Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – we're looking at a pretty bleak stretch ahead at Mini Capo. The next couple of weeks are mostly a write-off with next to no rideable swell on the cards.
Things are flat to start. Monday the 6th of July kicks off with a tiny 2 ft NW windswell and a light cross-onshore breeze, but it's a mess – poor surf conditions are the name of the game. That theme carries through the whole week and into the next. We see a few mornings of glassy conditions with hardly a ripple, like Tuesday the 14th of July morning, but with swell heights barely hitting 0.3 ft and the combined energy sitting at just 1, there's nothing to paddle for.
There's a big gap from now until the third week of July. A real dry spell. The water temp on the first day is 77°F, which is about a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
The only faint glimmer in this forecast shows up right at the tail end. On Tuesday the 21st of July, we get a pulse of swell from the NW pushing 4 ft with a period of 8 seconds and a combined energy of 181. That's moderate energy, but the wind is a cross-shore from the East at 9 mph, keeping things pretty choppy. The afternoon cleans up the wind direction a bit, but it goes cross-onshore and drops the wave height. The whole setup is more of a washout than a standout.
For a break that's an exposed reef and inconsistent at the best of times, this stretch of nothing is pretty normal for the area. Don't hold your breath. Forecasts can change, but right now, there's honestly nothing to get excited about.
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.
