The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it.

Honestly, mate, it's a bit of a tough stretch ahead for this spot. We're looking at a solid 16-day window, but the surf is going to be a real struggle for most of it. The swell is tiny and the wind is just not playing ball. It's not a total write-off, but you'll have to be patient.

Let's start with what's on offer. The first real chance to get wet is from Sunday the 6th of September. We’ve got a small, weak swell rolling in from the ESE at 2ft, with a period of 9 seconds. The wind is a cross-off from the WNW, which is a plus, but the wave energy is really low, coming in at just 66. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 86.2°. It’s clean, but it’s poor surf. You’ll be scratching for any kind of ride.

Moving into Monday the 7th, the swell drops even more, down to 1.5ft to 2ft. The wind switches around, but it's still light. The energy is down in the 40s and 50s. It's just not doing anything.

Tuesday the 8th is more of the same – tiny, weak swell, and the wind goes cross-on, bringing in a few ripples. Not great.

Then from Wednesday the 9th through to Sunday the 14th, we see a small bump in swell. The heights get up to 3ft, and the energy creeps into the low hundreds, like 193 on the 9th. But here's the problem: the wind is either onshore or cross-onshore, from the E or SE. For a reef break like Indicas, this is just not going to produce anything clean. It's going to be choppy and messy. The best of this period is probably Wednesday the 9th, but with a 12 mph onshore wind, it's a pass.

The rest of the window from the 15th onwards is a real drag. The swell drops back down to 1.5ft to 2.5ft, and the wind stays strong and messy, with the odd fresh breeze hitting 19 mph. The energy is pitiful, often below 80. The last few days of the forecast are just a write-off.

So, the real standout... if you had to pick one, it's a tough call. There’s nothing that screams "go now." The closest we get to a decent window is the period around the 9th to the 13th when the swell is at its biggest, but the wind is just too poor. It's a case of waiting for a lucky break in the wind that the forecast isn't showing. For now, the board stays in the car.

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.
