The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. I won’t sugarcoat it; the next couple of weeks at Capo Marina are looking as flat as a pancake. We’re in for a long, dry spell. From now until about the 16th, there’s just nothing doing. We’re talking a full week to ten days of either flat calm or waves you could step over. The swell energy is basically zero, and the few tiny bumps we see are just short-period junk, not a real swell.
The water is warm, though, at 83°, which is a solid 7° above normal for this time of year. That’s a real oddity, so if you’re just after a swim, it’ll be lovely.
The first, and I mean *first*, hint of a wave shows up on the morning of Sunday the 16th. We might see a knee-high ripple, but it’s nothing to get excited about. The wind is light and clean, so it won’t be messy, but there’s just no push. This spot is fickle at the best of times, and this is looking like one of its more stubborn stretches. It's a true "rarely breaks" kind of vibe.
Now, if you’re holding onto any hope, the morning of Tuesday the 18th is the only time that might offer a glimmer. The swell picks up to about 2 feet from the SW, with a bit more energy behind it. It’s still small, but it’s the best we’re going to see in the whole window. With light winds, you might snag a couple of soft, crumbly waves on a longboard. It’s not going to be a day you tell your grandkids about, but it’s something.
The rest of the second week is the same old story: tiny, weak, and uninviting. A few more days of ankle-biters, with the wind often swinging onshore in the afternoons. It’s going to be a frustrating stretch. The direction is right, but the size and power just aren't there. The water is warm, the skies are clear, but the ocean is just taking a nap. If you're desperate, grab the biggest board you have and maybe a floatie, because that's about all this is good for.
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.
