The Lowdown

Alright, let's talk turkey. Rusty here, and I’ve got the full picture for Capo Marina, and I'm not gonna sugarcoat it – it’s flat, and it's gonna stay flat for a while. We've got a 16-day stretch ahead, and for the first few days, there is absolutely nothing to get excited about. From the 27th through the end of the month, the surf is barely a ripple. It's all under 1ft, with weak energy readings below 10. Not even worth a look.

There is one short pulse of life on Saturday the 29th. The swell bumps up to about 4ft from the southwest, and the energy reading gets to a moderate 169. The morning wind is light and clean, so if you’re really jonesing for a wave, that’s your window. But it’s nothing special, just ordinary surf in average conditions. After that, it all just turns off again. We're looking at a massive dry spell from the 31st all the way through to the 10th of September. I'm talking days and days of nothing. A total blank run.

Then, out of nowhere, Friday the 11th of September shows a pulse of energy. We see a 4ft southwest swell push the combined energy up to 146, which is something. However, the wind is howling onshore from the south at 20 km/h with rain on the forecast. The surf is going to be a messy, blown-out mess. The morning looks like a complete write-off, and the afternoon calms a touch, but it's still cross-onshore. It’s a day for the kite surfers, not the paddle surfers, to be honest.

So, the pick of the litter is that Saturday, the 29th. Get out early before the wind ruins it. The water is a balmy 81°F, which is over five degrees warmer than normal for this time of year – that's seriously unusual, so you’ll be surfing in boardies. And just remember, this break is inconsistent, so this kind of long, flat stretch is pretty much par for the course. The long-range stuff on the 11th looks promising but less certain. Keep your eyes on the charts, and I'll keep you posted.

Rusty out.

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.
