The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s talk about Anse de Rémire (L'apcat) in feet and miles per hour. The whole 16-day stretch from now to the end of August is a total dud. There’s a 16-day period with no good surf. The wind is nearly always cross-on or cross-shore, and the sea state is just "poor surf conditions" all the way through.
The water is 84°F on the 14th, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a wetsuit, but that’s the only good news.
Swells are tiny, mostly from the NE or E, with heights rarely hitting 3 ft. The periods are short, and the combined energy is weak, often in the double digits (like 51 on the 14th morning, or 64 on the 14th afternoon). Even when the energy climbs into the low hundreds (363 on the 15th afternoon, 257 on the 18th afternoon), it’s still a messy, choppy, cross-onshore mess. The wind is a steady 12 to 16 mph from the E or ESE, never giving us that clean offshore glass we need.
The best you could argue is maybe the 18th of August, Tuesday afternoon, where we see a 3 ft swell from the ENE with an 8-second period and combined energy hitting 257. But it’s still cross-on and the conditions are poor. It’s not a call I’d make. For a beginner, anything over 5 ft is too much, but that’s not the problem here – the problem is the lack of quality. Even the 27th of August, Thursday afternoon, shows a 3 ft swell with 248 energy, but again, it’s cross-on and the forecast is "poor surf conditions."
There is simply no standout. No session worth chasing. The setup is so consistently poor that it’s more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, given the steady cross-onshore breeze. Sometimes you get a blank run, and this is one of them. Forecasts can change, but right now, leave the boards at home.
Rusty.
