The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty again, looking at Diano Marina for the next two weeks. I won't sugarcoat it—it's a pretty grim run. We've got plenty of glassy mornings, but a flat ocean to go with them. The water is sitting at a very warm 81°, way above normal for this time of year, so you'll be in boardies for sure.
We start off with a long, flat patch. From now until the end of the first week, it's a dead loss for surfing. You'll see clean conditions on the mornings of the 4th, 5th, and 6th with light offshore breezes, but with zero swell, you're just looking at a mirror.
The only real opportunity pops up on Wednesday the 9th. The morning shows a small 3-foot swell from the SW (6 seconds), with moderate energy (85). The wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNW, so it should be clean. It's surfable, but it's nothing to write home about. The afternoon turns ugly with thunderstorms and an onshore wind.
After that, it's back to the doldrums. The afternoon of the 15th has a tiny 1-foot wave from the ENE with clean wind, but it’s barely a bump.
The last possible option is on Thursday afternoon, the 17th. There’s a 3-foot swell from the ENE with a short 6-second period and moderate energy (48). The wind is onshore from the SE, so the surface will be choppy.
There's no real standout here. If you absolutely have to get wet, aim for the morning of Wednesday the 9th for a clean 3-foot wave. Don’t expect much, though.
Rusty.

Information about the Diano Marina Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Diano Marina provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Diano Marina can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Diano 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 (Diano 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 Diano 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.
