The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for this stretch of coast.
To be straight with you, the next 16 days are looking pretty grim around here. This is one of those stretches where the surf just doesn't show up. The first quality wave worth mentioning is a long way off, and even then it's nothing to write home about. We're looking at a massive gap of nothing but flatness and tiny, bumpy slop until the end of the second week.
The water is sitting at a balmy 82°, which is a far cry from the norm – over 9 degrees warmer than average for this time of year. That's a real standout, but it's not going to help the waves.
The only break on the radar is Capo Marina, a reef setup that's not known for being consistent. Looking at the whole period, the best chance for a paddle is on Saturday, September 12th, in the morning. We'll get a clean 3 ft swell from the SSW with a period of 7 seconds, and the wind will be light offshore from the north. The energy is weak (56), so don't expect much push, but it'll be the most rideable we see all period. It's small and clean, but the break is inconsistent, so you'll be waiting. When it does come, expect a small crowd.
For the rest of the run, it's a write-off. Everything else is below 2 ft, with short, weak periods and mostly cross-shore or onshore winds. There's a few glassy moments on the 20th and 21st, but the swell is a whisper at 1 ft. It's not surfable.
Honestly, for the next two weeks, this spot is a better bet for a swim than a surf. The forecasts might change, but right now, it's a tough outlook.
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.
