The Lowdown
Right then, let's have a look at what's on the table for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). I've gotta be straight with you – it's a tough one. The entire 16-day window is one long, dry spell. There isn't a single moment I'd tell you to paddle out, not one session worth getting wet for. We're looking at a full run from the 28th of August all the way through to the 12th of September with nothing but poor surf conditions.
The swell is mostly small, hanging around the 1ft to 4ft range, but the big problem is the wind. It's locked in from the east and southeast, blowing right across the face of the waves at 9 to 16 mph, creating a chop that'll just spoil any chance of a clean ride. The wave energy is almost always low, typically under 100, which means there's just no push. Even the biggest energy reading of 313 on the 5th of September comes with that same messy cross-onshore wind, so it's not going to be any fun. For the few days with a 3ft swell, like the 1st and 8th of September, the period is a short 8 seconds, so it's just a weak, wind-blown mess.
This is a spot that's exposed to the swell, but when the wind is constantly cross-on like this, it's a write-off. With so many days of poor surf, strong side-wind and small, weak waves, this setup honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The water is a warm 84° which is pretty normal for this time of year, but that's the only positive. Put the boards away and wait for the next forecast.
