The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's talk about what's on offer at Antigues Cape.
Look, I'm not gonna sugarcoat it – the next couple of weeks are a real grind for this spot. We're looking at a long stretch of mostly poor surf conditions, with a lot of wind. The swell is coming from the east and east-northeast, which is the right direction for this reef, but the wind is the problem. It's blowing cross-offshore from the east for nearly the whole forecast, which just messes up the face. It's a frustrating run.
The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first real flicker of hope doesn't come until Thursday the 30th of July. The wind finally swings offshore, a moderate breeze from the east, and the swell is around 6 ft from the east with an 8-second period. The combined energy is moderate (439). It's only a marginal call, but it's the cleanest we'll see for a while. It's a reef break, and with that period, it should offer up some shape. But it's for the more experienced surfers – that 6 ft is getting a bit chunky for beginners.
After that, it's back into a messy cross-off wind pattern for days. The swell bumps up a bit around the 7 ft mark on the 29th, but the wind is a fresh breeze, so it'll be choppy and hard to ride. The combined energy gets up to strong levels (579) on the 29th, but it's a waste with that wind.
There's another little window on Monday the 3rd of August. The wind goes offshore again, and we get small, surfable waves of about 3 ft from the east. Nothing special, but it's the most rideable we'll see in that second week. It's a beginner-friendly size, and the reef should be working.
The real standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Thursday the 30th of July. The offshore wind makes it clean, and the 6 ft swell has enough juice to get some nice lines into the reef. It's not a classic, but it's the best we've got. The rest of the time is a battle with the wind. Overall, this is a tough block for Antigues Cape. The waves are there, but the conditions just aren't cooperating.

Information about the Antigues Cape Surf forecast

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.
