The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty bleak out at Capo Marina. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing on the cards, so don’t be in a hurry to grab your board just yet.
The water is sitting at a balmy 82° with an anomaly over five degrees warmer than normal – that’s a seriously unusual spike, like a bathtub out there, but it doesn’t help the waves.
Looking at the forecast, the first real sign of life doesn't show up until Thursday the 17th. We’ll see a pulse of southwest swell pushing in around 3ft with an 8-second period. The energy is moderate, hitting 113 on the scale, and we’ll have a clean, offshore north wind on it. It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the only chance to get wet. Capo Marina (Capo-Marina) is an exposed reef break, so it can handle this kind of push, but it’s inconsistent, so you'll be waiting around. The swell direction is from the SSW, which is pretty much right in its wheelhouse. It’s not for the faint-hearted, but for the advanced surfer, it’s the one window in this otherwise empty run. That could be the standout, but it’s really just a one-day thing.
After that, it fades out again. We get a tiny leftover bump on Friday morning, maybe 1ft, but the magic is gone. Then we go quiet again into the weekend and through the following week. It’s a long, dry spell. There’s a hint of something small SSE on the 22nd, but at 0.3ft, it’s barely a ripple. The 24th might throw us a 1ft southwest slop, but again, that’s not worth getting excited about.
Honestly, for the next 16 days, you’re looking at one possibly surfable day around Thursday the 17th, and that’s about it. The rest is flat, with a few tiny, poor-condition bumps that are best left alone. Don't hold your breath; forecasts can shift, but this one is looking pretty locked in. Keep the boards in the rack for now.

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.
