Table - best surf conditions forecast for Capo Marina over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s ahead for the 16-day window.
Well, I’ve got to be straight with you – this is a grim one. The whole 16-day forecast is a flat spell. There’s not a single moment where the surf gets good enough to get a recommendation. We’re looking at a solid blank run from now until the end of the window on the 25th of July. The waves are tiny, the energy is weak, and the conditions just aren’t lining up for anything worth paddling out for.
The only spot we’ve got to look at is Capo Marina, a reef break for advanced surfers only. It’s inconsistent and can get crowded sometimes. The swell direction it likes is from the SSW, but it’s just not getting any decent push. For the first few days, the swell is barely a ripple – 0.7ft to 1ft from the SSE or SSW, with periods between 4 and 6 seconds. The combined wave energy is very weak, often in the single digits (2, 4, 9). The wind is light and offshore or glassy at times on the mornings, which would be perfect for clean surf, but there’s just no swell to work with.
As we move into the second week, things don’t improve. Around the 20th of July, we see a tiny bump – a 3ft swell from the SW with a 7-second period. That’s the biggest of the whole outlook, but the energy is still only moderate (77). For a break that needs a decent SSW groundswell to work, this is a non-event. The wind is cross-offshore, so the surface would be clean, but the waves are too small and weak for a proper session. The 21st of July shows a similar story – 1ft, 8-second period, with light offshore winds, but again, it’s just not enough.
It’s a tough outlook. The water temp is about average for the time of year, but that’s about the only consolation. With such small, weak swell and no real punch, it’s a case of wait for the next weather system. Don’t hold your breath.

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.
Capo Marina is 4 km (2 miles) from Genova. If you plan a holiday in West Coast of Italy, look for hotels and other accommodation in Genova. Genova has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
