The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks down at Capo Marina.

Right off the bat, it’s a quiet start. For days on end, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. From Monday the 24th of August right through to Thursday the 28th, we’re staring at flat or tiny, messy dribble. The combined swell energy is hanging below 100 (as low as 2 to 40), and most of it is just wind slop. You’d be better off staying home and waxing your board than trying to make something out of those 0.3ft to 2ft cross-onshore ripples. There’s a long dry stretch here, nearly a week of nothing.

Then, Saturday the 29th of August morning finally brings some life. The standout of the whole outlook lands right here. Capo Marina sees a 7ft SSW swell rolling in with a 7-second period. The combined energy hits 581 – that’s moderate to strong energy, and it’s glassy with offshore NNE wind. Reef breaks need that clean face, and this window delivers. The swell direction matches the optimum SSW direction for this spot, and with glassy conditions, it’s going to be a real treat. That 7ft is solid – it’s pushing into expert territory, so this one’s for the crew who know the reef. The crows are only “sometimes” an issue here, so you might have some company but you’ll get waves. Water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing wild.

After that Saturday morning window, the rest of Saturday afternoon goes cross-onshore and drops off fast. Sunday the 30th of August morning is still surfable with a 4ft SSW swell and offshore wind, but it’s ordinary – combined energy down to 148, just a so-so session. Then it fades back into small, choppy nothing for the next several days. There’s a second little uptick on Monday the 7th of September morning, with a 3ft SW swell and clean offshore wind, energy at 86 – that’s weak but rideable, but nothing to light up the horizon.

So, the best bet is without doubt Saturday the 29th of August morning at Capo Marina. That’s the one. Glassy, decent size, right direction. Everything else is a flat or ordinary wait. With no other breaks to compare, that’s the story.

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.
