The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: the next week and a half is looking pretty flat and sad. We’re looking at a real dry spell. From now until the morning of the 10th of September, there’s basically nothing worth paddling out for. You’ll see a few tiny ripples, but nothing that’ll get your heart racing. That’s a solid nine-day stretch of quiet water.

The only real light at the end of the tunnel starts to show up on Thursday the 10th of September. That’s our one and only standout window.

The main spot to watch is Capo Marina. This is a tricky reef break—steep learning curve, so only for the experienced crew. It’s inconsistent, so you gotta be patient. The water is sitting at 82°, which is a massive 8° warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s a seriously weird warm spell, so don’t expect the usual chilly water.

On the morning of Thursday the 10th, we get a proper pulse. The swell is coming from the SSW at 5ft, with a period of 6 seconds. The energy is moderate (249). The wind is glassy out of the ENE. That’s a recipe for clean, workable conditions. The swell direction is right on the money for this setup.

The morning of Friday the 11th looks even better on paper, but it’s a bit bigger. The swell is 6ft from the SSW, period of 8 seconds, with a solid moderate to strong energy reading (356). It’s still clean with a light cross-offshore wind from the east. That’s pushing the limit for some, but for the advanced crew, it’s the pick of the window. The size and the direction match perfectly.

After that Friday morning session, it drops away again. The rest of the 16-day window fizzles out into tiny waves and onshore crud.

So, to sum it up: you’ve got a long wait, but the morning of the 10th and especially the morning of the 11th of September at Capo Marina are where it’s at. It’s not a blockbuster, but it’s the only real surf on the menu. Get out there if you can.

Stay salty,
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.
