The Lowdown

Alright folks, it’s Rusty here, and I’ve got to be straight with you for this one. This forecast is a real mixed bag, and honestly, for the next week and a half, we’re looking at a whole lot of nothing. The swell window is just not working for us, and the few little bumps that show up are barely enough to get excited about. There’s a long dry spell on the cards, but stick with me, because the tail end of the window might just throw us a bone.

The first real chance to even think about paddling out isn’t until Saturday, July 26th. That morning, Capo Marina is showing a little pulse of 4ft swell from the SSW, with a period of 6 seconds. The energy is moderate, coming in at 194, and with a glassy wind, it’ll be clean. The water is a toasty 82°, which is a solid 8° warmer than normal, so it’s very unusual for this time of year. The thing is, this is an inconsistent reef break, and with that short period, it’s not going to have much shape. It’s a small window of clean, small waves, but it’s not a standout.

Before that, from now right through to July 25th, we’ve got a brutal gap. Day after day of tiny, weak swells with poor conditions. The combined energy rarely gets above 50, and most days it’s a flat zero. It’s just not worth the drive.

The only real standout in this whole 16-day window pops up on Friday, July 31st. The morning session at Capo Marina is looking promising. The swell is 4ft from the SW, with a period of 7 seconds, and the energy is moderate at 116. The wind is offshore from the NNE, which is a major positive – it’ll be clean. The break is a bit inconsistent, and with the swell just over 3ft, it’s still manageable for most, but keep in mind, it’s an advanced reef break. This is the best on offer, but it’s a long way off, so don’t bank on it just yet.

The rest of the forecast is a write-off. Saturday, August 1st has a tiny 2ft, but the wind goes onshore in the afternoon, so it’s nothing special.

So, there you have it. A whole lot of patience needed, with a couple of fleeting moments of hope. The water is warm, but the waves are not. Keep an eye on that last Friday of July, but don’t hold your breath.

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.
