Table - best surf conditions forecast for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat) over the next 16 days.
Hey folks, Rusty here. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this forecast is a total bummer. For Anse de Rémire (L'apcat), we've got a long, empty run ahead. The first record is for July 11th, and from that day straight through to July 26th, it's all "poor surf conditions" with no decent waves on the board. That’s a 16-day stretch of nothing worthwhile.
The swell never gets going. We're looking at waves mostly between 2ft and 4ft, but it’s all short-period windswell from the NE, with periods barely hitting 8 seconds. The wind is the real killer – a constant cross or cross-onshore breeze from the east or southeast, just tearing up the surface and keeping it choppy. The wave energy is almost always in the weak range (under 100), with a couple of days barely scraping the low end of moderate (100-162). It’s just weak and messy.
The water temp is a pleasant 84°F, which is about normal for the season, so the swimming is fine. But for surfing? There’s nothing to get excited about. The best of a bad lot might be the morning of July 21st, when the energy bumps up to 162, but that’s still attached to a tiny 3ft swell and the same old cross-onshore breeze. With these conditions – small, weak swell and constant onshore wind at a beach break – this setup is honestly more suited for kite surfing than paddle surfing. We'll see if the forecasts change, but for now, it’s a long wait.
Rusty.
