The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. I’ve looked at the charts for the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it’s a tough stretch for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). The numbers just aren’t there for us paddle surfers.
We’re looking at a long, quiet run with nothing worth getting wet for. The swell is tiny, mostly coming from the NE and ENE, but the wind is a killer. It’s stuck in a cross-onshore pattern from the east and southeast, blowing at 9 to 16 mph. That’s blowing the top off any little bump we get, keeping it choppy and messy. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is about normal for this time of year, so that’s one thing that’s nice, but it doesn’t help the waves.
The first few days are flat. Saturday the 5th and Sunday the 6th, we’re looking at tiny 1 ft to 2 ft swell with a short period of 8 seconds and weak energy (89). It’s a no-go. Monday the 7th afternoon sees a little lift to 3 ft and the energy nudges up to 116 (moderate), but with that 7-second period and the cross-on wind, it’s just junk.
Into the second week, from Tuesday the 8th through to the 20th of September, the pattern holds. The swell never really gets above 4 ft, and the period stays short, mostly between 6 and 9 seconds. The combined energy climbs into the low-to-mid 200s on Thursday the 10th afternoon (263) and Sunday the 13th morning (180), but again, the wind stays cross-onshore, making it choppy and poor. There’s no clean window. The setup here is a beach, so with that persistent wind and small, weak swell, this is looking way more interesting for a kite session than a traditional surf.
Honestly, there isn’t a single standout session in this whole 16-day window. The forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a blank run. Keep the board in the car, but don’t get your hopes up.
Rusty.
