The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer at Nova Mar Bella over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim run. This breakwater spot is usually fairly consistent for beginners, but this 16‑day window is mostly flat or close to it. The water’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – about 80°F with a 3°F anomaly – so that’s one small comfort if you’re just floating around.
From now right through to Thursday morning the 30th of July, it’s all “poor surf conditions” with zero recommendations. There’s a stretch of over two weeks with nothing worth paddling out for. Swell heights barely tickle 2–2 ft on a few days, but the direction’s all wrong (mostly E or ESE) and the periods are short, under 5–6 seconds. The combined energy never gets above single digits – weak (5 to 24) – so no push behind it.
The only day that even gets a mention is Thursday morning the 30th of July. The wind goes glassy with a light cross‑offshore from the west‑northwest, and the swell edges up to 3 ft from the ESE with a 7‑second period. Combined energy hits 52, which is still moderate at best. The notes say “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” If you’re desperate, you might find a knee‑high crumble, but don’t expect a proper wave.
After that, it fades again into Friday the 31st with tiny glassy conditions again. There’s no standout session in the whole forecast. For a spot that’s normally fairly consistent, this flat spell is a bummer. Keep an eye on the charts – forecasts can change, and it usually doesn’t stay this poor for long.
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.
