Table - best surf conditions forecast for Nova Mar Bella over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s size up the Barcelona situation. Gotta be honest, it’s looking grim and flat for the whole run.
From now, all the way through to the 23rd of July, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. The combined wave energy is pathetic – mostly single digits (1, 2, 8, 9) and the highest we see is a weak 28 on the afternoon of the 16th of July. That’s on a tiny 2ft swell with a short 5-second period, which is just messy wind chop with zero power.
You’ll get a few glassy mornings, like Friday the 10th and Monday the 13th of July, but those are on swells of 0.7ft to 1ft at best. For a beginner at Nova Mar Bella (Barcelona), it’s a nice calm paddle, but there are no waves. The water’s sitting at 77°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, but that’s not gonna help you get a ride.
The rest of the time it’s either blown out by onshore southerlies or totally flat. Even the morning of the 17th of July with a clean offshore breeze only has a 1ft swell. It’s a total tease.
There is no good swell, no clean waves, and nothing to recommend. This is just a dead period for the area. Don’t hold your breath.
Rusty.

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.
