Table - best surf conditions forecast for Anse Gaulette over the next 16 days.
Right, listen up. I’m not gonna sugar-coat it. The outlook for Anse Gaulette (Anse-Gaulette) over the next 16 days is a tough one. From Sunday 12 July right through to Monday 27 July, the wind is locked in from the SSE, and it’s coming in strong, smashing across the break. The result is a relentless run of poor surf conditions. The water temp is sitting at 79°F, which is about normal for the time of year, but that’s about the only thing that’s average.
The swell energy is there, no doubt. We’re seeing moderate to strong wave energy readings, from 501 up to 1126 at times, especially around the 24th and 25th of July. But it’s all for nothing. The swell is mainly from the SSE and SE, pushing in at 4ft to 8ft, with a period of 8 to 10 seconds. That’s a short-period, wind-affected mess. The breeze is 12 to 25 mph, cross-onshore, and it’s keeping the surface choppy, lumpy, and messy. There’s no clean face for a decent turn.
The best of a bad bunch? Honestly, it’s hard to pick a standout. On the morning of Sunday 12 July, the swell is 4ft, and the wind is at its lightest for the whole period at 12 mph, but it’s still cross-onshore. The wave energy is moderate (501). It’s not good, but it’s the least bad. If you’re absolutely desperate for a paddle, that’s your window. For the rest of it, this is a kite surfer’s setup, not a surfer’s. The wind is strong, the swell is crumbly, and the face is a washing machine.
There is a notable jump in swell size on the 24th and 25th of July, hitting 8ft to 8ft with strong energy (1126). But the wind is howling at 19 mph from the wrong direction, making it a powerful, messy, and dangerous lump. Only for the experts with a death wish, and even then, it’s not worth it.
So, I’m calling it. There are no good surf options in the 16-day window. The wind is the enemy, and it’s not giving up. Sometimes a blank run is just the reality for this spot. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d be finding something else to do.
