The Lowdown
Oi, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). Gotta be straight with you – this outlook is a tough one. The whole 16-day window, from now through to the 10th of September, is a real flat spell. There’s no good surf to recommend at all. Every single session is marked as poor surf conditions, with scores that don’t even register.
The swell energy is weak to moderate at best, with the combined energy of all swells directed here mostly in the two-digit range, between 36 and 142, and only a couple of brief spikes into the low hundreds. Highest we see is 627 on the morning of the 30th of August, but even then, the wind is cross-on from the ESE at 25 km/h, messing up any chance of a clean wave. Swell heights are tiny, mostly between 1ft and 4ft, with short periods around 5 to 12 seconds, coming from directions that are a mismatch for the optimum NE swell direction. The wind is almost always onshore or cross-shore, creating a choppy, bumpy mess.
There’s a gap of clean, rideable surf that stretches the entire 16 days. It’s a blank run. For a spot like this, exposed and always crowded, it’s not unusual to see such a long stretch of nothing. All you’ve got is a moderate cross-shore breeze and a cross-chop, or a gentle cross-onshore breeze and fairly choppy conditions. No standout, no highlight, just a flat, windy wait. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, but that won’t help you catch a wave.
I’d say keep the board in the bag and check back in a week. The forecasts can change, but right now, this is a total shutout.
Rusty.
