The Lowdown
Alright, folks. Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening at Antigues Cape for the next 16 days.
It’s a rough start. The first ten days or so are pretty much a loss for decent paddle surfing. The wind is mostly cross-off, and the conditions are poor. You’ll see some swell, mostly 2 ft to 6 ft from the East and East-North-East, but the energy is low to moderate (62 to 461) and the wind just won’t cooperate. This is a reef break, so it needs clean conditions to work, and we’re not getting them.
The water temperature is about 84°F, which is normal for the time of year.
The first real chance comes on Friday, September 11th. The wind finally goes offshore, with a 5 ft swell from the East at 8 seconds. The energy is moderate (297). It’s marginal, but it’s a start. Saturday, September 12th is the standout. The morning has a fresh offshore wind and a 6 ft swell from the East. The afternoon is the best of the whole run. The swell hits 6 ft from the East, period of 8 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the East-North-East. The energy is strong (436). This is the one to aim for – clean, solid, and on a reef. The water is warm, and since it’s a reef, that east swell will wrap in nicely. Expect crowds, as it’s often busy.
After that, the wind goes back to cross-off for several more days, with poor conditions. The surf drops back to 3 ft to 5 ft through the middle of the week. The next potential window is on Friday, September 18th. The wind goes offshore again, but with a small 3 ft swell from the East and a short period of 7 to 8 seconds. The energy is weak (108 to 101). It’s surfable but ordinary. A small, clean day for the longboards.
Overall, there’s a lot of waiting, but the weekend of the 11th to the 12th is your best bet. Saturday the 12th afternoon is the one to circle. The rest of the run is either blown out or too small.
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.
