The Lowdown

Alright, I’ll level with you. Straight up: there’s nothing worth paddling out for over the next couple weeks at Indicas (reef). The whole 16-day window is a write-off for quality surf. I’ve looked at every session from September 14 right through to September 29, and honestly, it’s a grim run.

Right from the get-go, Monday the 14th is offering a tiny 2 ft swell from the ESE with a short, weak 8-second period and the combined energy is piddling at just 78. The water’s sitting at 86°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – nice for a dip, but that’s about all it’s good for. The wind is light cross-onshore in the morning, so the surface is messy. The arvo goes glassy, but the swell is still tiny and ordinary – surfable but nothing you’d drive for.

From Tuesday the 15th through to the end of the month, it’s the same sad story. Swell heights barely scrape 3 ft most days, the period is mostly 6 to 8 seconds – meaning weak, short-period windswell – and the combined energy only claws its way into triple digits a handful of times, but never with any conviction. The wind is almost always cross-onshore or onshore, and the forecast keeps calling it “poor surf conditions” day after day. There’s nothing that even sniffs at a standout.

Even toward the back half, around September 25 and 26, where the energy jumps to 256 and 389, the swell direction from the N or NE doesn’t suit Indicas at all – it’s looking for NE swell, and the period is short. Plus the wind stays cross or cross-onshore, keeping it choppy and messy. This is a reef setup, but the conditions are so sub-par that it only looks interesting for kite surfing, not for a paddle.

Because this spot is already inconsistent, a blank run like this isn’t totally unexpected, but it’s a bummer. Forecasts change, and it won’t stay poor forever, but for now, there is no good surf on offer here.

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.
