The Lowdown
Alright team, Rusty here. Let’s cut to it – the outlook for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat) over the next 16 days is a rough one. We’ve got a real dry spell on our hands.
The wind is the main villain here – cross or cross-onshore nearly every single day, keeping the surface messy. The swell is mostly tiny, weak, and short-period, so even when it shows up, you’re not getting much. Water temp is about 84°F with a normal anomaly of 0.8°F, so that’s average for the season – but you won’t be thinking about that with no surf.
Tuesday 25th August starts with a tiny 2ft NE swell (55 combined energy), and with 10 km/h cross-on winds, it’s not worth a second look. Wednesday 26th is more of the same, with a bit more wind but still sorry conditions. Thursday 27th and Friday 28th carry on the same theme – small, choppy, no good. Even when we get a pulse of NNE groundswell on Friday morning (12-second period, 210 energy), it’s still waist-high and cross-on.
The only bump of energy comes on Sunday 30th August afternoon, with a 4ft NE swell and a 10-second period, combined energy hitting 516 – the biggest number of the whole forecast. But again, it’s cross-on wind, making it choppy. Not a day to get excited about.
From Monday 31st August right through to Wednesday 9th September, it’s the same story. Swells stay under 3ft, periods are short (4-8 seconds), and the wind stays messy. Combined energy mostly sits in the weak range (35-96), with only a few small bumps near 111-193. None of it is clean.
There are no standouts here. Nothing is worth circling on the calendar. The break faces NE, which is where the swell is coming from, but the wind never cooperates. Honestly, if you’re looking for something to do, this setup looks way more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. We’ve got a blank run covering the whole 16 days with no real recommendation.
Forecasts can always shift, but right now, it’s a hard pass.
Rusty.
