The Lowdown
Hey, it’s Rusty. Look, I’m gonna be straight with you – this outlook for Il Convento is a bummer. For the next 16 days, the surf is basically non-existent for a long stretch, and what does show up barely gets your toes wet.
We start off flat as a pancake. On Wednesday 15 July, there’s a tiny push of 2ft SE swell with a short 5-second period and only 20 combined wave energy, but it’s marked as poor. The morning is glassy, which is the only positive. Then from Thursday 16th all the way through Tuesday 22nd, it’s dead flat – zero surf. That’s over a week of nothing. The water is sitting at 80°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least the swim is comfortable.
The only faint hope comes in the final days. On Sunday 26 July morning, we get a small 2ft SE swell (5 seconds, 11 combined energy) with clean conditions and a light cross-off breeze. It’s not much. The next morning, Monday 27 July is sloppy. Then Tuesday 28 July morning gives us the biggest wave of the run – a 2ft SE swell (7 seconds, 36 combined energy) with clean conditions. That’s your best bet, and it’s still tiny and weak. The afternoon gets onshore and messy.
This reef and point spot needs more push than what we’re getting. There’s nothing here for beginners or experts. No standout session, just maybe a few ankle-biters on the 28th morning if you’re desperate.
Hang tight, things can always change.
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.
