The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer.
To be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for the most part. We’ve got a real drought of decent swell. The water’s running at 67°F and that’s 4°F warmer than usual for this time of year, which is notable – a solid 4°F warmer than normal.
Our only spot with any kind of recommendation is Anse du Brick. It’s a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent break that’s exposed to the WNW. The first week and a half is basically a write-off, with waves mostly under 2 ft and poor conditions. That’s a long gap of about 9 days with nothing to shout about.
The first flicker of hope comes on Saturday, August 8th in the morning. We’ve got a 4 ft swell from the NNW, but the period is a short 5 seconds, so it’s not got much push. The combined swell energy is just 74 (weak). The wind is a light cross-offshore from the SE, which will keep it clean. The call is “surfable but very ordinary,” so it’s a small, weak wave for the patient surfer.
Then there’s a glimmer on Monday, August 10th in the afternoon. Swell hits 5 ft from the west, but the period is a short 7 seconds. The combined energy is 206 (moderate), so there’s some power. The problem is the wind is a fresh 19 mph from the west, which is cross-shore and will make it lumpy. That’s a messy setup for a paddle surf – honestly, that wind and swell combo might be more interesting for a kite.
The last small window is on Wednesday, August 12th in the morning. Glassy conditions with 2 ft of west swell, 8-second period, and combined energy of 59 (weak). The wind is calm, so it’ll be clean, but it’s just not much to get excited about.
Overall, it’s a bleak run. The only real standout, if you can call it that, is the Saturday, August 8th morning session at Anse du Brick, where you’ll find a clean but tiny wave. The August 10th afternoon bump has more energy but is too choppy for a proper surf. The rest of the 16 days are a snooze.
Rusty.
