The Lowdown
Rusty here. I've been staring at the charts for Anse de Rémiire (L'apcat) and, well, I've got to be straight with you – it's a grim run. There's a massive 16-day gap ahead with absolutely no surf worth paddling out for. Every single session in the window is marked as "poor surf conditions," and that's the truth of it.
The water is sitting at 84°F right now, which is about average for the time of year, so at least you won't freeze. But that's the only good news.
From Tuesday the 28th of July right through to Wednesday the 12th of August, it's a desert. The swell is tiny, mostly 1.0 ft to 4 ft, and it's all coming from the NE, which is the optimum direction for this spot. But the problem is the wind. It's cross-on or cross-shore almost the entire time, from the ESE or E, at 6 to 12 mph. That's a constant chop, never cleaning up. The swell periods are short, between 4 and 9 seconds, so there's no push or shape to the waves. The combined energy is weak, mostly under 100, with a brief spike to 311 on the morning of Friday the 31st of July, but even that comes with a moderate cross-onshore wind, so it's just messy.
There's no standout. Not a single day where the wind drops and the swell aligns. It's all cross-onshore chop and weak, short-period slop. Honestly, for a spot that's always crowded, you won't have to worry about battling for a wave because there won't be any worth taking. This is a solid blank run. For this area, when the trade winds lock in like this, long flat spells are just part of the deal. Forecasts can change, but right now, I wouldn't even bother strapping the board on the roof.
Rusty.
