Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you – it's a tough one. There's a massive dry spell coming, so we're gonna talk about a whole lot of nothing before we even get a glimpse of a wave.
The only spot we've got any data for is La Marina, a reef setup that's usually inconsistent. Right now, the water's sitting at 78°, which is a whopping 8° warmer than usual for this time of year – that's very unusual, you could almost call it bathwater.
We start off on Monday afternoon, July 6th, with a tiny 1ft swell from the SE, but the period is a weak 4 seconds and the wind is onshore. The combined energy is a paltry 5, and it's just poor surf conditions. Honestly, not worth paddling out for.
Tuesday the 7th through to Saturday the 18th of July is a brutal run. I'm talking day after day of either tiny 0.7ft wind slop, or flat spells with zero wave energy. The wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, and even when we get a glassy morning on Wednesday the 8th or Tuesday the 14th, there's simply no swell to ride. It's flat.
There is one glimmer, but it's a long way off. On Saturday morning, July 19th, we see a tiny bit of life. A 0.7ft swell from the SSE with a 4-second period, but combined energy of just 1. For a break that's already inconsistent, these are desperate numbers. The wind is glassy though, so if you're a total beginner and you want to sit on a foamie in clean but tiny conditions, that's your window. It's not a standout by any stretch.
The rest of the 21st rolls out the same story: small, weak, and messy.
So here's the bottom line: For the entire 16-day outlook, there are no good surf options. None. The wave energy is almost non-existent. We’ve got a solid two-week gap where the only recommendation is to wait for a better forecast.
Stay patient, keep an eye on the charts, and don't sell your board just yet.
Rusty.

Information about the La Marina Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Marina provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Marina can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Marina 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 (La Marina) 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 La Marina 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.
La Marina is 4 km (2 miles) from the city of Cagnes-sur-Mer. If you plan a holiday in Cote d'Azur, look for hotels and other accommodation in Cagnes-sur-Mer. Cagnes-sur-Mer has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
