Table - best surf conditions forecast for Il Convento over the next 16 days.
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s be straight with you. Over the next couple of weeks, we’re looking at a long, quiet stretch. The finder shows some tiny bumps here and there but nothing that’s really going to get the heart racing. Water temp is sitting at 79°F, which is about 5°F warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s a pretty noticeable jump, so you’ll be in for a warm one if you do go in.
First up, Il Convento. This is a reef and point set-up, exposed to the swell. It’s inconsistent and rarely breaks, so it takes a special set of conditions to get it working. For this whole 16-day run, the biggest pulse comes in on Saturday, July 12, morning. Swell is bumping to 4ft from the SE, with a short period of 6 seconds – not a lot of push. Combined wave energy is up at 88, so there’s a bit of juice but it’s weak to moderate. The wind is light NNE, offering a clean cross-offshore look, so the surface should be tidy. It’s surfable but it’s very ordinary. That’s about as good as it gets, and honestly, it’s nothing special. Crowds can pop up here sometimes, but with waves this small, it won’t be a circus.
From Sunday, July 13 right through to Saturday, July 25, the swell drops into the tiny zone – under 2ft, periods so short you’d barely call it a wave. Combined energy sits in single or low double digits. There are lots of glassy or light offshore mornings – July 13 morning, July 15 morning, July 18 morning and afternoon, July 20 and 21 mornings – all clean and inviting. But with hardly any swell to ride, you’re just floating. The afternoon of July 21 shows a 1ft from the SSW and a moderate offshore from the NW, still clean but tiny.
The pattern here is clear: no standout days, no pumping swell. For a break that is as inconsistent as Il Convento, a flat run like this is more normal than unusual. Don’t hold your breath. If you’re desperate for a paddle and a few close-outs, pick a clean morning between July 12-15, but keep expectations low.
That’s it from me. Hang loose.

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.
