Table - best surf conditions forecast for Bagasse over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’m gonna be straight with you – this outlook for Bagasse is a tough one. It’s a solid 16-day run ahead, but there’s a real lack of quality on offer. The wind just won’t get out of the way, staying cross-off or cross for most of it, and the swell is short-period, weak stuff. Don’t get your hopes up for anything special. For the first week and a half, from Monday the 13th right through to the middle of next week, you’re looking at a long stretch of poor surf conditions. The swell sits between 4ft and 6ft from the E to ENE, but with periods barely hitting 7 to 8 seconds, the wave energy is low. The wind is a persistent 12 to 19 mph breeze, and while it’s often clean, a cross-off wind like that isn’t offshore by any stretch.
Now, the only period that even flirts with being surfable is from Tuesday the 21st of July afternoon through Thursday the 23rd of July. The swell is 5ft to 5ft from the ENE with a short 8-second period. The wind turns cross-off and lighter, around 12 mph. The forecast calls it "marginal" – and that’s being kind. It’s a reef break, it’s fairly consistent, and it’s exposed to the north, which is the optimum swell direction, so it’s doing what it can. But with that short period, it’s going to be a lumpy, energy-sapped wave. If you’re desperate for a paddle, that mid-week window is your only real shot, but don’t expect any standout surf. The rest of the run is a write-off for quality waves. We’ll have to wait and see if forecasts change, because it tends not to stay this poor for long.
Rusty.

Information about the Bagasse Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Bagasse provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Bagasse can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Bagasse 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 (Bagasse) 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 Bagasse 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.
Bagasse is 24 km (15 miles) from Sainte-Marie. If you plan a holiday in Martinique, look for hotels and other accommodation in Sainte-Marie. Sainte-Marie has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
