The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Grab a seat, because I’ve had a good look at the charts for our stretch of coast, and I’ve got to be straight with you – it’s a tough one.
Straight off the bat, the overall pattern for the next 16 days is about as flat as a pancake. We're looking at a long, quiet run with barely a ripple for the vast majority of the period. The first solid suggestion of any surf doesn't pop up until Sunday the 30th of August, and even then, it's not exactly firing. There's a big gap of almost no surfable waves from now right through until that Sunday.
Let’s break it down. For the first week, from Saturday the 22nd right through to the end of next week, it’s a dead loss. Tiny, weak scraps on offer, if anything at all. The water temp is sitting at a very unusual 85°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only exciting stat. The combined swell energy is negligible, mostly reading single digits or zero (0-7). Don't even bother looking at the beach; it’s strictly a sunbaking and swimming kind of week.
Now, the only window that even raises an eyebrow is around Sunday the 30th of August. We finally see a pulse of energy coming in. On Sunday morning, we’ve got a clean 3ft swell from the East with glassy conditions at Marina Romea. The combined energy climbs to 28, which is still weak but significantly more than anything else we've seen. This is a river mouth setup, and with the glassy conditions and a bit of E swell, there might be a few fun little bank waves for the longboard or a foiling set-up. The wind goes a bit funky in the afternoon though, picking up from the NNE, so the morning is definitely the call.
We get another little chance on Sunday the 6th of September. This is the other standout, but it's a long way out so don't book the week off. We see a 3ft swell from the SE on the Sunday morning with a 6-second period. The energy is again modest (54). The wind will be cross-offshore from the SW, which will keep the surface clean. At 3ft it’s small, but cleaner than anything else we’ve had, so if you’re desperate, that’s your best bet, but be prepared for it to be a bit weak and wobbly. Keep an eye on it, but don’t hold your breath.
To be honest, with nearly two weeks of very low energy and small surf, and only a couple of very marginal windows, this stretch of coast just isn’t doing it for us. The combined energy never even gets into the moderate range. If you’re a beginner, the 3ft and 3ft days will be safe and small. For anyone else, it’s a waiting game.
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.

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.
