The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a proper look at what’s shaping up in our little corner of the coast.
To be straight with you, this is a grim stretch ahead. We’re looking at a 16-day window that’s pretty much flat for the majority of the time. The only real pulse of energy comes through late on Monday the 27th of July, and even that is nothing to write home about.
The first real whisper of swell shows up on Monday morning, July 27th. We’re talking about clean conditions early with a light ENE breeze, but the swell is tiny at 3 ft from the SW, with a period of just 6 seconds. The combined energy is weak (76). It’s surfable, but only just. By the afternoon, the wind swings SW and it gets a bit bumpy, so don’t expect much.
There’s a very small, slightly better window on Sunday morning, August 9th, over a week away. That’s right, we’ve got a huge gap of nearly two weeks with almost nothing. On the 9th, we see a 2 ft swell from the SSW with a period of 5 seconds and a light N wind, which keeps things clean. The combined energy is still very weak (20). It’s not worth planning a trip around, but it’s the best we’ve got after the 27th.
The real kicker is the water temperature. It’s sitting at 83°F, which is a massive 7°F warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s very unusual, and it’s about the only notable thing in the forecast.
Capo Marina is a tricky reef break, only for advanced surfers, and it’s already inconsistent. With this forecast, it’s barely going to show a ripple. The tiny swells we do get are mostly too short-period and weak to do anything with. The best chance for a wave is on Monday morning, July 27th, with the 3 ft SW swell and clean conditions, but it’s still a struggle. The rest of the time, it’s flat, and the wind is all over the place.
To be honest, with the swell this small and the quality this poor, this setup looks more interesting for a flat day paddle than a surf session. There’s nothing here to get excited about.
Stay patient, and check back in a week. The forecasts can change.
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.
