The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the outlook for Capo Marina over the next 16 days is a tough one. There’s a long, dry spell with absolutely nothing on offer for the best part of two weeks. The first real surf recommendation doesn't pop up until the very end of the forecast period, so we’re looking at a big gap of no rideable waves.
The only faint glimmer of hope comes right at the tail end of the window. For the morning of Monday the 22nd of September, we might see a tiny pulse of energy. Capo Marina is an advanced reef break that’s inconsistent and rarely breaks, so any wave here is a special event. The swell is coming from the SSW, which is the optimum direction for this spot, but it’s tiny at 1 ft with a short period of 4 seconds, giving a combined energy of just 3. That’s weak. The wind is light and clean from the east, so the surface will be smooth. The water is a very unusual 81.3°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year.
Later that afternoon, the swell does bump up a touch to 2.6 ft from the SSW, with a period of 5 seconds and combined energy reaching 50. Still weak, but slightly better. However, the wind swings around to the SSE at 6 mph, turning it into a light cross-onshore, which will mess up those tiny waves. Honestly, this is a marginal call for any surfer, and even then, only for the most skilled locals who know the reef. For the rest of the 16 days, the forecast is bone dry, with poor surf conditions and no energy at all. It’s one of those stretches where the ocean just isn’t cooperating.
Stay patient, and check back in a few days. The forecasts can change, and it never stays this flat forever.

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