The Lowdown
Alright folks, it’s Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s doing for the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you from the get-go: this stretch is looking pretty flat. We’ve got a long run of days where the swell just isn’t cooperating, and the one spot we’ve got to watch, Anse de Réemire (L'apcat), is a tough case.
The first surf worth mentioning—and I’m using that word loosely—kicks off on Tuesday, the 14th of July. But it’s not a pretty picture. We’ve got a tiny little NE swell around 2ft at a short period of 8 seconds, combined with a weak energy reading of just 88. The wind is cross-on from the east at 9 mph, which is leaving things messy and choppy. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing to write home about.
This same low-energy pattern just drags on right through the week. The swell never gets above 3ft, the period stays short at 7-8 seconds, and the wind is constantly cross-on, keeping the surface chopped up. The combined energy bumps up to 133 on the 15th, but it is still a poor showing. Honestly, it’s a grim run for paddle surfing; if you’re into kite surfing, the constant cross-on breeze and the small, weak waves might actually be more interesting than trying to wrestle a surfboard.
We do see a little bump in the swell height on Thursday, the 23rd of July, with NE swell reaching 4ft, and a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 166, but again, the wind is still cross-on from the east at 9 mph, meaning the surface is still a bit of a mess. The conditions are still tagged as “poor.”
The most notable event comes on Friday, the 24th of July. The swell picks up to 4ft from the NE, with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 316. That’s a solid moderate energy level. But the wind is still cross-on from the ENE at 9 mph, and we’ve got a risk of thunderstorms. It’s a slightly better push of swell, but it is still let down by the wind. After that, the swell fades back down to under 3ft for the rest of the forecast period.
So, what’s the call? There isn’t a single standout session in the whole 16-day window. The surf is consistently poor, the wind is always cross-on, and the swell is small. For this area, a blank run like this is more normal than exciting. It’s a tough one to swallow, but the forecasts can change, eh? Keep your eyes peeled.
Rusty.
