Table - best surf conditions forecast for Antigues Cape over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
We’ve only got one spot on the radar for this whole 16-day stretch, and that’s Antigues Cape. It’s a reef setup, fairly exposed to the swell, and it wants the swell from the NE. The water temp is sitting at 83°, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The run starts on Sunday, July 12th. The morning is actually the cleanest we’ll see for a while – a solid 5ft of east-northeast swell, period a short 8 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the east. The wave energy is moderate (338). It’s a bit inconsistent here, but that morning window is your best bet. The afternoon holds similar size at 5ft, but the conditions are still okay.
Then, from Monday the 13th right through to the end of the week, it’s a bit of a write-off. The wind swings cross-offshore, the period drops to 7 seconds, and the wave energy dips into the low 200s. The forecast calls it “poor” for days on end. There’s surf, but it’s just not going to be any good. There’s a small flicker on Thursday afternoon, July 16th, with the wind going offshore again, but the swell is only 4ft on a weak 7-second period, and the energy is down to 184. It’s surfable, but very ordinary.
The next real chance doesn’t pop up until Monday, July 20th. That morning and afternoon both show 5ft to 6ft of east swell, an 8-second period, and the wind is finally offshore. The energy bumps back up to 384. It’s a solid, clean option for the intermediate crew. After that, it’s back to the same old story of cross-off winds and small, weak swell for the rest of the month.
If you’re looking for the standout, it’s a tight call between the two Sunday mornings. The very first one on July 12th is the cleanest, but the Monday the 20th has slightly more size and energy. I’d lean towards Monday, July 20th, for the best chance at a decent session, but don’t expect perfection. It’s a reef, it’s inconsistent, and the crowds are often there. Keep your expectations in check.
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.
