Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Capo Marina.
Honestly, it’s a pretty quiet stretch ahead. For the next ten days, we’re looking at a whole lot of nothing—tiny waves, poor conditions, and a lot of flat spells. The first proper chance to even think about a paddle doesn’t show up until Saturday, the 18th of July.
That Saturday morning, the 18th, things finally wake up a little. We’ve got a clean, glassy start with a small SSW swell coming in at 3ft and a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is still pretty weak (85), but after such a long dry spell, it’s the best on offer. Capo Marina is an exposed reef that loves a SSW direction, and with the wind glassy, those waves will be clean. Just keep in mind this spot is inconsistent and for advanced surfers only—it’s not a beginner wave, especially on a reef. The water is running at about 77°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, about 4°F above average.
Sunday morning the 19th is worth a mention too. Another glassy start with a 2ft SW swell, period of 7 seconds, and clean conditions. Wave energy is lower (51), so it’s smaller and weaker than Saturday, but still a possible session if you’re keen.
Wednesday morning the 22nd brings a similar setup—3ft SSW swell, 6 seconds, clean winds, and that reef will be working, but again, the energy is modest (49).
Look, there’s nothing big here. No standouts that’ll have you calling in sick. The best of it is that Saturday the 18th—if you’re after a clean, small wave session on a tricky reef, that’s your window. After that, it’s back to tiny or flat conditions. For an area like this, a run like this isn’t unusual, so keep an eye on the forecasts—things can change.
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.
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.
