Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks. I’m not gonna lie to ya, we’re in for a long, flat stretch. The whole run starts off with next to nothing, and for a place like Mini Capo, which is a reef break that’s already known for being inconsistent, this is a proper dry spell. The first real whisper of any action doesn’t show up until Tuesday the 14th of July.
Alright, so the first few days are dead. From Sunday the 5th right through to Monday the 13th, the swell is tiny or non-existent, with combined wave energy barely climbing into double digits—mostly sitting at a pathetic 67 down to zero. The wind flips around a bit, but with no wave height to work with, it’s a total write-off.
Then, on Tuesday morning the 14th of July, we finally get a pulse. The wind goes dead calm—glass—and the waves creep up to 2 feet from the WNW with a period of 5 seconds. The energy is still weak (21). It’s better than nothing, but honestly, that’s about all it is.
Now, the standout of the whole outlook lands on Tuesday afternoon, the 14th of July. Mini Capo wakes up. We’re looking at 4 feet of swell from the NW, period bumping up to 6 seconds, and the combined energy hits 94. It’s not huge, but for this stretch it’s a proper signal. The wind goes cross-offshore from the WNW at 9 mph, which will keep the surface clean. That’s your best shot. It’s only surfable with very ordinary conditions, but for an inconsistent reef that rarely shows, you take what you can get. It’s an advanced spot, so don’t rock up if you’re not confident.
After that little blip, Wednesday the 15th drags us back into the doldrums with 2 feet and weak energy. Then from Thursday the 16th through Monday the 20th, it’s back to near flatness. A bit of glassy morning wind here and there, but waves are below 1 feet. Nothing to paddle for.
So, the call is simple: if you’re desperate, mark Tuesday afternoon, the 14th of July, for Mini Capo. That’s your one and only window. The rest of the 16 days is a true write-off. For a reef that’s this inconsistent, a blank run like this isn’t unusual, but it still stings.

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.
