Anse du Brick Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.

First up, the water at Anse du Brick is sitting at 67°F right now, which is a fair bit warmer than usual for this time of year—a solid 4°F above the norm, so it's feeling like a warm bath out there.

Now, to be straight with you, the next 16 days are a tough watch. The forecast is pretty much a flat spell. We're looking at a long stretch with no real swell to speak of. The first glimmer of something surfable doesn't show up until Sunday, August 9th, and even then it's barely a whisper.

From now until then, we're looking at a gap of about a week and a half with nothing worth paddling out for. The swell that does show is tiny, with heights mostly below 2 ft, and the combined energy is weak, rarely cracking 40 (42 is the highest early on). The winds are a mess too—mostly onshore or cross-onshore, creating chop and poor conditions.

The one day that might get you wet is Sunday, August 9th, in the morning. At Anse du Brick we might see a tiny 2 ft swell from the W, with a period of 8 seconds, and a combined energy of 60. The wind will be light and offshore from the E, making for clean conditions. It's still small, and the guidance says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions," so don't expect much. Still, it's the only real chance in the whole outlook.

The rest of the second week is more of the same—small, weak, and messy. The wind stays cross or cross-onshore, and the swell doesn't build. There's no standout swell here, no big groundswell to get excited about. Just a long, flat stretch.

So, if you're desperate for a paddle, mark Sunday, August 9th, for a morning session at Anse du Brick. Otherwise, it's a waiting game. The setup here is more suited for a kite than a paddle on any other day.

Rusty.
