The Lowdown

Alright, let’s get real.

We are looking at a dry, quiet spell, but there’s a little pulse of swell early on that is the only real game in town. Don't get too excited about the back half of this forecast, because it's a long way off.

The first bit of real hope comes on the morning of Thursday, September 17th. It’s small, around 3ft, with the wind light and out of the east, leaving it glassy. That’s the good stuff, and it’s the build-up. By Thursday afternoon, we get a bit more size, up to 4ft from the NW, and with that WNW cross-offshore breeze, it’s going to be clean and lined up. This is the standout window. The wave energy is moderate at 206, which is the most we’ll see all week.

Friday the 18th still has some decent surf, with 3ft waves in the morning and a N offshore wind. But the swell is already fading, and by the afternoon it’s dropping to 2-3ft.

Saturday the 19th is a bit of a letdown. The morning has a few 2-3ft waves, but it’s not clean with a cross-offshore, and it's small. By the afternoon, the tide looks to be pulling the plug and it fades out.

Then, we hit the dead zone. From the 20th through the 27th, there’s nothing on the cards. We get a tease on the 22nd with a small 2ft morning, glassy, but it’s a quick pulse that doesn't last. After that, it’s flat.

Capo Mannu Point is the spot to be for the one and only day that's worth it. The forecast is for clean 4ft waves on Thursday afternoon, with the swell coming from the NW. That’s a solid point break wave, and with the wind offshore, it’s going to be pretty epic. The water’s warm, but it’s unusually warm for the season, a few degrees over normal which is a bit of a talking point, but it is what it is.

Until that next pulse of swell gets going, the board stays in the car. Just a long wait ahead.

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.
