Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at the local situation. I gotta be straight with you – it's a quiet spell for Capo Marina. The forecast covers the next 16 days, but there's a long gap with no real surf on offer. We're looking at a run of tiny, pretty much non-existent waves from the start until at least the 8th of July.
Capo Marina is a reef setup, and it's inconsistent at the best of times, so this sort of blank run is pretty normal for here. The water is sitting at a toasty 80°, which is a whopping 7° warmer than usual for this time of year – that's very unusual and a real treat if you're getting in for a paddle, even if there's nothing to ride.
From Thursday the 2nd of July right through to Wednesday the 8th, we're lucky if we see a ripple. The combined energy is almost non-existent, with values sitting between 0 and 4 (weak energy). You'll see the odd 0.3ft swell showing up, but with periods around 4 to 9 seconds, there's no power behind it. The wind does offer some clear, light and glassy moments, especially on the Saturday afternoon and Tuesday morning, but with no swell to work with, it's a lake.
Things don't really improve much after that. The 9th of July brings a hint of a 0.7ft SSW groundswell with a 4-second period, but the combined energy is a measly 2 (weak). The conditions are clean in the morning with a light easterly cross-offshore breeze, but it's just not enough to surf.
The rest of the period through to Friday the 17th of July is much the same story. Tiny 0.3ft bumps at best, with only a few clean windows. The NNE offshore wind on the 12th of July and the 16th of July looks tidy, but without any swell height, it's a cruiser day, not a surfer's day.
So, the honest truth? There are no standout days here. The best you could hope for is a very small, clean day like Saturday the 4th of July afternoon where the wind goes glassy and the water is flat. It's a tough call, but forecasts can always change, so keep an eye on it. For now, might be worth polishing the longboard and enjoying the warm water.
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.
