The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming.
Straight up, Capo Marina is a reef break that rarely lights up, and this 16-day run is mostly a flat spell. It’s an advanced, inconsistent spot, and we’ve got a big dry gap before anything worthwhile shows up. For the first week and a half, it’s flat and tiny scraps that don’t amount to a thing. The water is sitting at 81°, which is 8° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s a real oddity, feels like a warm bath.
The only real window of opportunity comes on the morning of Thursday, September 10th. We get a small pulse of S swell at 2ft, with a period of 7 seconds, pushing a combined energy of (74). It’s not big, but it’s the best we’ll see. The wind is light and cross-shore from the ESE, keeping things clean. The swell direction is S, not quite the ideal SSW, but it’ll be rideable for the advanced crew who know the reef. The afternoon holds a bit more, but the wind goes cross-onshore, so it messes up.
The morning of Friday, September 11th has a tiny 1ft, 8-second swell from the SW, but with a risk of thunderstorms and a cross-shore breeze, it’s nothing to get stoked about. After that, it’s back to hardly anything.
The 10th morning is the only real standout, and even then, it’s small. If you’re keen for a paddle, that’s your spot. Otherwise, it’s a good time to hang the wetsuit up.
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.
