The Lowdown
Righto, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for Capo Mannu Point. It's a classic reef setup, advanced territory, and it gets pretty exposed to the open ocean, so it needs a decent SW groundswell to fire. Water temps are sittin' about average for this time of year.
We've got a bit of a tease to kick things off, then a long, dry spell. The only real action is right at the very start. Monday morning, the 27th of July, is your window. It's clean, with a slight NNE breeze keeping things off the face. You'll see a 1.3m swell pushing in with a short period of 8 seconds (that's about 4ft and 8 seconds). The combined energy is moderate at 213, so there's some push there. It's not the longest period or the biggest, but with that offshore wind and the reef doing its thing, it's the standout of the 16-day run. Expect good surf conditions.
The afternoon of the 27th sees the swell bump up to 1.6m (about 5ft), but the wind swings NW and howls at 25 km/h (about 16 mph), blowin' cross-offshore. That makes it messy, and the waves are much harder to read. Not the best.
After that, it all fades fast. Tuesday the 28th is small and ordinary. Wednesday the 29th through to Friday the 31st of July? Flat, or near enough. We're talking a solid stretch of nothin' for the rest of July. The whole first week of August looks cooked too – flat, glassy mornings and that afternoon cross-offshore NW wind. There's a tiny ripple here and there, but nothin' that a surfer would paddle for. That blank run goes right through to the 11th of August.
So, the only real call is that Monday morning, 27th of July. Get out there early, enjoy the clean lines on the reef. It's a short-lived pulse, so make the most of it. After that, save the wax for another week. The long-range is all promise and no show, and that's life for this spot sometimes. Expect some company out there, as it can get crowded when it's on.

Information about the Capo Mannu Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Capo Mannu Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Capo Mannu Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Capo Mannu Point 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 (Capo Mannu Point) 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 Capo Mannu Point 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.
