The Lowdown
Alright, let me give you the same read in feet.
First up, we’re staring at a long dry spell. From Thursday the 30th of July all the way to the 10th of August, the waves are flat or ankle-high at best. Wave energy is squat at 0–1. You’d be better off cleaning your board. There’s a little blip on the 5th and 6th with tiny swells (energy around 50–79), but it’s still pretty average. Water temp is about normal for this time of year, nothing strange.
The real action hovers around Tuesday the 11th of August. Morning’s the call – clean 6ft NW swell with a 7-second period, light cross-offshore breeze out of the NW, and energy climbing to a moderate 278. The NW swell is a decent match for this reef’s sweet spot (SW), so the point should start to peel. At 6ft, it’s solid for most surfers, but that reef means you keep your wits about you.
By Tuesday afternoon on the 11th, the swell jumps to 8ft from the NW with a 9-second period, and the energy hits 1017 – that’s strong. But the wind picks up to 25 km/h, still cross-offshore. This is expert-only territory. Crowds are a possibility here, and with a proper swell hitting, expect some company if you’re keen.
Wednesday the 12th morning drops back to 4ft NW, cleaner winds, but energy drops to 136 – just ordinary again.
The standout is Tuesday the 11th of August, morning. The bigger afternoon pulse is for the gunners. The rest of the 16 days is mostly flat or weak, with a big gap at the start. After the 12th, it fades fast.
Hang tight.
Rusty.

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.

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.
