The Lowdown

Alright, let’s get into it. Rusty here.

First up, we’ve got a long stretch of near nothing. The first real chance of a wave at Capo Marina doesn’t come until Sunday the 26th of July, and even then it’s nothing to write home about. The water is sitting at a very unusual 82°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year.

The spot is an advanced reef break rated as inconsistent, but it’s exposed to the south-southwest and needs a clean offshore wind from the north-northeast to get working. For most of the next week and a half, the swell is tiny, the energy is weak, and the wind is either onshore or cross-off from the wrong angles. There’s a big gap from the 21st through the 25th where the combined energy reads 0, so don’t bother paddling out.

The only standout in the entire 16-day window is Sunday the 26th of July. The morning brings a clean 4ft south swell with a 6-second period and a combined energy of 173 (moderate). The wind is light offshore from the north-northeast, which is exactly what you want for this reef. The waves will be small and inconsistent, but it’s the best you’ll get. The afternoon sees the swell drop to 2ft from the southwest with a longer 8-second period, and glassy conditions from the north-northwest. It’s still surfable, but the energy drops to 71. Crowds are sometimes an issue here, so if you’re out there, expect a few locals.

For the rest of the period, it’s flat or close to it. The 27th has a strong north wind of 25 km/h, making it messy and only 1ft. After that, there’s another gap of flat days from the 28th of July through to the 1st of August, with only tiny 0.7ft dribble on the 1st. This is a reef that rarely breaks, so a blank run is more normal for the area.

If you’re a kite surfer, the 27th might be more interesting with that 25 km/h north wind and 1ft chop, but for paddling, it’s a no-go.

All in all, save your energy for Sunday the 26th of July. It’s a small window, but it’s the only one.

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.
