The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the 16-day window at Capo Marina.
Honestly, it's a bit of a tough stretch. For the first ten days, there's just nothing to get excited about. We're looking at a long, dry gap with hardly any swell to speak of, and what little shows up is tiny and weak. The waiting game is definitely on.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn't arrive until Monday, the 10th of August. The water is sitting at a very warm 82°, which is a lot warmer than what we'd normally expect for this time of year. Early that morning, a new pulse of swell fills in, with waves around 4ft coming from the SSW. The combined energy of all swells directed here is moderate (157). The real kicker is the wind – it's a light offshore from the NNE at just 3 mph, leaving the surface glassy. This is where you want to be. It's a reef break, so it's one for the advanced crew, and it can be inconsistent, so patience is a virtue. The offshore wind will make it clean, but the swell direction (SSW) isn't the optimum (SSW), so it might not be perfect. Still, it's the best we've got.
By Tuesday morning, the 11th, the swell is still around 4ft from the SW with a period of 7 seconds, and the energy is still moderate (160). The wind is glassy out of the ENE again, making for clean conditions. The water is still abnormally warm, but the crowds can be an issue here, so get out early.
After that, the window slams shut again. The swell drops off sharply, and the wind turns onshore, bringing choppy conditions. The rest of the forecast period into the second week is flat or tiny, with weak, poorly shaped waves. It's a classic case of a short window followed by a lot of nothing.
For the one standout, grab the early morning of Monday, the 10th of August. The offshore wind and moderate swell make it the only real option for a clean session.

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.
