The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let me tell ya, it’s a tough stretch ahead for the waves around here. Looking at Anse de Rémire (L'apcat), the whole 16-day window is a write-off – there’s no decent surf to get excited about. The wind is stubbornly cross-onshore or cross, day after day, keeping everything choppy and messy. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1ft to 2ft, with weak energy rarely breaking triple digits, so it’s flat and bumpy. The occasional spike in energy, like on the afternoon of Sunday the 30th of August when the combined energy hits 684, still only pushes the swell to 4ft from the ENE – but the wind’s still cross-onshore at 15 mph, so it’s just more chop. The period is short mostly, never over 8 seconds until late August, when a 12-second pulse on Friday the 28th afternoon and a 16-second pulse on Saturday the 29th morning creep in from the NE. Those longer periods suggest groundswell, but with constant onshore wind, it’s not doing anyone any favours – you’d wanna be out on a point break or reef for that, not this exposed beach setup. Anse de Rémire is always crowded when it’s good, but let’s be honest, that’s not happening here. Water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual. The whole run is a blank one – there’s just no good options. If you’re into kiting, that cross-onshore wind might look a bit more interesting than trying to paddle out in this slop. Forecasts change, but for now, it’s a long wait. Hang in there.
