The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here, checkin' in from the coast. Look, I've got to be straight with you – the outlook for the next 16 days at Anse de Rémire (L'apcat) is a tough one. There's a real flat spell on the cards, and I'm not seeing any standout windows where you'd want to paddle out. The whole 16-day window is a bit of a write-off, with no proper surfable conditions on offer.
Starting Sunday, July 19th, the swell is tiny, barely 2ft from the NE with a short period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak, sitting at just 51 (weak energy). The wind is a cross-shore breeze, which is not the worst, but the surf quality is poor. This pattern holds through the week. Monday the 20th stays similar, 2ft to 2ft NE swell, still short period, and the wind swings cross-onshore, making it choppy. Energy bumps up a bit to 83 (weak energy) Monday arvo, but it's still no good.
Tuesday the 21st is a write-off with a risk of thunderstorms and moderate cross-onshore winds. The swell drops to 2ft. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday... it's all the same story. Small, weak swell, never getting above 3ft, and the wind is nearly always cross-onshore. The water temp is about average for this time of year, no major anomaly to report.
We get a slight lift on Saturday, July 25th, with the swell pushing up to 4ft in the morning. The combined energy hits 105 (moderate wave energy), which is the first time we see a three-digit number! But it's a NE swell with a short 7-second period, and the wind is a moderate cross-onshore breeze. It's still "poor surf conditions". The afternoon is a bit cleaner with a gentler breeze, but the swell drops back to 3ft. The spot is an exposed beach setup, and with the wind on it, it's pretty choppy.
The following week, through to the end of July and into August, offers no real hope. The swell stays in the 2ft to 3ft range, with the period slowly stretching out to 10 seconds by August 1st. The combined energy does spike to 246 (moderate wave energy) on Friday, July 31st, but the swell is still small and the wind is cross-onshore. The crowd situation is worth mentioning: this spot is "always" crowded, so even if the waves were good, you'd be fighting for a peak. But they aren't good.
Even the best-looking day, Saturday, August 1st, with a 3ft NE swell and a 10-second period, and energy at 185 (moderate wave energy), is let down by the cross-onshore wind. It's a consistent spot, but the conditions just aren't coming together. The truth is, for the next 16 days, there's no surf worth getting wet for. The breaks are exposed and the wind is almost always messy. This looks more like a kiteboarding window than a surfing one. Keep your board in the bag, and let's hope the forecasts change. Stay tuned.
Rusty.
