The Lowdown

Right, folks, Rusty here. Let's be honest, this is a tough one to call. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for the most part. We've got a real gap in the action, with nothing worth paddling out for until we get into the final week of the month. The good news is that the water temperature at Capo Marina is sitting at a balmy 81°, which is a massive 7° warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least you won't be shivering while you're waiting for a wave.

Looking at the first few days, from Wednesday the 15th right through to Saturday the 26th of July, it's a real desert. We're talking about a solid 11 days where the swell is just too small and weak to bother with. The combined energy readings are in the single digits or low teens, which is barely a ripple. You'll see some glassy mornings, like Wednesday the 15th itself with that 1.0ft SSW swell, but it's just not enough to wrap around the reef. The wave comments are all telling the same story: "poor surf conditions." It's a tough stretch.

Now, there is a small glimmer of hope way out there. On Sunday the 26th of July, the forecast starts to show a bit of life. We see a 2ft SSW swell, but the period jumps to 8 seconds on the morning and 10 seconds on the afternoon. The combined energy also climbs to 61 and then 93, which is a moderate push of energy. The wind is a bit of a mess though, with a moderate cross-shore chop in the afternoon. It's not a standout, but it's the first real sign of something happening. The Monday the 27th morning looks cleaner with some glassy 1ft leftovers, but it's still tiny.

The real, and only, standout in this whole 16-day window comes on the morning of Saturday the 25th of July. The wind is a clean offshore from the NNE, blowing at just 3 mph, and the combined energy is a weak 1. Don't be fooled by the numbers, though. At Capo Marina, that clean offshore wind on a 0.7ft ESE swell is the best you're going to get in this lull. It's a long shot, but for a real glimmer of hope, that's it. The break is a reef, so it can handle a bit of period, but this is one for the patient, advanced surfer looking for a glassy, empty lineup. This spot is inconsistent and crowds are sometimes possible, but with conditions this marginal, you'll probably have it to yourself. It's not a day for the beginners, as the waves are tiny.

For the rest of the window, it's a waiting game. Those 2ft to 2ft SW swells on the 26th and 27th are the best of a bad bunch, but the winds are not ideal. The 2ft from the SW on the 26th with a 10-second period has a moderate cross-shore chop, which isn't good for the reef. The 27th looks cleaner with a glassy morning, but the swell is already fading. It's a tough forecast, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Rusty, signing off.

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.
