The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Antigues Cape.
Honestly, it’s a quiet stretch ahead. We’ve got a run of days where the ocean’s just not cooperating, with poor surf conditions dominating the whole sixteen-day window. There’s a real gap at the start here – nothing worth paddling out for on Saturday the 12th or Sunday the 13th, and Monday the 14th’s not much better. The surf's small and the wind's working against us. You’re looking at a whole week of pretty ordinary stuff.
The only real flicker of something half-decent comes around Tuesday the 15th in the morning. We’ve got a 3ft swell rolling in from the east, period around 8 seconds – a short period wind swell, so it’ll be a bit lumpy. The wind's offshore from the east at 12 mph, which is a major positive, keeping the surface clean. The combined energy is weak, sitting at 170, so it’s not packing much punch. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. Wednesday the 16th morning is similar – 4ft from the ENE, 6-second period, another offshore breeze, but again, weak energy at 118. After that, it just fades right out.
The crowds are a potential issue here too – Antigues Cape (a reef setup) can get busy, so even on those marginal days you might have company. For a beginner, the swell’s not too big, but the quality is so poor it’s hardly worth the effort. The water temp anomaly isn’t mentioned, so it’s about average for the time of year.
Beyond that first week, it’s a real blank run. From the 19th right through to the 27th of September, the swell drops to knee-high dribble – 1ft to 2ft – with short periods and cross-off winds. Just not worth getting wet.
There’s no standout here. The best on offer is Tuesday the 15th morning, but that’s a low bar. It’s one of those periods where you’re better off checking the forecasts again in a few days – things can change.

Information about the Antigues Cape Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Antigues Cape provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Antigues Cape can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Antigues Cape surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Antigues Cape) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Antigues Cape may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
