The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’ve gotta give it to you straight. We’ve combed through the next 16 days for Anse de Rémi... and the news is not good. From now through the 12th of August, every single surf window is rated as poor surf conditions, with no decent scores to hang your hat on. That’s a solid two-week stretch of nothing.
Let’s look at what’s on offer. The swell is tiny, mostly 1 ft to 4 ft from the NE, and the period is short, between 7 and 9 seconds, so there’s no real push or shape. The combined energy of all swells directed here is weak, hitting a max of 337 (moderate) on the 31st of July, but even that’s paired with a 12 mph cross-onshore wind out of the East, so it’s gonna be choppy and messy. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is about normal for this time of year, but that won’t help the waves.
The wind is the real killer here. It’s persistent cross-on or cross-shore from the ESE or E, mostly 9 mph to 12 mph, which means the surface is going to be blown out, bumpy, and frustrating. There’s no glassy morning, no offshore session, just constant chop. The break is Anse de Rémi (L'apcat) and it’s exposed to the NE, which is the direction the swell is coming from, but with the wind on it, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
If you’re a beginner, the swell is manageable, but the wind is a nightmare. For anyone else, it’s just not worth paddling out. This is one of those blank runs where the forecast is just stubbornly poor. It tends not to stay this way forever, but for now, you’re better off finding something else to do. Keep an eye on the charts, things can change.
