The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it’s lookin’ real flat. We’ve got a solid 16-day window ahead, but for the first week or so, there’s barely a ripple to get excited about. The swell is tiny, the energy is next to nothing, and the wind is all over the shop. Honestly, it’s a tough stretch for anyone who wants to get wet.
The first real chance of anything comes from Tuesday, the 25th of August, but even then it’s a long shot. The afternoon could see a little bump of 3ft from the ENE, but it’s pretty weak with only 49 (combined energy) and it’s a short period swell. The wind is cross-off, so that’s a small win, but it’s still not a standout.
The rest of the week stays flat. Wednesday and Thursday mornings from the 26th to the 27th have glassy conditions and offshore breezes, but there’s simply no swell to ride. We’re talkin’ 0ft at best. It’s a painful wait.
Then, as we head into the end of August and the start of September, there’s a glimmer. Friday the 28th of August sees some cross-off wind and a tiny 2ft from the ENE, but it’s only 16 (combined energy). Saturday the 29th and Sunday the 30th are flat again. It’s a real bummer.
The first week of September doesn’t bring much relief either. Tuesday the 1st and Wednesday the 2nd show a little 1ft from the SE with clean conditions, but the energy is still pathetic – just 2 or 3 (combined energy).
The best of a bad bunch: If I had to point you somewhere, it’s to Marina Romea (Italy). It’s a river mouth, so it’s a bit inconsistent and finicky. The water is 85°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. The problem is, the swell is tiny and the period is short. Nothing here is going to get the heart rate up. The only half-decent window is the afternoon of Tuesday the 25th of August, with that 3ft ENE swell, but it’s still a gamble. For most of the 16 days, it’s gonna be a case of checking the camera and walking away.
Hang in there, mates. It can’t stay this flat forever.
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.
