The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
To be honest, mate, it’s a tough stretch. This whole 16-day window is looking like a write-off for decent waves. The surf is just too weak and chopped up to get excited about. We’ve got a long gap of nothing really worth paddling out for, from now all the way through to mid-August. The first hint of any real energy doesn’t show up until Wednesday the 12th of August, and even then it’s not great.
The only spot we’ve got to look at is Anse de Rémière (L'apcat). It’s an exposed spot, so it catches whatever is out there, but the wind is just relentless. It’s coming from the east and southeast, blowing cross or cross-onshore, which is chopping everything up. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1 ft to 2 ft from the northeast, with periods under 8 seconds – that’s just windswell, no push or shape to it. The combined energy is practically nothing, often in the 20s and 30s (weak energy), so there’s no power. The water temp is sitting at 83°, which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won’t be cold while you’re sitting there staring at flat water.
It’s rated as an intermediate break, but with these conditions, it’s honestly not worth the paddle for anyone. The crowds are listed as ‘always’, so even if the surf was half-decent, you’d have to fight for a wave. Just keep the board in the car for now.
So, the bottom line: there’s nothing to recommend. The whole forecast is a dud. It’s just one of those blank runs for the area. Forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a no-go.
