The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Cocoa’s got cooking for us over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a slow start. The first few days are pretty grim – a lot of cross-off winds and messy, weak surf with energy barely getting past 129 (combined energy). The water’s sitting at 83°, pretty much normal for this time of year, so no worries there. But you’re not missing much until we get to Sunday the 26th. That morning, the wind drops to a gentle 9 mph from the ESE, still cross-off, and we see a bit of a bump in energy (202) with 4 ft of ENE swell. It’s not firing, but it’s the first session that’s actually worth a paddle. The afternoon is a step back, though.
The real standout looks like it’ll be the morning of Saturday the 1st of August. Winds are light and cross-off from the ESE at 9 mph, the swell is a clean 5 ft from the ENE, and the energy is sitting at 257. It’s not huge, but the conditions are looking good for a solid, fun session. Crowds are only *sometimes* an issue here, so you might get a few waves to yourself if you’re early. The reef handles the ENE direction well, so the shape should be there.
The only other blip worth mentioning is the morning of the 29th of July. That’s a bigger pulse of 7 ft from the E, with energy ramping up to 587, but the wind is a stiff 19 mph cross-off. That’s going to be a choppy, hard-to-handle mess for most, so unless you’re an expert, I’d give it a miss. The afternoon of the 1st of August is the pick for the cleaner, more manageable waves.
So, to sum it up: the first week is mostly a write-off, but Sunday the 26th is a tease, and Saturday the 1st of August is the one to circle. After that, it trails off again into small, weak stuff. Keep an eye on the forecasts, but for now, that Saturday morning is your best bet.
Stay salty,
Rusty

Information about the Cocoa Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Cocoa provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Cocoa can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Cocoa 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 (Cocoa) 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 Cocoa 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.
Cocoa is 6 km (4 miles) from Petite Riviere Salee. If you plan a holiday in Martinique, look for hotels and other accommodation in Petite Riviere Salee. Petite Riviere Salee has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
