The Lowdown
Alright, buddy, Rusty here. Let me break down the next couple of weeks for you.
I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this is a tough one. The only spot in the picture is Capo Marina, a reef break that's set up for a south-southwest swell. But the problem is, for almost the entire 16-day stretch, we've got a big fat zero. We’re looking at a long, dry spell. From right now all the way through until the morning of August 10th, it’s flat. A whole week of nothing. The water temp is sitting at 28°, which is a massive 3° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a real outlier, almost like bathwater.
The first glimpse of hope shows up on the morning of Monday, August 10th. We’ve got a tiny little pulse of swell from the SSW at 3ft, with a period of 6 seconds, and a weak combined energy of just 53. The wind is blowing from the east-northeast at 6 mph, which is a clean cross-offshore breeze. It’s surfable, but it’s ordinary. Honestly, for a reef break, that short period isn't going to do it any favors – the waves won't have much push.
After that little blip, it’s back to the doldrums. The forecast is dead flat again from August 11th all the way through to the end of the window on the 16th. There’s a tiny, almost laughable bump on the morning of the 15th – a 0.3ft from the west with an 8-second period and energy of 1 – but that’s nothing you’d even bother with.
So, the standout? There’s only one day with any surf at all, and that’s the morning of the 10th of August. Capo Marina is the spot. With a 3ft SSW swell and a clean cross-offshore breeze, it’s the only window. It’s an inconsistent spot, so don’t expect a wave every minute. For a reef break, the short period means the waves won’t have much shape, but it’s all we’ve got. The crowds are listed as "sometimes" there, so you might have a few others with the same idea.
For the rest of the forecast, it’s a complete blank. With only one break on the radar and it being inconsistent, this kind of dead run isn’t unusual for the area. Keep an eye on it, because forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get excited about.
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.

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.
