The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – we’ve got a long stretch ahead with barely a wave worth paddling for. The whole 16-day window is a flat spell for Capo Marina, with no real surf on the table until maybe the very tail end, and even that’s tiny.
We’re looking at a big gap from now through most of the forecast. There’s simply no swell to speak of. The water’s sitting at a very unusual 83°, which is 4° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s proper tropical bathwater. But you’ll be floating on it, not surfing, because the energy is just not there.
For the first week and beyond, every day is marked as poor surf conditions. The combined swell energy is a flat zero (0) for days on end. We see a few pulses of tiny, gutless swell from the SW and SSW, but they’re barely registering. On the morning of the 19th of August, there’s a 1ft SSW swell with a period of only 5 seconds – that’s pure windswell, weak and with no push. The energy reading is just 5 (weak). The winds are clean and offshore (NNE) at 9 mph, which would be great if there was any swell to hold up, but on a flat reef like this, it’s a no-go.
Even the end of the run, around the 22nd of August, gives us a 1ft SE swell with 4-second period and energy at 4 (weak). It’s a complete non-event. The only tiny highlight might be the morning of the 23rd with glassy conditions and a 0.3ft SW swell at 7 seconds – but that’s barely a ripple. This break is inconsistent at the best of times, and this run is a classic example of that. For the entire 16 days, there’s nothing a surfer would want to get in the water for.
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.
