The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat).
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a grim stretch ahead. There’s no real surf to get excited about for the whole 16 days, which is a real bummer. The first record kicks off on Wednesday, July 15th, but don’t let that fool you. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly cross-onshore, and the water is sitting at a warm 83°, which is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there. The combined swell energy is weak at 158. The waves are just poor – small, choppy, and not worth paddling out for.
The pattern doesn’t improve. From Thursday, July 16th all the way through to Tuesday, July 29th, it’s a wasteland. Every day brings the same story: small swell under 3 ft, short period of 6 to 8 seconds, mostly cross-onshore winds, and the combined energy rarely gets above 100. The best you’ll see is Saturday, July 25th afternoon with a 4 ft swell from the NE and energy hitting 312 – still labelled as poor surf conditions, and with a cross-onshore breeze, it’s just messy. Not worth the drive.
Then, on Wednesday, July 29th, we get a tiny glimmer. The morning shows a 4 ft swell from the NE, period of 7 seconds, but the wind turns cross-offshore from the SSE at 9 mph, and the conditions clean up. The combined energy is 179 – moderate. The wave comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” and the score is a 1. This is the only session in the whole 16-day window that’s even worth mentioning. The swell is still short period and not powerful, but it’ll be the cleanest you’ll see. If you’re desperate, that’s your window.
But honestly, for most of this period, the setup is so poor with small, weak swell and onshore winds that it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
After that, it’s back to the same old story. Thursday, July 30th is another write-off. So, there are no standout days here. The best on offer is that Wednesday, July 29th morning, but don’t expect much.
Rusty.
