The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cooking for this stretch of coast.
Honestly, partner, the outlook for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat) over the next sixteen days is a tough one. I’m looking at the charts and there’s just no good surf on offer. The whole period is a blank run of "poor surf conditions," and it’s pretty standard for this area when the wind and swell don’t line up.
We start off on Sunday, the 6th of September, with a tiny 1ft to 2ft of swell from the NE. The wind is a cross-on from the east at 9 mph, making for a bumpy, choppy surface. The wave energy is weak, sitting at just 44 on the Sunday, so there’s nothing to work with. This pattern sticks around through the first week. The water temperature is a warm 84°, which is about average for this time of year, but that's the only nice thing I can say.
As we head into the second week, things don’t improve. The swell stays small, mostly between 2ft and 4ft, and that cross-on east wind keeps blowing, making everything messy. There’s a slight bump in energy on Wednesday the 9th afternoon when the period jumps to 12 seconds (204 energy), but that’s a groundswell arriving from the NNE, and with the wind still cross-on, the quality is shot. The break is exposed to the swell from the NE, which is actually the optimum direction for the spot, but it doesn't matter when the wind is ruining it.
There's no standout day. The best you could hope for is maybe a slightly bigger afternoon on the 10th or the 21st, with swell around 4ft and 3ft and energy in the low-to-mid 200s, but again, the cross-onshore wind kills the vibe. It’s not big enough for experts and not clean enough for anyone else. Honestly, with this persistent cross-onshore wind and small, choppy surf, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Keep an eye on the charts, but for now, don't bother paddling out.
