The Lowdown

Alright, this is a tough one. I've looked over the numbers for Indicas, and to be honest, this is a long stretch of nothing much to get excited about. It’s a reef break that takes a NE swell to really light up, and we’re staring down a solid run of weak, short-period ESE windswell with cross-onshore winds just killing any chance of quality. The combined swell energy is mostly sitting in the moderate range (values like 110 to 181), but it’s just not the right direction or period to do anything special at this spot.

The water’s a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, sitting at 87°, but that’s about the only thing that’s not a letdown.

From July 20th right through to the morning of July 30th, it’s all “poor surf conditions” with that onshore chop. Honestly, it looks more like a waste of time than a surf.

The first faint glimmer shows up on Friday July 31st. The morning is still only marginal, with a 4ft swell from ESE at 9 seconds and combined energy hitting 232 (moderate, but building). The wind swings light and glassy in the afternoon from the east at just 3 mph. That’s the only real window in the whole 16 days. Expect clean, glassy conditions with 4ft, ESE swell. For a spot that’s inconsistent at the best of times, this is a rare chance. Crowds are sometimes an issue, so with conditions that clean, you won’t be alone.

After that, we’re back into ordinary or poor conditions through to August 4th. A few clean windows with light offshore breezes from the SSW and SW on August 2nd, but the swell is still weak and short period (4ft to 4ft, 8 seconds, energy in the 140s-160s). It’s surfable, but no standout.

Bottom line: if you’re desperate, the glassy window on the afternoon of Friday July 31st is the only one worth paddling out for. Otherwise, this stretch is a write-off.

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.
