The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s chew through this one.

First off, I gotta be straight with you—this ain’t a classic stretch of swell. The dominant energy is coming from the east and east-northeast, which is okay for Antigues Cape, but the wind is the real problem. We’ve got moderate to fresh breezes hanging around, mostly cross-offshore or cross, which keeps the surface clean but the wave quality is just ordinary. The water’s sitting at 83°, which is about normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Wednesday the 22nd kicks off with a weak 3 ft east swell, period only 7 seconds, and combined energy is a low 107—barely a pulse. The wind is cross-off from the ESE at 16 mph, so it’s clean but the waves are just poor. Not worth paddling out.

Thursday the 23rd sees a little more size: 4 ft on the morning, then 4 ft in the afternoon, both from ENE with a short 7-second period. Wind goes offshore in the morning at 19 mph, and then drops to 16 mph offshore in the arvo. The energy picks up to 211 and then 151, but the comment says surfable but very ordinary. It’s a tough call—clean conditions, but the waves aren’t doing much.

Friday the 24th pushes up to 5 ft ENE swell, period stretching to 8 seconds. Morning wind is cross-off at 19 mph, then in the afternoon it’s offshore at 19 mph. Energy jumps to 245 and 345. Still, the reports say marginal or poor. The wind is there, but the swell isn’t shaping up.

Saturday the 25th through Sunday the 26th, there’s a risk of thunderstorms and the swell stays around 4 ft to 6 ft, ENE, 8-second period. Wind is offshore or cross-off, but the scores are still low. It’s frustrating—the ocean is clean, but the waves are just not putting on a show.

The standout window, if you can call it that, shapes up around Thursday the 30th. On the morning of the 30th, we’ve got a 7 ft east swell, 8-second period, with offshore wind at 19 mph. Energy is strong at 550. Then Thursday afternoon, the swell drops slightly to 6 ft, still east-northeast, wind offshore at 16 mph, and combined energy is 510. This is the first time we get a “expect good surf conditions” rating. That afternoon session is the best of the whole forecast—clean, offshore, solid chest-to-head-high waves. For a reef break that’s inconsistent and often crowded, this is the moment to be out there. The swell direction is east-northeast, which matches the optimum of northeast for Antigues Cape, so it’s lining up nicely.

After that, Friday the 31st holds 5 ft east swell, 8 seconds, but the wind goes cross-off and the energy drops. It’s marginal. Then from the 1st of August onward, the swell fades to 3 ft to 5 ft, period drops to 7 seconds, and the wind stays cross-off or offshore but the energy is weak—under 200. The last few days of the forecast, from the 4th to the 6th, are just small and ordinary, with wind mostly offshore but the swell is barely 3 ft to 5 ft.

So, to sum it up: the first week is mostly poor-to-marginal with clean but weak waves. The best bet is Thursday the 30th, especially the afternoon, with a solid 6 ft east-northeast swell, offshore wind, and strong energy. After that, it tapers off into small, weak surf. Don’t expect much else.

Rusty out.

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.
