The Lowdown
Rusty here again, now in feet and miles for y’all.
So, for Antigues Cape, the first few days are a slow roll. Monday the 24th has some surfable but very ordinary conditions — small 3ft easterly swell, with water temp about 84°, normal for the season. A moderate offshore breeze is cleaning it up but the energy is weak.
Tuesday the 25th looks nearly flat in the morning, but by the afternoon you’ve got a better 5ft easterly swell rolling in with clean offshore wind and moderate energy — decent little session there. Wednesday the 26th holds onto similar 4–5ft easterly swell and offshore breeze. Solid small-wave days.
Thursday the 27th turns more ragged with cross-off winds. Friday the 28th afternoon gets it back: clean offshore, 4-5ft ENE swell and good energy building. That’s a nice session for the first week.
Saturday the 29th is a blown-out mess with strong side winds, even though the swell is head-high at 6ft — skip it.
Sunday the 30th afternoon is where things get interesting: long-period 4ft easterly groundswell (14-second intervals), clean offshore breeze, strong energy. Monday the 31st is the real prize: 6ft ENE swell, 12-second period, light winds, energy hitting strong. This is the best of the whole run. Because it’s a reef break, that long period will produce some proper shaped waves. Crowds are possible.
After that, things are okay through September 1st then start to drop. By the 3rd and 4th we’re down to smaller 3-4ft north-northeast swell, still clean but weaker. From the 5th of September onward, it dies right off with poor conditions until the end of the forecast.
Pick of the litter? Friday the 28th afternoon for clean fun, and Sunday the 30th afternoon through Monday the 31st for the best size and quality.
Rusty.

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.
