The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you—this stretch is looking pretty quiet when it comes to decent surf. We’ve got Anse de Rémire (L'apcat) as the only spot on the cards, and it’s a tough one to get excited about right now. The water’s sitting at 84°F with a slight anomaly of 0.9°F, so pretty average for the time of year. The whole 16-day window is plagued by persistent cross-onshore winds, mostly from the east and southeast, keeping things choppy and messy.
We kick off Tuesday 4th August with tiny 1ft NE swell at 7 seconds, combined energy at just 25 – weak stuff. That carries on through Wednesday and Thursday with more of the same: 1.0ft to 2ft, short periods, and those cross-onshore winds. Friday and the weekend don’t improve much either, with swell barely tickling 2ft and energy rarely breaking 50. The wind stays a constant cross-onshore, so forget about clean faces.
There’s a small bump around Saturday 15th August morning where the swell picks up to 3ft from the NE with a 9-second period, and energy hits 114 – moderate, but still poor surf conditions with cross-onshore breeze. The best of the whole run might be Monday 17th August morning, when we see 3ft from the ENE at 8 seconds, energy jumping to 297 – moderate energy. But that’s paired with 25 mph ESE winds, making it a lumpy, cross-onshore mess. Frankly, it’s more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
After that, Tuesday 18th and Wednesday 19th drop back to 2ft–3ft with choppy conditions. The whole period is a blank run of poor surf, and in this area, that’s not unusual. Nothing here for the quiver. Stay tuned, conditions can change, but right now, I’d find something else to do.
Rusty.
