Capoon's Bay surf guide

Capoon's Bay, also known as Little Apple Bay, is a surf spot located on the north shore of Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. This area is known for its laid-back vibe and offers a nice range of surfing options. The wave here breaks over reef, making it a popular choice for surfers looking for a bit of action without venturing too far from the beach. The bay can get a little crowded, especially when the conditions are right, so be prepared to share the space with fellow surfers.

The surf at Capoon's Bay is primarily a user-friendly A-frame reef break that can handle swells from 2ft (about 0.6 meters) all the way up to larger sizes. It's best when the swell comes from the North, but it also works with Northwest and Northeast swells. The wave offers both lefts and rights, with the lefts sometimes running nicely when the Northwest goes bigger. However, there’s also a softer right on the east side of the main peak, which is often used by stand-up paddleboarders and referred to as Gay Rights. The conditions are pretty forgiving, making it a great spot for beginners, especially when the tide is low, mid, or high, and the wind is coming from the Southeast.

Keep in mind that the area features some coral which can be a little sharp, so watch your step on the way in. Also, the atmosphere at Capoon's Bay can change quickly, so it's always good to check the surf forecast before heading out. While it’s not the most consistent spot, when it's on, it can offer enjoyable waves for all skill levels.

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.

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"
