The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Antigues Cape over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a bit of a flat spell to kick things off, and it's gonna be a long wait for anything decent. The first recommendation doesn't actually pop up until Thursday, September 10th. Before that, from Tuesday the 1st all the way through to Wednesday the 9th, it's pretty much a write-off. We're looking at tiny, weak, mostly cross-off junk. The swell is small and the wind is just messing it up. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no need for a thicker wetsuit just yet.
The standout window is Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th of September. That's when things finally line up. On Thursday the 10th, we get a solid 7 ft easterly swell on the morning pushing through to 6 ft in the afternoon. The combined energy jumps up to a very punchy 553 (strong). The real kicker though, is the wind goes proper offshore from the east-northeast, which is going to groom those waves beautifully. That is clean, lined-up surf for the taking.
Friday the 11th is still solid, with the swell easing slightly to 5 ft, but still straight east and with that same offshore wind. It'll be a bit more manageable than Thursday. The energy is still strong at 329. This is your next best bet. Just bear in mind, Antigues Cape is an inconsistent reef set-up, and it can get crowded often, so get in early.
After that, from Saturday the 12th onward, it drops off again. The wind swings back to cross-off and the swell just dies. There's a tiny blip of a very long period 12-second groundswell on the 15th, but it's only 0.7 ft, so absolutely no use.
To sum it up: if you can, aim for Thursday the 10th for the biggest and cleanest waves, or Friday the 11th for still-good, slightly smaller surf. The rest is a waiting game.
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.
