Table - best surf conditions forecast for Capo Marina over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch ahead for Capo Marina. Looking at the whole 16-day window, we’re in a proper flat spell for the most part. The first recommendation doesn’t roll around until Friday the 18th of July, and even then it’s barely a whisper. Before that, we’re looking at a solid week of tiny, weak waves and poor conditions, so don’t bother waxing up just yet.
The first real glimmer of hope shows up on the morning of Friday the 18th. Capo Marina, a reef break that’s inconsistent and for advanced surfers only, will see a modest SSW swell push in at about 2ft, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined swell energy is still weak at 41, so it’s not gonna blow your socks off. The real highlight here is the wind: a clean offshore breeze from the north is forecast, which will keep the surface glassy. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there. If you’re a local who knows the reef, you might pick off a couple of clean ones. Just be aware, crowds are possible at this spot.
That afternoon, the wind swings onshore from the SE, and the quality drops right off. Honestly, Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th are a write-off with tiny, messy waves. After that, the rest of the forecast into the second week stays flat and poor, with nothing worth paddling out for. The swell energy barely registers, and the winds are mostly cross-shore or onshore.
So, the standout is that Friday the 18th morning session. It’s the only window where the conditions align, but with such small swell and an inconsistent break, it’s a gamble. Keep your expectations low, and if it doesn’t happen, that’s just the way it goes here sometimes.
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.
