The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s break down the Antigues Cape forecast for you.
Gotta be honest with you, the next 16 days are a tough sell. We’ve got swell coming in, but the wind is a real issue. For the first 12 days, it’s locked in from the east and southeast as a cross-off shore, just wrecking the shape. Wave energy goes from moderate (143) all the way up to strong (579) around Wednesday July 29th and Thursday July 30th, with chest-to-overhead sets at 7ft to 7ft from the east, but that wind makes it a choppy, blown-out mess. This is way more of a kiteboarding setup than a surf session. Periods are short, around 7-8 seconds, so it’s just lumpy wind swell.
Water temp is 84°, which is pretty average for the season.
There’s one small window of hope. On Tuesday August 4th, the wind finally goes offshore (ENE and E at 12 mph). The swell drops to a little 3ft from the east-northeast, and the energy is weak (79-80), but the surface will be clean and glassy. The break is *inconsistent*, so you might find a couple of fun ones if you’re patient, but it’s strictly a small-wave session.
After that, it flatlines on Wednesday August 5th to a tiny 0.7ft (energy 13-14). A little pulse returns on Friday August 7th and Saturday August 8th, with 5ft to 6ft east swell (energy 266-349), but that cross-off wind comes back, making it messy. Saturday afternoon August 8th offers a brief hope with a light offshore wind and 5ft from the east (8 seconds, energy 310). It’s described as marginal, but if you’re desperate, it might be the cleanest option in a pretty rough outlook.
No clear standouts here, folks. The wind is the story.
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.
