The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s have an honest chat about the local surf, because straight up – there’s not much to get excited about right now. The whole 16-day window is a bit of a write-off, I’m afraid.
The only spot on the radar is Anse de Rémire (L'apcat), and it’s a tough sell. This break faces an exposed setup, and the optimum swell direction from the northeast is just not lining up with what we’re getting. The water temperature is sitting at a warm 84°°, which is about average for the time of year, so that’s one thing that’s not giving us grief.
Looking at the pattern, it’s a long, flat run. From now through the whole 16 days, the surf stays poor. There are no real standouts – nothing that even gets close to being worth a paddle out. The combined swell energy tops out at a modest 286 (moderate energy) on the afternoon of Saturday, 05 September, with a swell height of 4ft from the northeast. But the wind is a cross-onshore breeze at 16 mph, chopping it all up. That’s about as close as we get to anything, and it’s still a mess.
For the rest of the period, we’re looking at tiny swell – mostly 1ft to 3ft – with short periods under 8 seconds, cross-onshore winds, and a constant label of “poor surf conditions.” The morning of Thursday, 03 September, has a combined energy of just 36 (weak) and a wave height of 1ft. There’s nothing here for a surfer. Frankly, if you’re hoping for anything rideable, you’re out of luck.
Given the constant chop and poor quality, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The breaks just aren’t offering anything clean.
It’s a tough one. But keep an eye on the forecasts – it never stays this poor for long around here. Sometimes you just have to wait.
Rusty.
