The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at the upcoming swell window for Anse du Brick. I gotta be straight with you, it's a tough stretch ahead. The water's sitting at 67°F—that's much warmer than normal for this time of year, a solid 4°F above average, which is notable.
For the most part, we're looking at a long run of poor surf conditions. From Tuesday the 11th right through to the 21st of August, there's nothing really worth paddling out for. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, and the combined energy stays weak. It's a real flat spell.
We finally see a bit of a pulse kicking in on Saturday the 22nd of August. The morning shows some potential with a 6ft swell from the west, a period of 7 seconds, and cross-offshore wind. The combined energy jumps up to moderate (266), and conditions are described as clean. This is the best on offer in the whole 16-day outlook, but it’s still only a marginal call. That 6ft swell is starting to get a bit much for beginners.
Saturday afternoon, the wind swings to a fresh cross-shore from the west at 18 mph, and the wave quality drops right off into lumpy, poor conditions. After that, Sunday the 23rd sees the swell fade quickly and the fresh wind hangs around, making for messy, lumpy surf.
Monday the 24th and Tuesday the 25th return to tiny, weak conditions. The only small silver lining is Tuesday morning, the 25th, with a light 1.0ft swell, cross-offshore breeze, and clean conditions—but it's barely a ripple.
So to wrap it up, the one day that might offer a window is the morning of Saturday the 22nd. It’s not a classic, but it’s the only real pulse in the period. Keep your expectations low.
Rusty.
