The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a good hard look at what’s coming up for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat).
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day stretch is a tough one. The whole period is dominated by cross-onshore wind, and the wave heights are tiny, mostly below 3 ft. We’ve got a long, flat-feeling run here with very little to get excited about. In fact, from Friday 28 August right through to Saturday 12 September, there’s not a single day I’d confidently paddle out for. That’s a solid 16-day gap of poor-to-no surf. For this area, a blank run like this is pretty normal when the trade winds lock in from the east-southeast.
The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no wetsuit drama, just a whole lot of small, choppy, wind-affected waves.
The only flicker of energy comes on Saturday morning 5 September, when the combined swell energy kicks up to 256 (moderate wave energy), with a swell around 4 ft from the ENE, period of 8 seconds. But the wind is a moderate cross-onshore from the ESE at 15 mph, making it choppy. For an exposed spot like this, that’s not going to produce anything clean. The swell is just not organized enough, and the onshore chop will wreck any chance of a decent wall.
Tuesday 10 September afternoon also shows some energy at 198 (moderate), with 3 ft from the ENE and an 8-second period, but again, cross-onshore wind from the east at 12 mph. It’s the same story – messy and lumpy.
Honestly, if you’re a paddle surfer, this forecast is a washout. With the persistent cross-shore and onshore wind, and no clean window of offshore or glassy conditions, the setup here is actually more interesting for kite surfing on the days with moderate breeze and that chest-high chop. For pure surfing, there’s nothing to recommend. The optimum swell direction for this break is from the NE, and while we do get some NE pulses, the wind just ruins it every time.
So, I’d say save the petrol and wait for a better window. The forecasts can change, but right now, this is about as poor as it gets for Anse de Rémire.
Stay salty,
Rusty
