Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's chew the fat about what's on the menu for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat) over the next few weeks.
I'll level with you: the outlook is a bit of a dry spell. From Sunday the 5th of July all the way through Monday the 20th of July, the stars just aren't aligning for a quality surf. We're looking at a small NE swell, with wave heights running from about 2ft to 4ft. The energy in the water is weak to moderate, with those combined energy numbers mostly sitting between 60 and 200. The real problem is the wind. For the vast majority of that time, we've got cross-shore and cross-onshore winds blowing at 6 to 12 mph. That's going to put a nasty chop on the surface and spoil any chance of clean lines. The water temp is a balmy 84°F, which is pretty standard for this time of year, so you'll be fine in boardies.
Honestly, the forecast is calling it "poor surf conditions" right the way through. The wave period is a short 8 seconds or less, so it's just weak, messy, wind-affected slop. This isn't really a paddle surfer's paradise right now; with that persistent onshore wind, the setup looks far more interesting for kite surfing. There is one tiny glimmer: on the morning of Tuesday the 7th of July, we get a light offshore wind from the NE at just 3 mph, but the swell is still a paltry 2ft with that same short period. Not enough to get the heart racing.
Looking way ahead to the weekends of the 18th and 19th of July, there are a couple of mornings where the wind swings light cross-offshore from the SSE at 6 mph, and the models are calling it "clean." That's a good sign for a smooth surface, but the swell is still tiny at 2ft to 2ft and the energy is weak (35 to 65). It’s a hopeful whisper, but we're talking over two weeks away, so take that with a grain of salt. Forecasts can and do change for the better around here.
Bottom line: if you're desperate, keep an eye on those early morning windows around the 18th and 19th of July for the cleanest water. Otherwise, it's a good time to tune up your gear or go for a kite session.
Rusty.
