The Lowdown
Alright, let’s be straight with you. Looking at Anse de Rémiure (L'apcat) for the next 16 days, it’s a total bust. The entire stretch is a no-go for decent surf. From the first report on Monday, August 31st, right through to Tuesday, September 15th, it’s all the same story: poor conditions. That’s over two weeks of nothing to write home about.
The problem is that stubborn easterly wind. It’s blowing cross-onshore every single day, making the water choppy and messy. The swell is pitiful, generally between 1ft and 3ft out of the NE, which is offshore for this spot, but it’s all fighting that wind. The wave energy is weak, with the highest readings like 172 (Monday morning) and 152 (Wednesday afternoon) still not enough to overcome the chop. The period is short, 8 seconds or less, so it’s just windswell—no real power.
There’s a faint glimmer on Thursday, September 10th, with a little more energy (234 in the morning), but it’s still cross-onshore and choppy. A real letdown. Even when the swell hits 3ft on the 9th and 10th, the wind ruins it.
Water temp is pretty normal for this time of year, nothing unusual. But honestly, with the constant onshore breeze and no decent swell, this is looking more like a kiteboarding spot than a place to paddle out. The beach break is just going to be blown out.
For a spot that usually gets waves, this is a rough spell. But it happens. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye out, but for now, there’s nothing worth paddling for.
