The Lowdown
Alright, let’s break down what Antigues Cape (reef) has in store. The water temp is about 29°, dead average for this time of year, nothing weird going on.
The first few days are a total write-off. From Thursday the 6th through Wednesday the 12th, the swell is tiny – between 3 ft and 5 ft – with short, weak periods of just 6 to 8 seconds. The wind is either cross-off or offshore, so it’s clean, but the energy is pathetic, barely a ripple. The forecast says poor surf or very ordinary conditions. Don’t bother. There’s a solid four- to five-day gap with nothing worth paddling for.
Starting Thursday the 13th, things perk up. Swell hits 6 ft from the east, period stretches to 8 seconds, and the wind is offshore but fresh at 30 to 35 km/h. Combined energy jumps to moderate levels. It’s still called marginal, but the sets will have some punch. This is for experienced surfers only, as 6 ft with that wind can get messy.
The real standout is Sunday the 16th afternoon. That’s the session to wait for. We’re talking a solid 8 ft of east-northeast groundswell, with a 9-second period. The combined energy is strong at 1013. Wind is offshore from the east at 25 km/h. This is the best on offer – expect very good surf. Because it’s a reef, that longer period will wrap in nicely. But 8 ft is expert-only territory. The break is inconsistent, so be patient. Crowds are likely, so get there early.
Saturday the 15th is also good with 8–8 ft and offshore wind, and Monday the 17th morning still has some size at 7 ft, but there’s a risk of thunderstorms. Sunday afternoon is the clear winner.
After that, the swell fades fast, dropping back to 4–5 ft with weak period and poor conditions. The good window is tight, but if you nail that Sunday afternoon, you’ll be smiling.
