The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Antigues Cape over the next couple of weeks.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it's a bit of a slow start. From Sunday the 23rd right through until early on Wednesday the 26th, it’s going to be pretty grim. The wind is a cross-offshore, which means the waves are messy and weak, churning out some poor surf conditions. The swell energy is low to moderate (around 196 to 315), with short-period 4ft to 5ft waves. It's not worth paddling out for.

Now, Wednesday the 26th morning is where things first start to look up. We finally get some proper offshore wind from the ENE, and the swell is a clean 5ft from the East at 8 seconds. The energy is building too (305). It's not a stand-out day, but it’s your first real chance for a surf. The water temp is about average for this time of year.

That little window of decent conditions only hangs around for a bit though. Thursday the 27th and the rest of the week into Saturday the 29th see the wind swing back to cross-off, and while the swell pushes up to 6ft, the wind just wrecks it. The energy gets stronger (up to 537), but the waves are a jumbled mess.

Okay, here’s where we get the real story. Hold onto your boards for Sunday the 30th of August. This is the standout. We’ve got a proper groundswell rolling in. The morning shows a solid 12ft swell from the ENE with a very long 14-second period, and the wind is a clean offshore breeze. The combined energy is a massive 5005 – that’s some serious power. This is for experienced surfers only; this is a big, powerful wave. The afternoon keeps it clean with a 12ft swell (12-second period) and gentle offshore wind, but it’s still heavy. Given the long-period groundswell, Antigues Cape, being a reef break, will handle this beautifully, offering up some clean, well-shaped lines. You can expect crowds out there though, because this is the one to be on.

Monday the 31st of August is still a solid day, but it’s easing off fast. The morning sees a 8ft swell from the East, with a clean wind and moderate energy (1084). It’s a fun, good day of surf for those who can handle it.

After that, things slip away. By the start of September, the wind goes back to cross-off, the swell drops, and the energy fades. There’s a little blip on Thursday the 3rd of September with an offshore wind and 4ft waves, but it’s really not much to write home about. The rest of the first week of September and into the second week is a long, quiet run of poor conditions with small waves and uncooperative wind. The energy stays weak (around 124 to 400) and the swell is inconsistent.

Honestly, if you want the best of it, it’s all about Sunday the 30th of August. That’s your big swell, clean offshore wind, and a long-period groundswell that will turn Antigues Cape on. Be ready for it. Every other day is either blown out or too small to bother.

Rusty.

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.
