The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for Anse de Rémi re (L'apcat) is a tough one. We’re looking at a 16-day window with no real surf on offer. The pattern is flat and messy, with barely a ripple to get excited about.
Right from Wednesday morning, the 5th of August, we’ve got tiny 1ft waves from the NE with a weak 9-second period. The combined energy is a measly 33 – that’s weak, barely enough to move a sea kayak. The wind is cross-shore, and the whole setup is just poor. This is the story for the next week: swell heights ranging from 1ft to 2ft, short periods, and persistent cross or cross-onshore winds. The water temp is sitting at a toasty 83°F which is about average for the time of year, not that you’ll be doing much paddling.
We skip through the first week with nothing. By Thursday the 13th, the swell ticks up to 3ft from the NE, and the combined energy hits 126 – finally some moderate energy. But the wind is still cross-onshore, and the surf is described as poor. It’s a tease. The best-looking stretch is around the 16th and 17th of August, when the swell gets to 3ft-3ft from the ENE, and the energy jumps to 178 and even 262 on the 17th afternoon. That’s moderate to strong energy, but the period is still short (8-9 seconds), and the wind is a moderate cross-onshore. It’s going to be choppy and sectiony.
Honestly, the only standout in this whole 16-day run is the Monday morning of the 17th of August. The swell is 3ft from the ENE, with a combined energy of 138, and the wind is cross-shore, which is the best we’ll see. It’s still not clean, but it’s the least bad option. For a beginner, the 3ft swell is fine, but the short period and cross-shore chop will make it a bit of a battle. For an expert, there’s nothing here.
After that, it fades again. The 19th and 20th drop back to 2ft and 1ft with weak energy. The whole window is a blank run. This area is known for these quiet spells, so it’s not a shock. The setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, honestly. The wind is consistent, but the waves just aren’t there for us.
Keep your eyes on that Monday, 17th of August, if you’re desperate. But for now, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.
