The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Anse de Rémiure (L'apcat) over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, it’s a pretty flat spell for this exposed NE-facing spot. We’ve got a solid 16-day window here, but the first week and a half is looking like a write-off for any kind of decent paddle session. From Wednesday 5th August right through to the middle of the following week, the swell is tiny – mostly around 1ft to 2ft – with almost no energy behind it. The combined energy values are mostly in the 20s and 30s (weak energy), and the wind is persistently cross-on from the ESE or E, keeping the surface choppy and messy. It’s just not happening.
The first real glimmer of hope shows up on Saturday 15th August. The morning sees a touch more size, with the swell building to 2ft from the NE, and the period stretching out to a nice 9 seconds. The combined energy bumps up to 106 (moderate wave energy), which is a noticeable step up. The wind is still a steady cross-on from the E at 9 mph, but it’s a gentle breeze, so the chop won’t be as hectic. It’s still not perfect, but it’s the best we’ve seen in a while. For a spot that’s often crowded, with the surf being inconsistent, this might be a good time to find a bit of space.
Sunday 16th August holds similar promise, with the swell staying at 2ft from the NE in the morning, and the combined energy at 108 (moderate). The wind is a bit stronger in the afternoon, but the morning session could be worth a look.
Honestly, the standout of the entire forecast is the late morning of Saturday 15th August. It’s not a classic, but compared to the flat, choppy junk we’ve been dealing with, a 2ft NE swell with a bit of energy and gentle cross-on wind is the best on offer. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no wetsuit worries.
If you’re a beginner, the swell never gets over 5ft, so it’s all manageable, but the quality just isn’t there for most of the run. The set-up is a beach, and with the persistent cross-on wind, it might actually look more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on most days.
So, in short: a long, flat gap until the 15th, then a couple of mornings with small but rideable waves. The forecasts can change, and it tends not to stay this poor for long, but for now, that Saturday is your best bet.
Rusty.
