The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let me tell you how things are looking for your local stretch, Capo Marina.
To be honest, it's a pretty flat and quiet run over the next couple of weeks. The swell just isn't showing up. We've got a long dry spell ahead with barely a ripple to get excited about. The only real whisper of something happening comes right at the very end.
Looking at the water right now, it’s sitting at a balmy 82°F which is much warmer than usual for the time of year.
We kick off with a lot of nothing. From Sunday the 2nd right through to Friday the 7th of August, we’re looking at tiny waves, if any. The combined swell energy is almost non-existent, mostly single-digit values, with the best being a weak 23 on the Sunday afternoon. That's not surf, that's a lake.
Saturday the 8th of August is the first day we see something, but it's hardly a standout. The morning brings a little 2ft swell from the SW with some cross-off wind, giving us a combined energy of 45. It's surfable, but very ordinary. The wind picks up in the afternoon and kills it.
Sunday the 9th of August morning is the best we have on offer for the entire forecast. It’s still small, with a 3ft swell from the SSW, but we get clean conditions with a light offshore wind from the NE. The combined energy hits 62, which is still very weak but at least it’s something. This is as good as it gets. Don't expect much power.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums. From Monday the 10th right through to Monday the 17th of August, we’re looking at mostly flat, choppy, or onshore conditions. There are a few glassy moments here and there, like the afternoon of Saturday the 15th, but with only 1ft of swell and 14 combined energy, you’ll be doing more floating than surfing.
Honestly, for this stretch, a long blank run like this isn't totally unexpected. It’s just one of those periods where the ocean takes a nap. Keep your eye on the forecasts, because it can’t stay this quiet forever.
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.
