The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Looking at the next couple of weeks for our region, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch. The wind is locked in from the east, blowing cross-onshore and chopping everything up, and the swell just isn’t cooperating. The first surf recommendation doesn’t kick off until Sunday the 6th of September, but it’s a real struggle from the get-go.
We’ve got Anse de Rémire (L'apcat) as our only option on the table, and it’s a tough sell. This spot is exposed to the northeast, and while we do get some NE windswell, the conditions are persistently poor. Starting Sunday morning the 6th, there’s only 2 ft of NE swell with a short 8-second period, and the water temp is a warm 84°, about average for this time of year. But the cross-onshore wind from the east at 9 mph just kills it, leaving us with poor surf. That same story repeats all through the first week and into the second – small waves, mostly under 3 ft, choppy and messy. The combined swell energy is weak, mostly under 100 (60 on Sunday morning the 6th), so there’s just no punch.
There’s a glimmer of something on Wednesday the 9th of September when we see a 2 ft NNE swell with a 12-second period. That’s a touch more energy (173) and a longer period, but the wind is still cross-on from the east at 12 mph. It’s still marked as poor surf. The same kind of thing pops up again on Monday the 21st of September, with a 2 ft NE swell at 12 seconds (177) and a 3 ft NE swell at 11 seconds (283) in the afternoon. Again, that cross-onshore wind messes it up. With the break being a beach or beach-and-reef setup, and the swell being small with onshore wind, honestly, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
There are no standout days here, no real windows of opportunity. It’s just a long, drawn-out period of poor conditions. The crowds are listed as ‘always’ present, but honestly, with this quality, I’m not sure why. We’ll have to wait for the forecast to change, because right now, it’s a flat, choppy mess.
