The Lowdown
Listen up, crew. Rusty here. This 16-day outlook for Nova Mar Bella is a total flat spell. The finder’s got nothing for us, and the guidance says it’s a breakwater that’s exposed, but there’s just no swell. A blank run like this isn’t unusual for the Mediterranean, so don’t get your hopes up.
Let’s start on the 4th of September. Afternoon is cross-on wind from the SSW at 12 mph, with a tiny 1ft swell from the SW, period of 3 seconds. The combined energy is a weak 2, and it’s choppy garbage. The water’s a touch warmer than usual at 80°F, but that’s all we got.
The 5th of September morning cleans up with a light W wind at 6 mph, cross-off, but the swell drops to 1.0ft, same 3-second period. It’s clean, but you’re floating on glass. The afternoon turns cross-on and messy again.
The 6th of September is totally flat – zero energy, onshore wind from the SE. Don’t bother. The 7th of September morning goes glassy, but you’ve got 1ft from the ENE at 3 seconds. The 8th of September morning has a glassy 0.3ft from the S at 5 seconds – energy of 1 (weak). That’s a puddle.
The 9th of September morning shows the biggest bump: 5ft from the ENE, 6-second period, combined energy of 134 (moderate). It’s cross-on from the E at 3 mph, with a risk of thunderstorms. The waves are still poor, and at 5ft, it’s starting to get big for beginners here. The period is short, so it’s weak and messy. Not worth a session.
From the 10th of September on, it’s a long stretch of tiny, inconsistent slop. The 12th of September morning is glassy with 1.0ft from the SW, 4-second period, energy of 2 (weak). The 16th of September afternoon shows 3ft from the E, 4-second period, with 33 (weak) energy, but it’s under cross-shore wind. Still poor.
It’s a drought, folks. The only real pulse is the 9th of September, and it’s not good. Leave your board at home. Forecasts can change, but this one’s a dud.
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.
