The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Diano Marina.
To be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for Diano Marina. There’s a long dry spell on the cards here, with hardly any surf worth paddling out for. We’ve got a real gap from the start all the way through to the first weekend in September before we see the tiniest pulse. After that, it’s back to near nothing for days on end. It’s one of those frustrating runs where you’re better off leaving the board in the car.
The only period that even gets a little twitch is Saturday, 5th September. On the Saturday morning, we’ll see a tiny 2ft swell coming out of the SSE with a short, weak period of 5 seconds. The combined swell energy is only 48 (weak). The wind will be a light cross-off from the NNE at 9 mph, which will keep the surface clean. It’s not a standout by any stretch – the swell is tiny and the energy is low. This is an exposed spot, so it’ll catch whatever’s out there, but it’s inconsistent, and you’re not going to find anything with any push. The optimum swell direction for Diano Marina is from the S, and we’re getting a SSE, so it’s a bit off-angle. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
Saturday afternoon doesn’t look any better, with a smaller 1.3ft swell and a longer 8-second period, but the cross-shore wind from the NE at 9 mph will put a bit of chatter on it. It’s all poor surf conditions across the forecast.
The rest of the days are either flat or showing less than 0.7ft with no energy. Wednesday morning, 2nd September, is glassy, but there’s zero swell. That sums it up. If you’re desperate to get wet, Saturday the 5th morning is your only real chance, but you’ll be scratching for anything rideable.
Bottom line: A long, poor run with only one very marginal window. Not the time to get excited.

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.
