Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s be real – the next couple of weeks are pretty flat for our area. There’s a big gap of no real surf coming up, so don’t get your hopes up too early.
We’re looking at Capo Marina first. This is a tricky, inconsistent reef that needs a solid southwest swell to work. From July 5th all the way through to about the 16th, there is almost nothing. We’re talking tiny waves of 0.7ft to 0.7ft from the SSW. The combined swell energy is absolutely bottomed out, between 1 and 3 (weak energy). You might see some clean, glassy mornings on the 9th and 10th, but with that little swell, you’re just staring at a flat ocean. There’s a lot of dead days with no swell at all.
That quiet run goes straight through the second week. Mornings on the 15th, 16th, and 17th of July are glassy, but there’s nothing to ride. It’s a long dry spell.
Now, here is the one bright spot in the whole forecast. On Saturday, July 18th, we finally get a pulse. The morning shows glassy conditions with a 2ft swell from the SW, period of 5 seconds. The combined swell energy hits 14 (moderate energy). It’s small, but for this inconsistent spot, that’s the peak. The wind is glassy, so it’ll be clean. The afternoon of the 18th also stays glassy with a 1ft SSW swell, energy at 10. If you want to surf, that’s your window.
After that, the 19th and 20th drop right back into weak, small waves with onshore breezes, so don’t expect much. For a break that's known for being inconsistent and rarely waves, this kind of quiet stretch is more normal here. The water temp is about average for this time of year. If you’re keen, the 18th of July is the one to keep an eye on, but it’s a long way off. For now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
