The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get this straight. Looking at the whole 16-day window, there’s nothing out there worth getting excited about. The surf is tiny, and the energy just isn't there. It’s going to be a real grind for anyone looking for a proper wave. We’ve got a long stretch of poor conditions with no real swell on the horizon.
The first few days are completely flat. Thursday the 6th and Friday the 7th are basically dead with waves barely reaching 0.7ft. The weekend, the 8th and 9th, is more of the same – glassy mornings but the ocean’s got nothing to offer. You’ll be doing more floating than surfing.
We do see a little bump in the combined energy around the 10th, with readings hitting 25 (moderate wave energy), but the wave height stays at a pathetic 3ft. The wind is onshore and choppy, so it’s not going to be pretty. It settles down again after that, back to the same old story of tiny, weak surf.
The middle of the week starting the 12th is a write-off. The 15th and 16th see the energy dip and spike, but it’s all under 3ft. The 18th and 19th show a little more life with energy readings of 25 and 8, but we’re still only looking at 2ft and 1ft waves. The whole period is just a series of small, weak pulses with no real power behind them.
The one spot in the mix is Nova Mar Bella, a breakwater that’s fairly consistent. It’s a beginner spot, and honestly, with waves this small, that’s about all it’s good for. The water temperature is sitting at a very unusual 83°F, which is nearly 5°F warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s a notable anomaly. But the swell is coming from the south and southwest, which isn't its optimum direction.
Honestly, for the whole 16 days, there’s not a single standout. The best you could hope for is a few clean, glassy mornings where you might catch a knee-high slop if you’re desperate. It’s a blank run, and it’s not looking like it’ll change. The only time the wind is favorable is the morning, but there’s just no swell to push anything through. You’d have more fun on a paddleboard than a surfboard.

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