The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch coming up for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). Looking at the whole 16-day window, we’ve got a run of small, choppy, cross-onshore junk with no standout days that will get your heart racing. The water temp is sitting at 84°, with an anomaly of just 0.8°F, so pretty normal for this time of year – bathwater warm.

We kick off Wednesday the 12th of August with a tiny 1ft NE windswell, period a weak 9 seconds, and easterly winds blowing 12 mph straight across and onshore. That’s poor, choppy stuff, and the energy is a measly 45. No point paddling out.

Thursday the 13th and Friday the 14th are the same sad story – swell between 1ft and 2ft, period dropping to 8 seconds, wind still cross-onshore or just cross. The water temp data stops being reported after Wednesday, but the waves are consistently described as poor. Not a single recommendation in the whole run.

Saturday the 15th sees a bit of a bump – the morning has 2ft NE swell with energy climbing to 137 (moderate) and the afternoon hits 4ft from the ENE, energy jumping to 408 (strong). But the wind stays cross-onshore at 16 mph, and the comment is still poor surf conditions. That kind of energy with those winds just makes for messy, blown-out closeouts.

From Sunday the 16th right through to Monday the 24th of August, it’s a long, flat stretch of 1ft to 3ft, mostly 8-second windswell, and the wind never lets up – always cross-onshore from the east or ESE, 9 to 16 mph. Energy drops back under 100 most of the time. The swell direction is NE or ENE, which is not the optimum for this spot (the guidance says the optimum is from NE, so that’s fine on direction, but the quality just isn’t there).

There’s a little pulse around Tuesday the 25th and Wednesday the 26th – swell hits 4ft from the NE, period 8 to 9 seconds, energy up to 284 and 226. That’s moderate to strong energy. But again, cross-onshore winds at 12 mph and the wave comment stays “poor surf conditions.” A 4ft wave with that kind of chop is not worth the drive.

Honestly, for the entire 16 days, there is not a single window with clean, ridable surf. Every entry is marked as poor. The break is exposed to swell, but the wind never swings offshore or even light enough to clean it up. For a beach setup like this, with constant cross-onshore wind and moderate energy, it’s looking more like a kite-surfing session than a paddle-surfing one.

So, I’ve got nothing good to recommend. It’s a blank run, and for this area, that’s not unusual when the trades lock in. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, leave the boards at home for a while.
