The Lowdown
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: the next couple of weeks are looking rough for a proper surf. We’ve got a long, flat spell on the cards, so don’t go getting your hopes up just yet. The first real pulse of any note doesn’t show up until the 27th, and even then, it’s not the kind of thing that’ll have you calling in sick.
The start of the period is a write-off. We’ve got a few tiny, short-period windswells rolling through, but they’re all under 3ft and the period is a weak 4-5 seconds. That’s just chop and bump, not surf. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the conditions are poor. There’s a bit of cleaner morning wind here and there, but with zero swell to show for it, it’s just a flat, glassy ocean. You’re looking at a solid week and a half with nothing to ride.
Now, the one thing that catches my eye is the morning of the 27th. We finally get a bit of energy—the combined energy jumps to 140, which is moderate. We’re looking at a 4ft swell with a 6-second period, coming from the NNE. It’s not a world-beater, but it’s something. It’s still rated as poor surf though, and with the wind coming onshore from the ESE, it’s going to be messy. Not the cleanest conditions, but at least there’s some push.
If you’re desperate around then, Marina Romea is a river mouth, and this kind of short-period swell might offer a couple of close-out sandbars. It’s inconsistent at the best of times, and with the onshore wind, it’s going to be a bit of a battle. The water temp is the real story early on though—it’s a very unusual 86°, which is over 7° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s some seriously warm water, but it doesn’t make up for the lack of waves.
Honestly, for the first ten days or so, the setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. The onshores are going to be strong enough to get some air, but for us, it’s a blank run. This is a pretty normal dry spell for this area, so don’t panic. The swell window is just a bit shut. Keep an eye on the 27th and maybe the days after; forecasts can shift, and this could change into something, but for now, I’d keep the board in the car and the foamy on the shelf.

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.
