Right then, gather 'round. Rusty here.
Look, I'm gonna level with you. This forecast for Nova Mar Bella is a tough one. We're looking at a full 16-day window, and honestly, there's not a single day where I'd tell you to rush down there with your board. The whole stretch is a write-off for any kind of decent surf. We're talking about a real blank run here, which is pretty normal for this area in the middle of summer when the swell just disappears.
We start off on Friday, July 10th, and it's a total flat spell. The combined wave energy is a pitiful 0. Not a ripple. That carries on through the weekend. Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th cook up a tiny bit of windswell, maybe 1ft to 2ft, but it's coming from the east with a short, weak period of 4 to 6 seconds. The wind is mostly cross-onshore, chopping it up into a mess. The combined energy barely breaks into double digits (18 max), so it's not worth a second look.
The entire first week is a dead loss. All the way through to Friday, July 24th, the swell heights are stuck below 3ft, periods are short, and the energy readings are all in the single digits or low teens. There are some glassy mornings, like on Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th, but with no swell to speak of (1ft to 1ft), all you get is a flat, shiny ocean. It's cruel.
Even the last few days of the forecast, up to Saturday the 25th, don't offer any hope. The biggest swell we see all window is a paltry 3ft on the morning of Friday the 24th from the ENE with a period of 4 seconds. That's still a weak, junky little wave with a combined energy of only 36. It's just not enough to get excited about.
For a spot like this, a breakwater that needs a solid South swell to work, we're just not getting it. The wind is often messy, and the swell is tiny. To be honest, with the wind and the small, weak waves, this setup looks more interesting for a sesh on a kite than a paddle board.
Honestly, save your energy. This is a two-week holiday from surfing. The forecasts can change, but right now, there's nothing to chase.

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.
