The Lowdown
Alright, let’s call it like it is. For the next 16 days at Anse de Rémire (L'apcat), there’s nothing to get excited about. Every single day is marked as “poor surf conditions,” with a zero out of ten. It’s a total washout.
The water temp is 84°F – that’s about 1°F warmer than average for this time of year, so nothing too crazy, just a bit above normal.
The first recommendation? There isn’t one. We start Saturday, September 5th, with a tiny 2ft swell from the NE, period at 8 seconds, and a light cross-shore breeze at 6 mph. The combined energy is a weak 36. It’s small, it’s messy, and it’s not going to turn around. Sunday’s even smaller – 1ft. As we get into Monday and Tuesday, the swell picks up to 3ft, but the wind stays cross-on at 9 to 12 mph, and the period drops to 7 seconds. The energy climbs into the moderate range – 124 on Monday morning – but it’s still choppy and rough.
The swell direction is mostly NE, and the spot likes NE, so the angle is fine. But the wind is never offshore. It’s always cross or cross-on, and that’s killing the surface. The waves are there, but they’re bumpy and not worth the hassle.
There’s a bit of a tease on Wednesday, September 9th, when the period jumps to 12 seconds – that’s a real groundswell – but the swell height is only 2ft to 2ft, and the wind is still cross-on at 12 mph. The energy hits 180 and 221, which is moderate, but without clean conditions, it’s no good. And a long period swell on a beach break can make it break straight and fast, which isn’t ideal.
The rest of the forecast is more of the same: small swell, 1ft to 3ft, periods from 5 to 9 seconds, and constant cross-on winds. The energy stays mostly in the weak to moderate range, peaking at 249 on Friday, September 11th, but again, the quality is poor.
Crowds are listed as “always” here, so even if there was a decent wave, you’d be sharing it with half the island. The difficulty is intermediate, but in these conditions, it’s just not fun.
No standouts here. The whole 16 days is a bust. The wind just won’t cooperate. It’s a tough stretch, but it doesn’t usually stay this flat and messy for long. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye on it, but for now, don’t bother getting wet.
