Alright, break out the tissues, because this is tough. Honestly, mate, for the next 16 days, we’re looking at a total write-off. There’s just nothing good on offer at Indicas.
The whole stretch from Saturday, July 4th, right through to Sunday, July 19th, is a long, grim run of cross-onshore, onshore, or just plain messy winds. The swell is hanging around a pathetic 2 ft to 6 ft, mostly from the ESE or E, with a short, weak period hovering around 7 to 9 seconds. The combined wave energy is weak to moderate at best, hitting a few hundred here and there (267 on the 9th, 284 on the 17th), but it’s just not translating into anything rideable. The wind is the killer – it’s never clean. It’s either choppy, lumpy, or just straight onshore trash.
Indicas (Indicas) is a reef break that’s normally inconsistent, and this forecast is a textbook example of why. It’s an advanced break, but with these conditions, even the most experienced surfer would be wasting their time. The water temperature is sitting at 86°F on the 4th, which is a touch warmer than normal, but that’s about the only thing going for it.
Don’t get too down, though. This area tends to be inconsistent, so a blank run like this isn’t unusual. Forecasts can change, but for now, the gear is staying in the shed. The afternoon of Friday, July 10th, gets a marginal score of 1, but that’s just a polite way of saying “still not worth it.” Honestly, the setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing with the consistent cross and onshore breeze.
Sorry, mates. It’s a hard pass.
Stay dry,
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.
