G’day, Rusty here. I’ve got the outlook for Indicas. Let’s be straight up – it’s a tough stretch ahead. We’re looking at a 16-day window starting from Sunday, 5 July, and honestly, for the first week and a half, you’re better off staying on the beach.

Right from Sunday afternoon, conditions are poor. Southerly winds are cross or cross-onshore at 9-12 mph, with swell around 2 ft to 3 ft from the ESE at a short period of 8 seconds. Combined wave energy is weak, barely reaching 58 (weak energy on the 5th). This pattern just keeps rolling through Monday, Tuesday, and into the next week. Through Wednesday (8 July) morning, swell bumps up to 4 ft from the ESE, with moderate wave energy hitting 197, but with a cross-onshore wind at 12 mph, it’s choppy and messy – poor surf conditions all the way.

We don’t see a single day with decent quality until Monday, 13 July. That’s when things shift slightly. On Monday morning, the wind swings around to a light SSW cross-offshore at 6 mph, cleaning things up. The swell is small – 3 ft from ESE at 8 seconds – and wave energy is weak at 90. The forecast says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” and the score is low. It’s not a standout, just the least terrible option in a long run of bad days. You could paddle out but don’t expect much.

Tuesday, 14 July, sees cleaner conditions again with a stronger SW cross-offshore at 16 mph, but the swell drops to 2 ft from ESE and then barely 2 ft from NNE with a period of 10 seconds. By Tuesday afternoon, wave energy ticks up to 128 (moderate), but the height is tiny. The wind is now strong, and the setup is more interesting for a kite session than a paddle.

From Wednesday, 15 July, through to Monday, 20 July, it’s back to poor surf. Winds stay moderate to fresh from the south or southeast, cross or cross-onshore, with swell stuck around 2 ft to 3 ft and periods of 7-8 seconds. Wave energy drops into the weak range again (51-88). The last day, Monday afternoon, 20 July, still shows poor conditions.

So here’s the honest truth: there is no true standout in this 16-day window. The only spot worth even mentioning is Indicas itself – a reef break for advanced surfers, but it’s inconsistent and rarely breaks well. When it does, it prefers a NE swell direction, and we’re getting ESE to SE swells, which are not ideal. Water temperature on the first day is 86°F, which is about a touch warmer than normal for the time of year – a degree and a third above average, so it’s a bit bath-like but nothing crazy.

This blank run is normal for the area – forecasts can change, but right now, don’t get your hopes up.

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.
