The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cookin’ for Anse du Brick over the next couple of weeks.
First off, I gotta be straight with you – the water is unusually warm right now, sitting at 67°, which is a solid 4° above what we’d normally expect for this time of year. That’s a pretty big deal, so don’t expect that usual cool shock when you paddle out.
Now, the bad news: we’ve got a long, dry spell ahead. The first record shows nothing rideable until we get to the morning of Friday, August 7th, and even that’s a bit of a stretch. That’s a solid week of flat, choppy, and just plain poor conditions. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, and the swell is tiny—usually under 3ft—with short, weak periods. The combined energy is barely registering, often in the teens or single digits. For a beginner-friendly spot, there’s just nothing to get excited about.
On Friday, August 7th, the morning shows a little pulse of energy. We’ve got a 5ft swell from the northeast, with a period of 6 seconds. That’s a short-period wind swell, but the combined energy jumps to 127 (moderate wave energy). The wind is a cross-shore breeze from the west, which will keep it from being too messy. It’s still not great, but it’s the best we’ll see. Keep your expectations low, though—this is a shoulder-high, messy wave at best.
The only other glimmer is on Tuesday, August 11th, in the morning. The wind goes glassy—dead calm from the south—and there’s a 4ft swell from the northeast with a 6-second period, energy at 126. That glassy wind is a big positive, but the swell is still short-period and the forecast says "very ordinary conditions." It’s surfable, but it’s not going to be a classic.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day window, there’s no standout session. The best of a poor bunch is that Friday, August 7th morning, with the biggest swell of the period, but even then, it’s only 5ft. For a beginner spot, that’s fine, but the quality is low. The crowds are "sometimes" here, so you might have the place to yourself on a day like this, which is a small silver lining. But I wouldn’t be making any plans.
Stay patient, and keep your eyes on the forecasts. Things can change.
Rusty.
