The Lowdown
Right, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Antigues Cape over the next couple of weeks. I’ve gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch.
The whole 16-day window is pretty much a write-off for a proper surf. There’s not a single moment where I’d say “get in the water right now.” The first real glimmer of anything decent doesn’t show up until Saturday the 12th of September, and even then it’s marginal. Before that, we’re looking at a solid 11-day gap with nothing worth paddling out for – just constant cross-off winds and waves that never quite come together.
Let’s talk about the only highlight, and even then, keep your expectations in check. On Saturday the 12th of September, the afternoon session at Antigues Cape (a reef break, beginner-friendly but inconsistent, and with crowds often around) sees a shift. Swell comes in at 5 ft from the east, with a period of 8 seconds. The wind goes offshore from the ENE at 16 mph, which should give you a cleaner face. The combined swell energy is moderate at 304. It’s not a classic, but it’s the best you’ll see all period. The water’s sitting at 84°F, which is bang on average for this time of year.
Before that, through early September, it’s just poor. Expect chest-high to head-high waves, but the wind is always cross-off or side-shore, ruining any chance of a good shape. The energy is weak to moderate, with readings mostly in the 70s to 190s. On the 9th and 10th, the swell bumps up to nearly 7 ft, and the energy jumps into the 400s and 500s, but the wind stays messy with a fresh breeze, making it a tough, choppy mess. That’s kite-surfing territory, not paddle surfing.
After the 12th, it all fades back to mediocrity. Swell drops, wind stays cross-off, and we’re back to poor surf conditions right through to the 16th.
So, for the keen ones, keep your eye on the afternoon of Saturday the 12th. It’s your only window for something clean, albeit not epic. Other than that, the board stays in the car.

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.

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.
