The Lowdown

Alright, let’s be straight with you. It’s a tough stretch ahead for Indicas. The finder is pretty much a wasteland for the next week and a half. We’re looking at a whole lot of small, choppy, and messy conditions with onshores and cross-onshores blowing through most of it. The first real glimmer of something clean doesn't show up until Saturday the 19th, and even then it’s barely surfable.

From Tuesday the 8th through Friday the 18th, it's mostly poor surf. The swell stays small, mostly under 3 feet, with periods in that short, weak 5 to 9 second range. Energy readings are mostly in the low to mid hundreds (94 to 194), which is weak to moderate at best. The wind is all over it, mostly from the east and southeast, and there are thunderstorms around a lot of the time. It’s not looking like a paddle; it’s more like a wet and bumpy mess.

The tide might offer some shelter, but with wind that onshore, I wouldn’t get too excited. There is a little bump in energy on the 13th, but the wind kills it. This is one of those times where the beach breaks might actually be more interesting for the kite crew than for us surfers. The paddle just isn't worth it.

Then, finally, on the morning of Saturday the 19th, we get a little window. The wind drops right out to glassy, and there’s a small 2ft swell from the east with a 9-second period. The energy is still low (89), but it’s clean. It’s tiny, but it’s honest. Another similar window pops up on the morning of Sunday the 20th with glassy conditions and a 2ft swell from the NNE. It's not going to be pumping, but if you’re desperate for a slide, these are your best bets. Keep your expectations in the basement.

There’s a bit more size forecast for the 22nd and 23rd, with waves around 4ft, but the period drops to a junky 6 seconds. That’s just a lot of moving water without any push. The 23rd does show a bit more energy (241), but it’s still rated as marginal. With that short period, it’s going to be lumpy and closed out at a reef like this. Not worth the paddle on a shortboard; you’d want a log and even then, it’s a gamble.

So, to sum it up: hold tight. Don't get skunked chasing the small stuff. The two glassy windows on the 19th and 20th are your only real chances to get a clean head dip, and even then, it's just a knee-slapper. It’s a quiet run for Indicas.

Information about the Indicas Surf forecast

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

Indicas is 11 km (7 miles) from the city of Marsh Harbour. If you plan a holiday in Great Abaco - Bahamas, look for hotels and other accommodation in Marsh Harbour. Marsh Harbour has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
