The Lowdown

Alright, let’s get this out there. I’m looking at the next couple of weeks, and I gotta be straight with you: it’s a rough stretch. We’ve got a lot of small, weak, and messy days ahead. The swell is just barely there, and the wind is gonna be a constant headache for a while.

The water is sitting at a warm 84°, which is a good six and a half degrees warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s a serious anomaly, so if you’re getting in, it’s going to feel like a bath.

The first real chance of anything comes on the morning of the 18th. We’ve got a clean, cross-offshore wind and a small 2ft swell from the southwest. The energy is still weak, with a combined reading of 46, but it’s the best we’re going to see in this whole window. It’s surfable, but it’s not going to blow anyone’s mind. That afternoon, the wind swings onshore and it gets messy again.

Before that, it’s a write-off. From the 5th through the 17th, we’re looking at a long, drawn-out stretch of nothing. The swell is mostly under 1ft, with periods that are either too short or just junk. The wind is all over the place, but mostly onshore or cross-onshore, so it’s a whole lot of flat, bumpy ocean.

There’s a small bump on the 16th, but it’s a southerly swell with a cross-onshore breeze that picks up to 12 mph in the afternoon, making it a choppy mess. That’s not worth your time.

The break itself, Capo Marina, is a tricky reef setup for advanced surfers only. It’s inconsistent, so you need to be patient even on a good day. With the swell this small, it’s not really showing its cards at all.

The morning of the 18th is the only thing to even think about. It’s clean, glassy, and the offshore wind is light. But honestly, with 2ft of southwest swell, it’s a longboard or a fish kinda day. Don't be expecting any barrels.

After that, we’re back to the same story. The 19th has a bit of bump, but the wind is on it. The 20th has a strong cross-offshore wind at 16 mph, but the swell is nearly gone. It’s not looking good.

Bottom line: don’t get your hopes up. Save your energy, tune your boards, and maybe go for a paddle on the 18th morning if you’re desperate. It’s a flat spell, and we just have to wait it out.

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.
