The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for our local stretch of coast.
First up, we’re looking at a pretty quiet 16-day window overall. The good news is the water is sitting at a comfortable 84°F with a tiny anomaly of 0.7°F, so it’s pretty much bang on average for the time of year – no surprises there.
The only spot on the cards is Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). Unfortunately, there’s nothing to get excited about. The whole 16-day run is a real flat spell. The swell barely gets a sniff of energy, with the combined wave energy staying mostly in the low double digits and only briefly touching 341 on the morning of Friday the 31st of July. Even then, the swell height is only 4ft from the NE with a period of 9 seconds. That’s a weak, short-period windswell, and it’s coming in with a cross-on wind from the east at 12 mph, which chops it up and makes for poor conditions. The spot is exposed to swell, but the wind is never truly offshore, and the crowd situation is described as always busy, so there’s no chance of scoring a quiet one.
The pattern is consistent: small, weak pulses of NE swell, period never getting above 9 seconds, and the wind is either cross or cross-on from the east or southeast. It’s a long stretch of “poor surf conditions” across the board. No standout days, no clean windows, nothing that’d make you grab your board in a hurry. For a spot that’s exposed to the NE, the lack of any decent groundswell or clean offshore wind is a real bummer.
If you’re a kite surfer, this might look a bit more interesting with the persistent cross-shore breeze, but for us paddle surfers, it’s a flat, choppy mess. Sometimes that’s just how it goes here – a blank run like this isn’t unusual for the area. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing worth chasing.
Rusty.
