The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.

Honestly, I’ve been staring at the charts for this stretch and, well, it’s a tough one. There’s a big fat zero in the surf department for the first week and a half. We’re looking at a solid gap with no real waves to speak of from now until the middle of the month. The ocean is just flat, flat, flat. It’s the kind of quiet that makes you want to check your gear is still in the car.

The first faint whisper of life shows up on the morning of Friday, August 16th. But even then, it’s tiny. We’re talking about Capo Marina, a reef break that’s known for being inconsistent, and it’s living up to that reputation. The water is warm, 83.5°F, which is *much warmer than normal* for this time of year – clocking in at a 6.7°F anomaly. That’s a wild ocean temperature spike, folks.

That morning on the 16th, you’ll see a measly 1.0ft of swell from the SSW, with a short period of 5 seconds. The wind is light and cross-offshore, so it’ll be clean, but there’s almost no energy (6). It’s a wave, technically, but it’s a frustrating one. The afternoon gets a little more bumpy with 2.0ft of swell from the South, but the wind swings cross-onshore, and the energy is still very weak (27). It’s not what you’d call proper surf.

After that, the outlook goes back to zilch. A few more days of flatness and poor conditions roll through. The only other tiny blip is on the Thursday, August 22nd, where we might see a 0.7ft ripple from the SSW in the morning with glassy conditions, but the energy is so low (1) it’s barely a bump. The whole second week is a washout, just small, short-period slop pushed around by onshore breezes.

There’s no standout here. If you absolutely have to get wet, the cleanest option is the morning of the 16th, but keep your expectations on the floor. Otherwise, it’s a good time to wax your board, watch the horizon, and wait for the next proper swell. This is a long, quiet spell for the area.

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.
