The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's talk about the surf outlook for this stretch of coast.
Honestly mate, it's a bit of a flat spell for Anse de Rémire (L'apcat). Looking at the whole 16-day run, we’ve got nothing but poor surf conditions from Tuesday the 18th of August all the way through. There are no standouts, no real swell windows to get excited about. It’s a long stretch of choppy, weak surf with an onshore vibe.
The first few days are tiny, with the swell hanging around 1ft to 2ft from the NE and E, but the wind is cross-on or cross-shore, blowing at 9 to 12 mph. That combo just kills any chance of a clean wave. The combined energy is weak, too, with readings like 73 and 102 – nothing with any punch.
The swell does pick up a little around the 24th of August, with a pulse reaching 4ft from the ENE on Monday afternoon (combined energy of 626 – moderate energy), but it’s overshadowed by strong cross-onshore winds at 16 mph. It’s choppy and sloppy. Then we see another bump on the 27th and 28th with 3ft to 4ft swells, but again, the wind is never clean. It’s all cross-onshore, keeping things messy.
Later in the first week of September, there’s a few days with 3ft to 3ft swells, but the wind pattern doesn’t shift. It’s the same story: cross-onshore breeze and poor conditions. The combined energy ticks up to 258 on the 31st of August, but it doesn’t matter when the wind is working against you.
Given the persistent onshore wind and the beach setup, this stretch looks much more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Don’t hold your breath on this one.
Rusty.
