The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). Gotta be straight with you – it’s a long, quiet stretch ahead. The swell window’s just not lining up with the wind, and the rig’s gonna be mostly messy.
Right off the bat, don’t expect much. The whole 16-day window is grim. There’s not a single decent session on the cards. The swell’s tiny and the wind’s almost always on it, making everything choppy. This spot is exposed to the northeast, which is where the swell wants to come from, but the wind is mostly coming from the east and southeast, so it’s always cross or cross-on. That’s rough. The best of the worst might be Tuesday morning, August 25th, with a tiny 2 ft NE swell (38 combined energy – weak) and a light cross-offshore breeze from the SSE. The water’s gonna be average temp for this time of year, so nothing wild there.
But honestly, it’s all “poor surf conditions” according to the numbers. The swell period is mostly short (8 seconds or less) so the waves will be weak and crumbly. There’s a bit more energy showing up on Sunday the 30th with a 4 ft NE swell (743 combined energy – moderate), but it’s still cross-on with 12 mph winds. That’s just a choppy, blown-out mess. And Saturday the 5th of September has a 3 ft ENE swell but it’s a weak period of 7 seconds and the same onshore wind. Rubbish.
Because it’s exposed and onshore winds are the story, a beach-and-reef setup like this starts looking more like kitesurfing conditions than proper paddle surfing. If you’re really keen, you might get a tiny, clean window early on the 25th, but don’t hold your breath. After that, the forecast gets properly bleak. The second week is just more of the same – small, weak, and choppy with no standout days.
Rusty.
