Anse du Brick Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a good hard look at what's on the table for Anse du Brick.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day outlook is a bit of a tough one. We've got a long, lean stretch ahead. The first real chance of anything decent doesn't show up until Sunday the 20th of September. That's over a week of waiting with nothing worth paddling out for. The water is running a very unusual 67°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year.

For the next nine days or so, from the 10th through the 19th, it's pretty grim. We see tiny swell, mostly below 3ft, mixed with cross-shore and onshore winds. The energy is weak, with combined swell energy values barely ticking over (like 49 to 145). On the 15th, we get a clean offshore wind from the south, but the swell is a tiny 2ft – not enough push to make it worthwhile.

Now, let's talk about the one real standout. Sunday the 20th of September starts off interesting. The morning brings a glassy conditions with a 5ft swell and a combined energy of 127. But the real action is in the afternoon. The forecast is throwing a massive 12ft swell out of the WNW, with a very short period of 5 seconds, and combined energy hitting a massive 2012. It's going to be a wall of whitewater. The wind is light and onshore from the NNW at 6 mph. But here's the killer: that size is well over 8ft, which makes it strictly for experts only, and for a beginner-friendly spot like this, it's just too much. This setup looks much more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

Following that, Monday the 21st sees leftover, messy swell around 5ft to 6ft, but with onshore winds, it'll be blown out.

We then get a little glimmer on Tuesday the 22nd of September. The morning brings a clean, cross-offshore breeze from the WSW at 9 mph, with a 3ft swell from the west, period of 9 seconds, and moderate energy (293). The forecast actually says "expect good surf conditions" for that window. This is your best bet for a paddle that's not a mission. It's still small, but with clean conditions and a bit of period, you might snag a few fun ones. The afternoon gets a bit bumpy with the wind swinging cross-shore.

After that, it's back to mediocrity through to the 25th, with small, cross-shore slop and dropping energy. The swell tries to push period up to 13 seconds on the 25th, but the direction is poor and the wind is messy.

So, to sum it up: this is a waiting game. The standout moment is the clean window on the morning of Tuesday the 22nd. It's not huge, but it's the cleanest, most organized surf in the whole run. The 20th is a spectacle for the experienced crew, but for most of us, it's a pass. Patience is the name of the game here.

Rusty out.
