The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Capo Marina over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a tough stretch. We’re looking at a real dry spell for most of the forecast period. For days on end, from Thursday the 30th of July all the way through to the morning of Tuesday the 11th of August, there’s just nothing worthwhile. It’s flat, or the tiny dribbles of energy that show up are too weak to even bother with. The combined wave energy sits below 20, just tiny numbers. You’re better off leaving the boards in the car.
Now, when we finally do see a pulse of life, it’s on Tuesday the 11th of August. That morning, the swell starts to show some teeth – we’re looking at a SSW swell pushing 5ft, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 279 (moderate wave energy). It’s still a short period swell, so the waves will be a bit lumpy and close together, but with a clean, light off-shore wind, it’ll be rideable. That afternoon the swell actually bumps up to 6ft and the energy hits 489, but the wind swings cross-on, making it messy. That’s the only real highlight of the entire outlook.
Wednesday the 12th of August morning offers a drop-off to 4ft from the SW, period 8 seconds, energy at 173 (moderate), with clean winds again, but it’s just “ordinary.” After that, it fades back into the dirt.
Now, the water temp here is a real standout – it’s sitting at 82°, which is a full 5° warmer than normal for this time of year. That is very unusual, so if you do get in, you won’t need a wetsuit, that’s for sure.
But look, the only day that even gets a nod from me is the morning of the 11th of August. It’s a one-hit wonder in a long, quiet spell.
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.
