Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on for Diano Marina.
I gotta be honest, the next 16 days are looking real slow. From now right through to Saturday the 26th of July, the swell is almost non-existent. The wave energy numbers are tiny – most are zero or single digits, with the highest reading early on being just 6. We’re in for a long, quiet stretch.
Water temp is 78°, which is about 6° warmer than the usual for this time of year. That’s a big anomaly – the sea is feeling more like a bath.
If we skip through the days, the first time we see any rideable swell is around Saturday the 13th and Sunday the 14th of July. The mornings are glassy, but there’s no swell. By Monday the 15th, we get a faint 0.7ft S swell with a period of 5 seconds – combined energy is just 3. Not exactly calling for a paddle.
There’s a slight flicker on Saturday the 18th of July morning. A 1ft swell from SSE, period around 5 seconds, combined energy hits 18. Wind is a light cross from the NE. It’s still small, and the break is inconsistent anyway, but it’s the cleanest we’ve seen so far.
Then, Sunday the 19th of July morning gives us calm, glassy conditions with that same 1ft SSE swell, combined energy of 16. It’s tiny, but if you’re keen, that glassy window is your best look.
The pick of a very quiet bunch is probably Tuesday the 21st of July. Morning brings a 1ft S swell, period of 4 seconds, combined energy of 8. Wind is light and cross-off from the north, so it’s clean. It’s weak and short-period, but for Diano Marina in this window, that’s as good as it gets.
After that, it’s back to flatness and choppy afternoons through to the 26th. No solid swell is coming our way.
So, if you’re a beginner just wanting to get wet on a soft top, the morning of Tuesday the 21st of July is your moment. For everyone else, this is a waiting game. The breaks here are usually fairly consistent, so it probably won’t stay this quiet forever, but for now… it’s a bit of a bust.
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.
