The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what we’ve got on offer.
Honestly, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for Carrubo. The whole 16-day window is a massive dry spell, nothing but tiny, weak swell and barely any energy to speak of. The combined swell energy barely ever cracks double digits, and most days it’s sitting at a pathetic 1 or 2 – that’s weak, barely a ripple. The water is running at 85°, which is 5° warmer than normal – that’s very unusual for this time of year, like sitting in a warm bath. But there’s just no push in the ocean.
The best of a bad lot might be Thursday morning, the 27th of August. It’s still not great, but the swell bumps up to 3ft from the SSW, with a period of 6 seconds – short period, wind swell stuff. The combined energy creeps to 55 (moderate), but the wind is a cross-onshore from the SE at 12 mph, which is going to chop it up. It’ll be messy and hard work. Friday the 28th morning cleans up a bit with a NNW offshore breeze, but the swell drops right back to 1ft, so it’s practically a lake.
Other than that, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. The swell stays below 3ft for the whole outlook and the wind is often onshore or cross-shore. If you’re desperate for a splash, the cleanest windows are the glassy mornings, but with next to no swell, you’d be bobbing around on a board doing nothing. This is one of those blank runs that’s more normal for the area when the swell just doesn’t show. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a wait-and-see situation.
Stay patient,
Rusty

Information about the Carrubo Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Carrubo provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Carrubo can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Carrubo 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 (Carrubo) 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 Carrubo 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.
Carrubo is 10 km (6 miles) from Sabaudia. If you plan a holiday in West Coast of Italy, look for hotels and other accommodation in Sabaudia. Sabaudia has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
