The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be real about what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks. I’ve got to be straight with you – it’s looking pretty grim for a paddle. The whole 16-day window is a quiet one, and there’s a long stretch where you won’t even want to bother looking at the water.
The first sign of anything surfable is a tiny whisper on the 31st of July. Friday morning at Il Convento, it’s flat calm with a glassy sea, but the swell is a joke at 0.3 ft from the SE. The combined energy is a measly 1 (weak energy). The water is sitting at 81°, which is more than 4° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a seriously warm swim. But it’s not a surf. The whole morning is a zero. The afternoon turns into a gentle cross-onshore chop from the south, so you can forget about it.
Then we hit a real dead zone. From Saturday the 1st of August right through to the 12th of August, there’s nothing. I mean zero. The wind is all over the place – some clean mornings with offshore breezes, but no swell to back it up. The combined energy sits at 0 for day after day. It’s a proper blank run. This kind of flat spell, where the consistency is non-existent, is pretty normal for this area when the ocean just shuts down.
We finally get a tiny flicker on the 13th of August. Thursday morning at Il Convento, it’s dead calm – glassy – with a 0.3 ft ripple from the NE. The combined energy is still only 1 (weak energy). It’s barely a ripple, not a wave. By the afternoon, the wind swings to the SSW at 12 mph, making it a moderate cross-onshore chop. Not worth a paddle.
The last few days, the 14th and 15th of August, offer nothing. Glassy mornings, but flat as a pancake. The afternoons get chopped up by moderate winds. The combined energy is a zero across the board.
So, there’s no standout session here. Not a single day worth suiting up for. The only break on the radar is Il Convento, a reef and point setup that’s inconsistent and rarely breaks. It’s exposed to the SE, which is the optimum direction, but the swell just isn’t there. It’s a frustrating outlook, but the ocean will come back. Forecasts can change. For now, it’s a no-go.
Rusty.

Information about the Il Convento Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Il Convento provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Il Convento can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Il Convento 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 (Il Convento) 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 Il Convento 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.
Il Convento is 20 km (12 miles) from the city of Capoterra. If you plan a holiday in Sardinia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Capoterra. Capoterra has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
