G'day, Rusty here. Look, I'm not gonna sugarcoat it – we're looking at a lean spell for Mini Capo. This is a top-shelf advanced reef break, and it's gonna be sitting there doing nothing for most of the next two weeks. The first real sniff of anything rideable doesn't show up until the 16-day mark, so it's a long, quiet stretch ahead.
Right now, things are flat. There's nothing on Saturday the 4th or Sunday the 5th, just tiny messy slop with combined wave energy barely registering. Even though Sunday morning's glassed off, the wave heights are only 3 ft from the NW with a short 7-second period, and the data's calling it poor surf. We'll see a dry spell of about 12 days where there's next to no energy at all. From Monday the 6th right through to Friday the 17th, the swell drops to a paltry 1 ft or less, and there are long stretches where the numbers are zeros. The water's been way warmer than usual at 79° today, but that's not much comfort when there's no surf.
The only time this place gets a pulse is on Saturday the 18th. The early morning shows a building 4 ft swell from the NW with a 7-second period and combined energy hitting 109 – finally some moderate juice. By the afternoon it's up to 4 ft from the NW, period 6 seconds, and energy at 115. The wind's looking cross-shore in the afternoon, which isn't ideal but it's not a total blowout. This is the one window in the whole 16-day forecast worth paying attention to, but it's far out and the wave period's short, so expect it to be a bit fat and weak. It'll still be the best on offer, but for a heavy reef like this, you need more.
After that, Sunday the 19th has a drop back to 3 ft with glassy morning conditions and offshore wind from the ENE, but the energy's back down to 50. It's clean, just small.
So, there you have it. A whole lot of nothing for ages, then a single day of marginal swell two weeks out. For a spot this inconsistent, it's not unusual to have these blank runs. Keep your eye on that Saturday the 18th and Sunday the 19th, but don't hold your breath.
Rusty.

Information about the Mini Capo Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Mini Capo provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Mini Capo can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Mini Capo 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 (Mini Capo) 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 Mini Capo 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.
