The Lowdown
Second Text (Imperial Units)
Alright, let's talk shop. For La Marina, the next 16 days are a big, fat nothing-burger. This reef break is going to be flat as a pancake for the long haul.
The first week is a total disaster. The energy reading is zilch (0) for the first nine days. The water temp is a weird 84°F, which is *far warmer than normal*, so it’s like surfing in a warm bath, but there are no waves to paddle into.
From Sunday, August 9th all the way through Saturday, August 16th, it's all "poor surf conditions." On Monday, August 11th, we see a faint 0.7ft swell, but the period’s a weak 4 seconds, the energy is a pathetic 2, and the wind is on it. You’d be wasting your time.
That dead zone runs for nearly a week and a half. Then, around Tuesday, August 18th, we get a tiny blip. A 0.7ft SSW groundswell at 5-6 seconds, but the combined energy is still only 3. With a cross or onshore breeze, it's not going to be clean.
The only window that even looks close to surfable is Saturday, August 22nd in the morning. We've got a 0.7ft S swell with a 7-second period, and a clean offshore wind from the West. The energy is a low 4, but that offshore flow will make it glassy. It's your best shot for a few clean little waves, but it's tiny.
The next morning, Sunday the 23rd, has a similar setup—a 0.7ft E swell with a Westerly offshore, again clean but tiny.
If you're really jonesing, dawn patrol on Saturday, August 22nd is the call. That small 0.7ft South swell with clean offshore wind is your only realistic option. Everything else is a flat spell. Don't hold your breath.

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.
