The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a quiet start. We're looking at a long stretch of flatness or tiny, gutless waves. From Monday the 7th right through to Thursday the 17th of September, it's a write-off. There's no energy to speak of; the combined swell energy is basically zero (0) for most of that run. You'll see a few tiny ripples, maybe 1ft at best, but with periods around 3-4 seconds, it's just wind chop. Not worth paddling out for.
The first real glimmer of hope arrives on the morning of Friday the 18th of September. Capo Marina wakes up with a clean 5ft swell from the SW, with a period of 6 seconds. The wind is a gentle offshore from the N, keeping the surface tidy. The combined energy jumps to a moderate 301. It's not huge, but it's the first proper surf we've seen. Afternoon glass off, but the swell drops back to 4ft.
Saturday the 19th has a morning window with a clean 3ft SSW swell and a light offshore breeze. The energy is down to 107, so it's nothing special, but it's surfable. By the afternoon, the wind swings onshore and it gets messy.
The standout is the Friday the 18th morning session at Capo Marina. It's the only time in the whole forecast where the stars align for a decent wave. The 5ft swell from the SW with that clean offshore wind will be the best you'll get. It's a reef break, so it'll handle that swell direction well, but remember it's an inconsistent spot and for advanced surfers only. If you're a beginner, that 5ft is getting a bit punchy for you, and the inconsistency means you'll be waiting around for the sets.
After that, it fades back to nothing. So, my advice: mark your calendar for Friday the 18th of September, get up early, and make the most of that window. It's not a classic, but it's the only game in town.
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.
