The Lowdown
G'day, it's Rusty here. I've had a good look at the charts for the Marina Romea region, and I'll be straight with you—it's a lean stretch ahead. The sea is running pretty flat for most of the coming weeks, and while there's a tiny pulse of energy here and there, nothing really shapes up for a proper paddle. We're looking at a long, quiet spell with only one morning that's worth a mention, and that's a long way off.
Let's start with the first bit of action, which is a bit of a tease. On Thursday, the 13th of August, the morning shows a glassy, calm ocean with a tiny 3 ft east-northeast swell. The period is a short 5 seconds, so it's weak and windswell, and the combined energy is only a lackluster (99). It's a river mouth break, so it's inconsistent and rarely breaks—this one is for absolute beginners only, and honestly, it's pretty ordinary. The water temperature is a scorching 86°, which is a huge 7° warmer than usual for this time of year—that's very unusual, like a warm bathtub.
After that, we hit a dead zone. From Friday the 14th of August all the way through to Tuesday the 25th of August, the swell drops to near nothing. Heights are mostly below 2 ft, the combined energy is in the single digits, and the conditions are almost all "poor surf conditions." There's a few moments of glassy or offshore wind, but with no swell to work with, it's a flat spell. You'll be looking at a solid 12-day gap with no genuine surf.
The only glimmer of hope arrives on Thursday, the 27th of August, in the morning. A clean, gentle offshore wind from the west-northwest blows across the break, and we get a 6 ft swell from the northeast with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy jumps to moderate (199), and the conditions are described as "surfable waves but very ordinary." It's too small and short-period for any real power, but it's the best we'll see. The wind is light and offshore, so it'll be clean, but the swell is more suited to kitesurfing than a proper surf session given the weak, short-period energy. This is a long-range call, so keep an eye on it, but don't hold your breath.
In short, the next two weeks are a write-off for surf. The only possible paddle is that Thursday morning on the 27th, and even then, it's a marginal one. Hang in there, and check back in case the forecasts change.
Rusty.

Information about the Marina Romea Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Marina Romea provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Marina Romea can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Marina Romea 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 (Marina Romea) 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 Marina Romea 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.
Marina Romea is 17 km (11 miles) from the city of Comacchio. If you plan a holiday in Adriatic - Italy, look for hotels and other accommodation in Comacchio. Comacchio has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
