a waiting game.

From Wednesday the 26th of August right through the weekend, we’ve got pretty consistent swell coming in from the south and south-southeast, but the wind is just not cooperating. Morning and afternoon both have cross-on breezes between 12 and 25 mph, and the swell energy is all over the place, from moderate (530) to strong (2341) – but it’s all messy. The period is mostly short (6 to 8 seconds) or long (14–19 seconds), but with the onshore wind, none of it’s offering good shape. The waves themselves are small, around 3 ft to 5 ft, but with the wind chop, it’s not worth paddling out.

There’s a gap with no real recommendation until we hit Wednesday the 9th of September. That’s a solid week-plus of nothing good. You’ll be watching the forecast, hoping for a change.

Now, the standout – and I mean the only real glimmer in this whole outlook – is Wednesday the 9th of September. Morning and afternoon both score a 2 out of 10, which is the highest we see. The swell is 4 ft to 5 ft out of the south with a period of 18 seconds – that’s proper long-period groundswell, lots of energy (1586 to 2276), and it’s going to wrap into the reef nicely. The wind is light (9 mph) from the east-southeast, cross-shore, so it’s only “gentle cross-shore with slight cross-chop.” That’s the cleanest we’re going to get. This is a reef break, and with that long period, it should hold up well and offer some proper lines. The water is still warm, and the wind state is far better than the rest of the run. Keep in mind, though, this is a week and a half out, so it’s promising but not locked in yet.

The rest of the second week, into the 10th, is still marginal – the wind picks up again, the swell sticks around but the cross-shore chop returns. Nothing that’s really going to get you out of bed early.

One more thing – if you’re thinking about kite surfing, there’s a lot of wind and decent swell, especially the 29th to the 31st of August, so that setup might be more interesting for the kite crew than for paddle surfers.

Hang in there, wait for that Wednesday the 9th, and keep an eye on the updates.

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.
