The Lowdown

Alright, let's get into it. Rusty here again, and after looking at this stretch, I'm going to level with you: it's a slow start, but there's some real muscle coming if you're patient. The beginning is pretty weak, then we get a serious pulse of energy, then it drops off again.

The first few days, from Saturday through Tuesday, are pretty small and gutless. We're looking at waves in the 3 to 5 foot range, with periods of 6-7 seconds. The energy is weak, sitting around 132 to 282. It's clean, mind you – offshore winds keep it tidy – but there's just no push. Saturday morning is a dud, and Monday afternoon is only marginally better. You'd be struggling to find a decent wave.

Wednesday is more of the same, with 4-5 foot surf and weak energy. Then on Thursday the 13th, you can feel the ocean start to wake up. The swell builds to around 7 feet by the afternoon, with energy jumping to 535. It's getting there, but it's still not great.

Now, Friday the 14th is where things get serious. We're looking at a solid 11-12 foot swell from the east, with a period of 10 seconds. The energy reading is 2448 – that's a lot of power. The wind is fresh offshore, so it will be clean, but this is heavy. This is for experts only. Don't even think about it if you're not experienced. Saturday the 15th is still big, around 7-8 feet, but the wind is howling at 25 mph offshore, making it tough to get out back.

The real standout is Saturday the 16th and Monday the 17th. Saturday has a strong 10-foot swell from the ENE with a 9-second period and energy of 1446. The offshore wind is fresh, so it should be clean and powerful. This is the one. Monday is just as big, hitting 11-12 feet, but the wind swings to the north, which is cross-offshore. It'll be a bit more lined up, but still good. These are the biggest, most powerful swells of the entire window. The water temp is about 84°, which is roughly average for this time of year.

After that, it's back to earth. From Tuesday the 18th onward, the swell fades quickly. We're back down to 3-7 foot waves, with the energy dropping to the 160-577 range. The wind goes cross-offshore, so conditions stay clean, but the power is gone. The second week is a quiet one.

So, in short: don't bother with the first few days. The action is Friday the 14th through Monday the 17th. My pick is Saturday the 16th: 10 feet of ENE swell, clean offshore wind, and strong energy. That's your best bet. Friday and Monday are also solid, but Saturday is the winner.

Antigues Cape (Antilles) can get crowded, so be prepared for that. It's a reef, and it doesn't break all that often, so when it's on, it's on. But with this size, only the experienced crew should be out there. Keep it safe.

Rusty, signing off.

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.
