The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what’s coming up for Capo Marina.
I’ve got to be straight with you — the next week and a half is pretty flat and frustrating. There are small, weak pulses running through, but nothing that’s really going to get you excited. The water is sitting at a very warm 82°, which is *much warmer* than usual for this time of year. That's a big anomaly. It’s almost tropical out there.
We start off on the 16th with glassy conditions on Thursday morning, but with a tiny 0.7ft SSW swell and only 4 seconds of period, the combined swell energy is barely a whisper at just (2). It’s just not doing anything. That trend of tiny, weak, poor-quality surf carries right through the rest of July.
There's a small shift on the morning of Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th. It’s still not big, but the energy builds a little. On Monday morning we get a 2ft SSE swell with a period of 7 seconds and some light offshore wind from the NNE. The combined energy climbs to a moderate (61). It’s surfable, but very ordinary. Then Tuesday morning sees a similar situation: 3ft from the SSW at 7 seconds, with a cross-offshore wind, and combined energy at (96). Conditions are clean, but the swell is just lacking any punch.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, the Tuesday morning session on the 28th is the best on offer. The swell is still small at around 3ft, but the clean conditions and the moderate energy make it the only real standout in a long, quiet stretch. For the rest of this period, the setup looks more interesting for a kite than a surfboard.
Rusty.

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.
