The Lowdown
What's happening, crew? Rusty here with a look at the situation at Antigues Cape. It's going to be a test of your patience. There's some swell due, but wind and conditions are going to be a battle.
Starting Friday the 21st of August, there's some wave height, but it's a rough start. You’ve got a 5ft easterly swell, but it’s short period at 8 seconds, and that east wind is cranking at 25 km/h. Water temp is a warm 85°, average for the season. The energy is weak (254). The word on the street is poor conditions. Leave the stick at home.
From Friday the 21st to Monday the 24th, it's a total blank. Swell drops to 3ft to 4ft, periods stay short (7-8 seconds), and the winds are just messy. Energy is low, from 133 to 219. Not worth the drive.
Tuesday the 25th brings a bump in energy to 408, with a 5ft to 6ft east-northeast swell. But the period is still short (8-9 seconds), and the wind is fresh at 30 km/h from the ESE. It's clean on the surface, but the quality is poor. Choppy lines.
Wednesday the 26th is a maybe. Swell holds at 4ft to 5ft, and we finally get proper offshore wind from the ENE at 25 km/h. Energy is moderate (283 to 301). The report says "marginal," but with clean offshore wind, a dawn patrol might snag a couple.
Thursday the 27th: forget it. 5ft east swell, short period, moderate cross-offshore winds, poor all around.
Friday the 28th of August the swell builds to 6ft to 6ft. Energy jumps to 531, but with fresh onshore wind and thunderstorms, it’s a messy windswell.
The one to circle: Saturday the 29th of August. That’s your day. Saturday afternoon is the standout. We’ve got a solid 8ft easterly swell with a longer 9-second period, packing a punch. The wave energy is strong at 1131. The wind is offshore from the east at a manageable 25 km/h. The report says “expect very good surf conditions.” The morning of the 29th is a bigger 10ft, but that’s expert-only territory with cross-offshore wind.
Sunday the 30th has leftovers: a 6ft to 5ft east swell with clean offshore winds. Energy drops to moderate-high (362 to 552). It’s okay, but not the day.
From Monday the 31st of August through to Saturday the 5th of September, it’s a long, dry spell. Swell drops, winds turn fresh from the SSE and SE, periods are short (6-8 seconds), and the energy stays low to moderate (122 to 304). Conditions are poor.
Final call: Rideable surf is basically non-existent for the first week and a half. Save your energy for Saturday the 29th of August. That 8ft east swell with offshore wind is the only real chance for a good, clean session at the Cape.

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.
