The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get real about this stretch.
Honestly, it’s a tough watch. The whole 16-day window is mostly a flat, dead zone. From now until the end of August, there’s just nothing. The only time we see a twitch is on the 13th of August, with a tiny 0.3ft north swell at Batts Rock. It’s got a 15-second period, so it’s a real groundswell, but the combined energy is only 4 – that’s a whisper. The wind is a solid 35 km/h offshore, so it’s clean, but with no waves, it’s a waste of time. The same thing happens on the 14th, with a 0.7ft swell and a 12-second period, energy at 12, but the wind is a brutal 40 km/h. That’s not surfable. For a spot like Batts Rock (Barbados) that’s a point break and inconsistent, this kind of run is pretty normal for the area. The water is sitting at 83°F, which is about average for the time of year.
There’s no standout. Nothing to get excited about. If you’re desperate for a paddle, maybe the 13th or 14th, but don’t hold your breath. It’s more of a kite scene right now. Keep an eye out, things can change.

Information about the Batts Rock Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Batts Rock provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Batts Rock can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Batts Rock 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 (Batts Rock) 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 Batts Rock 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.
