The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what we've got for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I'm looking at the whole 16-day window and it's a bit of a flat spell for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). The wind is pretty much stuck in the east and it's blowing cross-onshore all day, every day, which just kills any chance of clean waves. The swell is tiny, mostly under 3ft, and from the northeast, which isn't doing us any favours. We're looking at combined swell energy mostly in the weak range (under 100), with a few brief moments of moderate energy in the low 100s, but even then the wind messes it up. Every single row in the data says "poor surf conditions," so there's no sugar-coating it. There's a big gap of no surf for the entire forecast period.
Right from Tuesday afternoon, September 1st, we've got a 2ft northeast swell at 8 seconds, with an east wind at 12 mph making it choppy. Water temp is 83°F, which is about average for the time of year. That pattern just repeats. The swell bumps up a bit around the 9th and 10th of September, hitting 3ft to 4ft from the northeast, and the combined energy climbs into the moderate range (163 to 361), but it's still cross-onshore wind. You might see a few lumpy lines, but nothing worth paddling out for.
Into the second week, it's more of the same. We get a bit of swell on the 15th with 3ft at 9 seconds and moderate energy, but again, that easterly wind is on it. There's no standout session, no glassy morning, no offshore wind. This is a full-on blank run. For this area, when the trade winds lock in like this, it can be a normal thing, but don't lose hope – forecasts can change. As it stands, there's no surf worth recommending. The setup with the constant cross-onshore wind and weak swell is honestly more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now.
Rusty.
