The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty comin' at ya. Let’s be straight with it – the outlook for Indicas over the next 16 days is a tough one. This is a reef break for advanced surfers only, known to be inconsistent, and it looks like it’s gonna live up to that reputation. We're staring down a long, dry spell with nothing good on the menu for a solid stretch.

Truth is, from the 27th of August all the way through to the 8th of September, the surf here is just flat-out poor. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, the swell is small and weak, and the energy is low. For example, on the 27th morning we’re looking at 2ft of ESE swell with a combined energy of only 97 – that’s weak, and it’s cross-on. The water here is about 87°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, but that doesn't save the waves.

There’s a serious gap with no quality surf at all. The little bump that shows up on September 1st afternoon (4ft, ESE, 11-second period) pushes the energy up to 376 – moderate, sure – but it’s still cross-on wind and the report says poor. No joy.

We finally get a glimmer of hope on the 9th of September. Wednesday morning and afternoon both show a marginal surf forecast with 2ft to 3ft swell shifting around to the NE with a long period of 12 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, but the wind is still light cross-onshore (236 to 245 energy). It’s only rated a 1 out of 10, so it’s more of a "maybe if you're desperate" situation. After that, it drops right back off.

So, what’s the best on offer? Honestly, nobody gets a standout here. The only semi-interesting session in the whole outlook is that Wednesday the 9th. The NE direction is what this break wants, and the long period (12s) will give it some shape, but the wind isn't ideal and the size is small. It’s more of a long-shot than a winner.

Right now, if the wind was offshore and we had some size, this reef could fire, but with this forecast, it's a flat spell. Conditions look more interesting for a kite than a paddle for most of this run. Keep an eye on the charts, but don't hold your breath for the next week and a half.

Rusty.

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.
