The Lowdown
Alright, this is a tough one to call. Let’s be straight with you—Anse du Brick (L-Ansedu-Brick) is looking pretty flat and messy for the next week and a half. The whole 16-day window is basically a write-off for decent waves. Nothing’s getting above a 1 out of 10 in the finder, and most days are marked as poor surf conditions. There’s a big gap of nothing from now until around the 26th of August, so you’re looking at nearly a week and a half of small, chopped-out junk.
The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing weird there.
The only faint glimmer comes on the morning of Wednesday the 26th of August. We’ve got a small 3ft swell rolling in from the WNW, with a period of 10 seconds. That’s a groundswell pulse, which is better than the windswill we’ve been seeing. The combined energy is moderate at 135. The wind is a light offshore from the WSW, turning it clean. It’s the one moment where you could get a few clean, rideable waves. But let’s be real—it’s small and the quality is only “surfable but very ordinary.” Crowds are possible at this spot.
Before that, on the Tuesday afternoon of the 25th, there’s a tiny 1ft WNW swell with a 10-second period and clean conditions due to a light cross-offshore breeze. The combined energy is only 34, so it’s barely a ripple. Only for a longboard or a foiler.
After the 26th, it goes back to poor onshore slop for the rest of August. The morning of the 30th has a 4ft W swell with a short 7-second period and onshore wind—so it’s just lumpy, choppy, and not worth paddling out.
Honestly, this is a classic flat spell for this area. If you’re desperate, the 26th morning is your only hope, but don’t expect much. For now, I’d leave the boards in the car and go for a swim.
