The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for the local stretch.
Honestly, mate, it’s a grim picture for the next two weeks. We’re looking at a full 16-day run with absolutely no solid surf to get excited about. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, and even when the swell tries to push through, the conditions just trash it.
For a bit of context on the water, at Anse de Rémiure (L'apcat) it's sitting at 84°, which is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there.
We've got a tiny pulse coming through on the morning of Saturday, 29th August, with a 1.0 ft swell from the NE, but the period is a super long 18 seconds from the north-east. That kind of groundswell is tricky for the local setup, plus the wind is a moderate cross-shore chop. Combined wave energy is weak (112). Not worth paddling out.
Sunday the 30th afternoon sees the swell bump up to 4 ft from the ENE, with a period of 11 seconds, and the combined energy climbs to a moderate 621. But it's still cross-onshore and choppy. It’s not something you’d pull the wetsuit on for.
Every single entry in the forecast reads as "poor surf conditions" with a score of zero. The wind is just never in our favour. For the whole 16 days, there isn't a single standout. If you’re really keen, the best of a bad bunch is probably the Sunday afternoon wave, but don't expect much more than messy, blown-out lines. This setup would almost be more interesting for a kite surfer than someone with a paddle board.
It’s a blank run, plain and simple. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board in the car.
Rusty.
