The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, givin’ it to you in feet and Fahrenheit.
First off, the water temperature is about 84°F right now, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
Look, I’m gonna be straight with you – this whole 16-day stretch is a dud for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). From the start, Wednesday the 12th of August, we’re lookin’ at tiny 1ft swell from the NE, with a cross-shore wind that’s messin’ it up. The energy is weak, and the wave comment is just “poor surf conditions.” That’s the theme.
The only time we see a little more juice is on Saturday the 15th of August afternoon, with swell bumpin’ to about 4ft from the ENE, and the energy gets moderate. But the wind is still cross-on at 15 mph, and it’s choppy. Not the kind of day you paddle out for.
We get another small bump on Monday the 17th of August afternoon with 3ft from the E and a longer period, but again, cross-on wind and poor conditions.
After that, it’s a long stretch of tiny, short-period windswell and constant cross-on breezes. Every single entry is poor. The biggest swell in the whole window is only 4ft, and it’s never clean. No offshore wind, no glassy mornings.
There are no standout days. If you’re a kite surfer, that constant cross-breeze might be fun, but for us surfers, it’s a blank. The area can change, but right now, there’s nothin’ worth paddlin’ for.
Rusty.
