The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming our way. I gotta be straight with you, it's a tough stretch for surf around Isola Delle Femmine. There is one small window that might get your hopes up, but we've got a lot of flat, quiet days to wade through first.
The next week is a write-off. From right now, through to about the 18th of August, it's basically flat. We’ve got a few ripples here and there, but nothing you’d bother paddling out for. Just glassy mornings and light breezes, good for a swim but not a wave. That’s a solid 8-day gap with no real surf to speak of.
So, where’s the one potential highlight? It shows up on Wednesday the 19th. The morning looks a bit iffy with a small 3ft cross-shore bump from the west, weak energy at 104 and a short 6-second period. Not much happening. But then the afternoon gets interesting. We finally see some life: waves building to 4ft from the NNW with a clean, cross-off wind from the east at 9 mph. The combined swell energy jumps to 214 (moderate), and it’s looking like it could actually be surfable. The period is 8 seconds, so it’s a mix of wind and groundswell, nothing special, but clean faces and some shape should be there. This isn't huge – it’s beginner-friendly – but after a week of nothing, it’s the standout. The water is a toasty 86°F, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year, a solid 7°F above normal. The wind is light and offshore, so the wave faces should be clean.
After that little blast on the 19th, it’s back to the doldrums. Thursday the 20th morning has a tiny 2ft west swell with light offshore wind, but it’s weak (52 energy). Then Thursday afternoon the onshore wind cranks up to 12 mph from the WNW and kills it. From Friday the 21st all the way through to the 26th, it’s back to tiny, choppy, or flat conditions. Not worth a second look.
So, if you’re after a wave, pencil in the afternoon of Wednesday the 19th at Isola Delle Femmine. The wind is clean and it’s the only pulse of energy on the whole chart. Crowds are possible here, but with such a long gap, I bet everyone will be keen for a paddle. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, so perfect for getting the cobwebs out. Trust me on this one, it’s the only game in town.
Rusty.

Information about the Isola Delle Femmine Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Isola Delle Femmine provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Isola Delle Femmine can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Isola Delle Femmine 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.

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 Isola Delle Femmine 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.
