The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. This is looking like a real slow spell for Indicas.
We’ve got a long stretch of pretty ordinary conditions ahead. The first decent window doesn’t show up until Saturday, the 1st of August. That’s a solid week away with nothing worth paddling out for. The waves are small, the energy is weak, and the winds are mostly messy for the next several days.
The standout window is Saturday morning, the 1st of August. Swell will be around 4 ft from the ESE, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy will be moderate (211), and with a moderate offshore wind from the W, it should be clean. That’s your best chance to get a few, though the swell is a bit short-period and the break is a reef setup that’s inconsistent. Crowds are possible here. Water temperature is about average for this time of year.
Before that, there’s nothing. From Saturday the 25th right through to the end of July, the surf is poor. Tiny waves, wind-affected, or just too weak. Sunday morning the 26th might offer a clean surface with cross-offshore winds, but the swell is only 3 ft and the energy is weak (98). It’s surfable, but nothing to get excited about.
After the 1st of August, it drops back down. The rest of the first week of August looks small and weak, with onshore winds creeping back in. The second week offers nothing promising either—just small, short-period waves with onshore flow. Not a great outlook for a paddle surfer.
If you’re into kite surfing, the beach setup here might be more interesting when the wind picks up, but for a surfboard, it’s a long wait for a very short window.

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.
