The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you—this 16-day stretch for Anse de Rémire is a proper struggle. We’re looking at a long run of nothing but poor surf conditions, with the entire forecast period offering zero standout sessions. The water’s sitting at a warm 84°F, which is about normal for this time of year, but that’s the only thing that’s not a letdown.
The first recommendation comes up on Friday the 31st of July, with tiny swell from the NE at 2ft to 2ft and a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is weak (79 to 101), and the wind is cross-onshore from the ESE and E at 9 to 12 mph, making it choppy and messy. Not worth paddling out for.
Saturday the 1st of August is more of the same—swell drops to 2ft to 3ft, period shortening to 8 seconds, and the cross-onshore breeze keeps it rough. The energy is weak to moderate (97 to 151), but it’s all poor quality.
From Sunday the 2nd of August right through to Saturday the 15th of August, it’s a relentless run of tiny swell (1ft to 3ft), short periods mostly between 4 and 10 seconds, and constant cross-onshore or cross-shore winds from the E and ESE at 9 to 12 mph. The combined energy rarely breaks triple digits, sitting mostly between 21 and 178—all weak to moderate. Every single window is marked as poor surf conditions.
There’s no standout here. No clean swell, no offshore winds, no real energy. The spot is exposed and always crowded, but honestly, with zero quality on offer, the crowds won’t be an issue. For a more experienced crew, the setup might look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing given the consistent onshore breeze.
It’s a blank run, plain and simple. Forecasts can change, but right now, leave the boards at home.
Rusty.
