Cap Sim surf guide

Cap Sim is a remote surf spot where experienced surfers can find some good waves. It's not the easiest place to get to, but if you're up for an adventure, it can be worth the effort. The area has no facilities, so be prepared to rough it a bit. Expect a bumpy, off-road drive followed by a long walk to reach the surf points. Keep your wits about you, as localism can be an issue, and there are reports of theft in the area.

This spot generally works best with a north-west swell direction and can also handle south-west and north swells. The waves break over uneven reef and sand, creating a mix of point breaks that can deliver decent rides. You can expect the swell to be good when it gets to around 2 feet (0.6 meters), and mid-tide is often the sweet spot for catching the best waves here. The preferred wind direction is east, making for clean conditions on your ride. It's mainly suited for intermediate surfers who are looking to challenge themselves.

When you're at Cap Sim, be ready for varied surf conditions thanks to the different sections of the break. It's a spot that attracts a certain crowd, so you might want to keep an eye out for other surfers around. This place can be a little bit of a mixed bag, so go in with realistic expectations and enjoy the unique character of the waves.

Welcome! If you’re new to surf forecasting, check out this quick guide.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.
