The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into what’s going on with the surf at Anse de Rémiure (L'apcat). I’ve got to be honest with you, this stretch of the next 16 days looks pretty grim. There’s not a single session that’s going to get you excited. The whole window is filled with poor surf conditions, so we’re looking at a long blank run with no real standout options.
The water temp is sitting at 82°, which is pretty much exactly where you’d expect it for this time of year – nothing unusual there.
The pattern starts off with tiny, weak swell. Monday, July 20th, kicks off with a 2ft NE windswell, period a short 7 seconds, and the combined energy is a measly 46 (weak). The wind is cross-shore, light, but it’s still a messy, ripply surface. That’s the story for the next few days: tiny 1ft to 2ft swell, periods around 7 to 8 seconds, and cross-onshore winds from the east or southeast that just chop it up. The wave energy bounces around between 24 and 61 (weak). It’s all poor surf, every single session.
We get a slight bump in size on Saturday, July 25th, with the swell hitting 3ft to 4ft from the NE, but the period is still a short 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 188 (moderate), which sounds better, but don’t be fooled. The wind is cross-onshore, moderate to gentle, and it’s still being described as poor surf. It’s still a messy, choppy mess.
The energy climbs again around Wednesday, July 29th, into Thursday, July 30th. The swell hits 3ft from the NE, period 9 seconds, and the combined energy gets up to 253 (moderate) and 263 (moderate). Still, the wind is cross-onshore, and the conditions are just poor – choppy, bumpy, and not worth your time. The swell direction is from the NE, which is not the optimum direction for this spot (NE is the optimum, so that’s a small positive, but the wind and quality kill it).
From Friday, August 1st, through to Tuesday, August 4th, it’s the same old story: 2ft to 3ft NE swell, short periods, and constant cross-onshore breeze. The combined energy is weak, between 45 and 79. It’s a complete flat spell in terms of quality.
Look, I hate to say it, but this is one of those times where the forecast is just a washout. Consistency is zero, quality is zero. You’d be better off leaving the boards in the shed and checking back in a few days. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to chase.
Rusty.
