The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, this is a rough stretch for Capo Marina. The next 16 days are basically a write-off for any decent paddle surfing. We’re talking a major dry spell. From now, right through the end of July and into the first week of August, there is absolutely nothing rideable. The swell is tiny, nothing over 1 ft, and the conditions are either flat or blown out. The only thing that changes is the wind direction. So, you’re looking at a gap of nearly two weeks with no real surf on offer. It’s one of those periods where it’s just not happening.
We finally get a little pulse of life around the 8th of August. Saturday morning sees a bump in swell to 4 ft from the SW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy hits 184 (moderate), so there’s some push there. But the wind is cross-onshore from the SE, blowing at 9 mph, which is going to chop it up. The morning of the 9th (Sunday) is a bit cleaner, with a lighter N wind coming cross-offshore, but the swell has already dropped back to 2 ft.
The only real standout in this whole sorry outlook is the morning of Wednesday, the 12th of August. The swell is back up to 3 ft from the SSW, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is 81 (weak). More importantly, the wind is glassy, coming from the NE at just 3 mph. It’s a rare moment of clean, glassy conditions. The water is a notable 82°, which is much warmer than normal for the time of year, so you’ll be comfortable. But remember, this is an advanced reef break that is inconsistent, so don’t expect a party. It’s a spot that needs a lot of things to line up, and while this is the best we’ve got, it’s still a gamble. The 3 ft SSW swell will be wrapping in, and with the glassy morning, it’s your only real shot at a few clean ones.
Everything else is a dud. This area is known for going flat, and this is a classic blank run. Hold tight, forecasts can change, but for now, leave the board in the car.
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.
