Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for Anse de Rémi... I mean, Anse de Rémire. Gotta have a look at what's coming our way over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I’m gonna be honest with you – this is a tough run. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing special. From Friday the 3rd of July right through most of the outlook, it’s just… flat and messy. The swell is tiny, mostly hanging around 2ft to 3ft from the NE, with a short, weak period of 8 seconds. You’ll see combined swell energy struggling to get much past the low three-digit range (112 to 163), which is barely moderate. The wind is the real killer here – it’s nearly always cross or cross-onshore, keeping things chopped up and bumpy. The water temp is sitting around 84°, which is about normal for the time of year, so that’s one small comfort if you’re paddling out for a lukewarm, ordinary flop.
Now, let’s look for a silver lining. The best I can honestly point to is Saturday morning, the 4th of July. The swell picks up just a fraction to 3ft from the NE, but look – the combined energy hits 123 (moderate) and we finally get a cross-offshore wind from the SE at 6 mph. That’s a clean window. The wave comment says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," and with a score of just 1 out of 10, you know I’m not hyping it. But if you’re desperate for a slide and you’re an intermediate, that’s your window. It’s not going to be epic, but it’ll be clean. Crowds are always here at Anse de Rémire (L'apcat), so expect company.
After that? Honestly, it’s a grim run. From Saturday afternoon through to the end of the outlook on the 18th of July, we’re looking at non-stop poor surf conditions. The swell bumps up to an unimpressive 4ft on the 9th and 10th, but it’s all cross-onshore wind (E at 9 to 12 mph), turning it into a choppy mess. The swell period never gets above 8 seconds either, so no power, no shape – just bumpy, short-period slop. There’s one brief flicker on the 14th of July Tuesday morning with a 7-second period and light cross-shore wind, but the energy is weak (109) and the wave comment still says "poor surf conditions." There’s no standout here. None.
If you’re a beginner, stay home – even the 4ft days are too messy to learn on. For experts, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. Honestly, the setup looks way more interesting for the kite surfers than for us paddle surfers, with that persistent onshore wind.
Bottom line: you’ve got one clean-ish, small window on Saturday morning, the 4th of July, and then a 14-day drought of poor-to-ordinary slop. It’s one of those blank runs that happens here sometimes – not much you can do but wait for the next system to line things up better. Forecasts can change though, so don’t write off the whole month.
Stay patient,
Rusty
