The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for Anse de Rémiire (L'apcat). I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window is a tough one. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing much to get excited about, with a consistent cross-onshore wind messing up the surface.
The water is sitting at 84°F for the first morning, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The pattern for the whole period is the same: small swell from the northeast, mostly around 1ft to 3ft, with a short period of 7 to 9 seconds. That’s weak, windswell stuff. The combined energy is weak, starting at 40 and only occasionally bumping up into the low triple digits, like on the morning of September 7th when it hits 102. The issue is the wind. It’s coming from the east to east-southeast at 9 to 16 mph, and it’s cross-on the whole time, making for choppy, bumpy waves. The wave comment is "poor surf conditions" across the board, and the scores are all zeros. There’s just no quality to be found.
You’ll see a slight bump in swell height around September 13th and 14th, with waves hitting 3ft, but the wind is still cross-on, so it’s not going to clean up. The period stays short, so the shape will be poor. The energy does get a bit stronger on the 13th afternoon at 162 and the 14th afternoon at 188, but it’s all wasted by the wind. This setup is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, to be honest.
We don’t have the optimum swell direction of NE hitting the beach cleanly, and the crowds are always a factor here. On top of that, the wind is never offshore, so there’s no window of glassy conditions. It’s a long, flat, choppy forecast. If you’re desperate for a paddle, you might find something knee-high, but it won’t be pretty.
Rusty.
