The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for this spot.
Honestly, there’s a tough stretch ahead. The next week and a half is looking flat or close to it. We’re talkin’ a proper lull from now right through until the morning of Monday, August 10th. That’s over a week of hardly anything to get excited about. The wind will be glassy some mornings, but without any swell to push through, it’s just a smooth, empty ocean.
The first real hint of life shows up on the morning of Monday, August 10th at La Marina. The swell is a tiny 1ft out of the SSW, with a short period of just 5 seconds. The combined energy of all swells directed here is a weak 10, so it’s not going to offer much. Still, the wind is glassy that morning, so if you’re desperate for a few knee-high bumps, it’ll be clean. By the afternoon, it drops back down to nothing.
Later on, the morning of Wednesday, August 12th also has a similar 1ft from the ENE, short period again at 4 seconds, with a combined energy of 5. The wind is light cross-onshore, so it won’t be that clean. It’s not really surfable; it’s more of a ripple.
The only break we’ve got to look at is La Marina, a reef that’s inconsistent and often crowded. With the swell this small, there’s nothing to recommend. If you’re a beginner, there’s nothing here to worry about, because there’s nothing breaking. For experts, it’s a total write-off too. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing weird going on there.
Stick with the flat spell, and wait for the forecasts to change. It’s a tough one.
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.
