Anse de Rémire (L'apcat) Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the 16-day window.

Honestly, mate, it’s a pretty bleak run for Anse de Rémi re (L'apcat). The whole 16 days comes up with a big fat zero in the recommendation department. The wind is stuck in a cross-onshore groove from the east, and it never lets up enough to give us a clean face. The swell is small and weak, and the conditions are just poor from start to finish.

We kick off on Tuesday, September 1st with some clouds and a moderate breeze from the east at 12 mph, blowing cross-on. The swell is 3 ft from the ENE with a short period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is a weak 96. It’s choppy and messy. Wednesday the 2nd is more of the same, with a gentle cross-onshore breeze and swell dropping to 1 ft. The energy is down around 48. Thursday the 3rd stays poor, with 1 ft and energy at 39.

Friday the 4th has the wind picking up to 16 mph, and the swell bumps up to 3 ft from the east, but the period drops to a shocking 5 seconds. That’s just wind chop. Combined energy is 51, still weak. Saturday the 5th and Sunday the 6th are just variations on the same theme: cross-on wind, tiny swell, and poor quality.

There’s a slight pulse of energy around Monday the 7th afternoon, with the swell hitting 3 ft from the NE and the combined energy climbing to 159 (moderate). But the period is only 7 seconds and the east wind is still cross-on at 12 mph, so it’s gonna be a lumpy, uninviting mess. Tuesday the 8th morning shows 4 ft with energy of 195, but again, period is short, wind is wrong.

We see the strongest energy of the whole run on Thursday the 10th afternoon – 4 ft from the NE with a combined energy of 306 (moderate). But the period is still only 8 seconds and the wind is cross-on from the east at 12 mph. The surf report says “poor surf conditions” – and I’m not arguing.

From there it just fades back to tiny, weak swells for the second week. Friday the 11th through to Wednesday the 16th, we’re looking at 1 ft to 3 ft of cross-on junk. The wind stays moderate, the energy stays low (mostly under 100), and there’s not a single clean window.

There are no standout days here. No clean offshore windows, no solid groundswell. The setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer if you ask me. This is one of those blank runs that just happens sometimes – the forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about.

Rusty.
