The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way for the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this stretch is a tough one. We’ve got a long gap of poor surf conditions with nothing worth paddling out for. The first bit of hope doesn’t show up until Tuesday the 22nd, so don’t bother waxing up before then.
The water is sitting at a warm 85°F right now, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a steamer.
Looking at Antigues Cape, the only spot on the menu. This is a reef break, beginner-friendly, but it’s inconsistent and faces NE, which matches the guidance’s optimum direction. The issue is the wind. For days on end, we’ve got a cross-off breeze from the east at 12 to 19 mph, and the swell is small and weak – mostly around 2ft to 5ft, but with short periods of 6 to 8 seconds. The wave energy is weak to moderate at best, with values like 261 (moderate) on Monday the 14th, dropping to a feeble 60 by Saturday the 19th. The forecast keeps calling it “poor surf conditions” or “marginal,” and honestly, it’s not worth your time.
The first real glimmer comes on Tuesday morning, September 22nd. We finally see an offshore wind from the ENE at 16 mph, a 3ft swell from the east with a period of 10 seconds – that’s a longer-period groundswell, which should offer a bit more shape and energy (174 moderate energy). The comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” and the score is a 1 out of 10. It’s clean, but it’s not a standout – just the best of a bad bunch.
After that, it gets messy again. A risk of thunderstorms and cross-off winds kick back in, and the swell stays small and weak. By Tuesday the 29th, we’re still looking at 4ft, short-period slop from the east, with energy around 248 (moderate), but the wind is cross-off and the conditions are poor.
So, the standout here – and I use the term loosely – is Tuesday the 22nd (Antigues Cape). It’s the only time we get offshore wind and a slightly longer period. The swell is small at 3ft from the east, but it’ll be clean. Expect crowds though, as this spot can get busy.
Honestly, for the next 16 days, there’s nothing to get excited about. It’s a dry spell. But this area can change fast, so don’t lose hope – forecasts can flip.
Stay safe,
Rusty
