G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – the next 16 days are a real struggle for surf around Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). The whole window is a flat, choppy, wind-affected mess. The swell is tiny, the wind is stuck cross or cross-onshore, and there’s not a single session that’s worth paddling out for. The combined swell energy barely cracks three digits a couple of times, hitting a weak 121 on Thursday morning, July 9, and nudging up to 355 on Saturday, July 11 – but that’s just a bigger number on a messy, short-period, 8-second NE windswell. The water is sitting at 84° and that’s pretty normal for the time of year, so no weird temps to blame.
Nothing here is a standout. The best you’ll get is a 4 ft NE swell on Saturday, July 11, but it’s accompanied by 12 mph cross-onshore winds and a storm risk, turning the ocean into a lumpy, choppy mess. The break is exposed and the swell direction straight out of the NE, which is the optimum direction, but the quality is cooked by the wind. It’s a beach-and-reef setup, so if you’re after a kite session, the chop might be your thing, but for a surfer? No way.
The whole first week is the same story: tiny swell, poor conditions, and a score of zero across the board. The second week from July 14 onward gets even smaller, with swell dropping to 2 ft to 2 ft, energy values falling into the 40s and 50s, and the same relentless cross-onshore breeze. Only the very end, around July 23-24, sees a tiny bump back to 4 ft NE swell with energy climbing to 182, but the period is still a short 7 seconds and the wind remains cross-onshore. It’s not enough to change the outlook.
There’s a very long gap of nothing worth chasing. The break is inconsistent and rarely good even in average conditions, so a blank run like this is pretty normal for the area. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board at home. Keep an eye on it, but don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.
