The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – looking at the 16-day window for Il Convento, it’s a pretty grim picture. This is a reef and point setup that’s inconsistent at the best of times, and unfortunately, this stretch is a real dud. We’re looking at a long, dry gap with absolutely nothing worth paddling out for in the first week and a half. The wait for anything even remotely surfable is nearly ten days.
The water is sitting at a very unusual 81°F – that’s a full three degrees warmer than average for this time of year, which is a real anomaly and feels like a bath.
The first real glimmer, and I mean a tiny glimmer, shows up on the morning of Sunday the 26th of July. We finally see a pulse of 3ft swell from the SSE, with a period of 5 seconds. The combined energy is weak (92). The wind is light offshore from the NNW, keeping it clean. But honestly, with that short period and small size, it’s just surfable, not good. The afternoon turns to chop anyway.
The morning of Monday the 27th of July is a similar story: 3ft from the SE, period 6 seconds, combined energy at 51, and light cross-offshore winds. It’s clean, but it’s still nothing to get excited about. The rest of the window is just tiny, wind-affected scraps.
Because the swell is so small and weak throughout, and the overall quality is poor, there are no standout sessions. The only time you might bother to get wet is on the morning of the 26th or 27th, and even then, keep your expectations on the floor. For this spot, a blank run like this isn’t unusual given its inconsistent nature. It’s not looking like a paddle; more like a waiting game. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a hard pass.
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.
