From September thru February the surf averages 4 to 5 feet reaching as high as 12 feet due to the consistent winter swells. During the summer months the surf is smaller and less predictable ranging anywhere from 2 to 3 feet. Surf during this time of year is usually determined by how active the hurricane season is.

As tropical storms pass well north of the island on their way to Florida, Barbados can receive some of the largest ground swells this time of the year while maintaining its beautiful climate. However Atlantic storm watching and precise timing is crucial to scoring this kind of summer Barbados surf.

So if you are an avid surfer looking to score some great surf in Barbados you should plan your vacation around the winter season.
