The Lowdown

Right, let’s cut through the chatter and get into it. This is Rusty, and I’ve got the lowdown on Antigues Cape for the next couple of weeks.

First off, we’re looking at a bit of a slow start here. The water is sitting at a warm 85°, which is about what you’d expect for this time of year, so nothing weird going on there. The first real sniff of anything worthwhile won’t happen until Saturday the 22nd, but honestly, it’s pretty weak. The swell is a tiny 4ft out of the east with a short period of 7 seconds and the combined energy is only 171 – that’s weak, mate. It’s clean, but the wind is a moderate breeze, and the surf is just poor. It’s a frustrating wait.

Sunday the 23rd through to Tuesday the 27th is a real mixed bag of similar small, average east swell, mostly in the 3ft to 4ft range. The wind stays cross-off or offshore, keeping things tidy, but the energy is still moderate at best. The best of this period looks like Thursday morning, the 27th. We’ll see a 5ft east swell with a 7-second period, but the energy picks up to 350 (moderate), and we’ve got offshore winds. It’s rated as “expect good surf conditions,” so that’s your first real window for a wave.

Now, hold onto your boardies, because the standout is building for Saturday the 29th afternoon. The swell jumps to 8ft from the east-northeast, energy hits 736 (strong), and the wind is offshore. This is labelled “expect very good surf conditions.” But the absolute peak comes on Sunday, the 30th of August. We’re talking a solid 12ft east swell with a long period of 11 seconds – that’s proper groundswell. The combined energy is a massive 3389 (very strong wave energy), and we have light offshore winds from the northeast. This is expert territory, boys. It’s going to be powerful and clean, and with that long period, it’ll be a bit straight at this beach-and-reef setup, but it’s the best on offer by a long shot. The shapes should be incredible.

After that, the surf drops off fast. Monday the 31st sees onshore wind and poor conditions, and the rest of the first week of September fades into small, weak, cross-off slop, with the energy dropping back to weak (89-114) and tiny waves. It’s a real letdown after that Sunday.

So, to keep it simple: forget the first week. The best bet is Sunday the 30th of August. That 12ft east swell with offshore winds is the one. It’s not for the faint-hearted, but for the experienced crew, it’s going to be pumping. For the rest of us, Thursday the 27th morning offers a smaller, cleaner option.

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.
