The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up for Capo Marina. It’s a reef break, and for this entire 16-day window, we’ve got a tough run ahead.
We start with very little going on. Saturday the 25th is flat and messy with a tiny 0.3m of slop from the southeast and no real energy (combined energy of all swells directed here 1). The water is a balmy 82°, which is much warmer than normal for the time of year – feels like bath water.
Sunday the 26th has a little bump, but it’s still too small to get excited about, though the glassy conditions for the afternoon are a tease. The most hopeful window is actually Monday the 27th morning. We get a tiny 3ft from the SSW at a short 6-second period, with a combined energy of all swells directed here 69, and clean conditions under a light cross-offshore breeze from the NE. It’s not good, but it’s the best we get for a while. The waves are small and weak, but at least it’s clean. After that, it’s a long, grim stretch.
From Tuesday the 28th all the way through to Thursday the 6th of August, the forecast is dominated by flat spells or tiny, weak swells (under 3ft) with poor conditions. There’s a gap of over a week where nothing is worth paddling out for. On the morning of Thursday the 6th of August, we finally see a flush of energy – 4ft from the SSW, combined energy of all swells directed here 104, and glassy conditions. That’s the best size we get, but the consistency is a problem and it still won't be great.
For a spot that is exposed to a SSW swell, and which works best on a SSW direction, we finally get that on the morning of Monday the 27th. It’s small, but the direction lines up and the wind is clean. That Monday morning is the standout, but only because the bar is so low.
Honestly, unless you’re desperate, this whole period looks like it’s better for a beach day than a surf. I wouldn’t blame you for leaving the boards at home.
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.
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.
