The Lowdown
Hey, it’s Rusty. Let’s be real—this 16-day stretch for Anse de Rémire (L’apcat) is a total dud. From July 19th all the way through August 3rd, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. Just tiny, choppy waves that’ll leave you frustrated. The water’s warm at 83°F, about normal for this time of year, but that’s the only thing going for it.
The first few days, starting Sunday July 19th, we’ve got swell around 2 ft to 3 ft from the NE, which is the right direction, but the wind is cross-onshore from the ESE or E at 9 mph, keeping everything bumpy and weak. The combined energy is low—mostly under 100 (56, 76, 80)—so there’s no power. Monday July 20th morning had a brief cross-shore moment, but still tiny and choppy. The rest of July looks the same: small NE swell, cross-onshore breeze, and the occasional thunderstorm risk. The energy numbers stay under 200, with a few afternoons hitting 102 or 162, but that’s still weak and messy.
Into August, the swell drops to about 2 ft, and the period stretches to 10 seconds, but the wind is still cross-onshore. The energy numbers are even lower—54, 55, 68. No standout day, no clean glassy window. The best you might get is the light cross-onshore on the morning of July 29th, but even then the swell is only 2 ft and the combined energy is just 82. Really poor.
So, bottom line: if you’re desperate, you might find knee-high lumps, but honestly, this place is more interesting for kite surfing than paddling. The break is exposed, gets consistent tiny swell, but the wind never lines up. We’ll have to wait for a change. Forecasts can turn, but right now, leave your board at home.
Stay salty,
Rusty
