The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s run through the next couple of weeks at Cocoa. The first chance to get wet is Sunday the 26th with a tiny wave. After that, the ocean gets some size but the wind messes it up, and you’ll be waiting a while for anything decent. The water is sitting at 83°, which is about average for this time of year.
Sunday 26th July (afternoon): First surf of the run. Small 4 ft swell out of the ENE, with a short 8-second period. The east wind at 6 mph is cross-off, keeping it clean enough. The combined energy is weak at 135. It’s there, but it’s not a day to get excited about.
Monday 27th to Thursday 30th July: Wave heights build through the week, hitting a peak around 8 ft on Wednesday afternoon. The problem is the east wind ramps up to 16-19 mph. It stays cross-off, but the size and wind make for “poor” and “marginal” conditions. The combined energy climbs from 119 up to 719 on Wednesday, but the quality is just not there for a surfer. With that wind and a beach break set-up, it’s looking more like a kite-surfing day.
Friday 31st July to Monday 3rd August: Swell backs off from 6 ft down to 3 ft, with wind holding steady at 12-16 mph cross-off. The reports keep saying marginal or poor. Combined energy drops from 450 to 109. Nothing to recommend here.
Tuesday 4th August to Thursday 6th August: Flat. Swell drops to 0.7 ft to 3 ft, and the combined energy sinks as low as 11. The wind is still cross-off, but there’s nothing to ride. A proper lull, so leave the board at home.
Friday 7th August to Sunday 9th August: A small pulse arrives. Swell returns to 4-5 ft, but with a short 7-second period. The east wind blows at 16-19 mph, leaving the surface lumpy. Combined energy climbs to 204-206 on Saturday, but it’s still only marginal. By Sunday afternoon, the wave comment mentions a “moderate cross-shore with a cross-chop.”
Monday 10th August: One last bump of 4 ft swell with a 6-second period. Wind at 19 mph, combined energy at 137, and another poor call.
The best of a tough bunch? Wednesday 29th July has the biggest swell at 8 ft with strong energy (719), but the 19 mph cross-off wind ruins it for a surfer. If you’re picking, the late afternoon on Saturday 8th August shows 5 ft from the E, moderate energy (206), and a cross-off breeze. It’s only marginal, but it’s the most consistent-looking session in this run. There’s no true standout; most of this is a write-off.
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.
