The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day stretch for Cocoa is a real mixed bag, and mostly a flat one at that. It’s going to be a long wait for anything decent. We’re looking at a solid gap of about three days right now with no surf worth paddling out for.
The first hint of something rideable shows up on Wednesday the 29th of July. It’s not pretty, but it’s where we start. The swell bumps up to 7ft to 7ft from the east, with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy hits a moderate 573 to 659. That’s some punch, but it’s coming in with a fresh breeze from the east at 19 mph, making it cross-offshore. The forecast calls it marginal, and honestly, with that much wind and a short-period swell, it’s gonna be bumpy and a bit of a chore. This size is too much for beginners, and the wind won’t help. It’s not the standout.
Thursday the 30th and Friday the 31st look similar – swell hanging around 6ft to 7ft, still east, still that same short 8-second period. The wind drops a little to 16 mph, keeping it cross-offshore and clean-looking. The combined energy is still moderate (403 to 666). The surf is still marginal; it’s not bad, but it’s not great. The water temp is a warm 83°, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Now, the real standout window starts to focus on Saturday the 1st of August through Sunday the 2nd, but it’s a tease. The swell drops back to 4ft to 5ft, and the energy falls off to 183 to 260. The wind is cleaner, but the size is small. It’s marginal, but it’s the best of a weak bunch.
The rest of the week into the second week falls apart. From Monday the 3rd onward, the swell is mostly small, the period is short, and the wave comment is consistently “poor.” There’s a glimmer on Thursday the 6th of August in the afternoon, with a 5ft east swell and 6 second period, but that’s a short-period windswell that’s not going to hold shape. The wind picks up again, and the combined energy is low to moderate. Long-range, from the 7th to the 11th, it’s a lot of the same – small, short-period stuff, with fresh breezes and poor conditions. Nothing to get excited about.
The best on offer is probably the early morning of Wednesday the 29th of July, but it’s only for the more experienced crew. If you’re a beginner, give it a miss. For the rest of the window, it’s a waiting game.
This is Rusty, signing off.

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.
