Alright surfers, Rusty here. We’ve got a real flat spell ahead for the Capo Marina area. Honestly, for the next week and a half, you’re better off leaving the board in the car or taking up swimming. The swell just isn’t there.

Looking at the whole 16-day window, it’s a tough one. For the first 9 days, from Wednesday the 8th through to Wednesday the 15th, the wave heights are barely a ripple. We’re talking knee-high at best, with a tiny 0.7ft to 1ft of swell from the south and southeast. The energy is weak, registering between 1 and 15 on the combined energy scale. There’s just nothing to work with. The water is warm though, 78°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, if you just want a float.

Things try to pick up a little on Thursday the 16th. The afternoon sees a bump to 2ft from the SSW, with a combined energy of 24 (moderate wave energy), but it’s coming with a light cross-onshore breeze that’ll make it a bit bumpy. Still not worth the paddle.

The only real chance of scoring a wave comes on Friday morning, July 17th. We get a push of 3ft SSW swell, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 83 (moderate wave energy). The wind turns light and cross-offshore from the east, cleaning up the faces. This is “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” It’s not a standout, but it’s the best we’ll see. The spot is Capo Marina, a reef break that’s for advanced surfers only, and it’s inconsistent. On a 3ft swell, it’ll be a slopey, soft wave, but clean. The swell direction is straight out of the SSW, which is the optimum direction for this spot, so it’ll be hitting it right. Crowds are possible here, and it will be the only game in town.

After that, it fades back into nothing. Saturday the 18th gives a tiny 2ft in the morning with offshore winds, but the energy is low (37). From Sunday the 19th all the way through to Thursday the 23rd, it’s back to flat or near-flat conditions, with swell heights of 0.7ft or less and energy readings dropping to single digits. There’s even a day, Wednesday the 22nd, where there is zero swell.

So, to be straight with you: the one and only session to even consider is Friday morning, July 17th. It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the only chance of a clean, surfable wave in the whole 16-day forecast. Don’t hold your breath for the rest.

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.
