The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a good look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I’ve gotta keep it real with you, this is a tough one. Looking at the whole 16-day window, the surf is pretty much flat or just tiny little slop for the entire run. There’s no standout session, no proper swell to get excited about. We’re looking at a long stretch of poor surf conditions that just don’t let up.
The first entry is for the morning of Saturday, August 1st at Nova Mar Bella. It’s a breakwater setup, exposed to the south. The water is sittin’ at 81°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The swell is a pathetic 0.3 ft out of the SE, with a measly period of 4 seconds. The combined wave energy is basically nothing (1). It’s glassy in the morning, which is nice, but with no swell, you’re just floating around.
This flat spell just drags on. Through the whole first week and into the second week, the swell stays tiny. Mornings are often glassy, but the afternoon winds shift onshore, ruining what little there is. We see a few afternoons with a bit of energy, like Monday, August 3rd afternoon, when the swell hits 2 ft from the E, but the period is short at 4 seconds and the wind is cross-onshore, making it choppy and messy. The energy is weak (16). It’s just not worth paddling out.
We get a few more attempts. The morning of Sunday, August 9th, the swell bumps up to 3 ft from the ENE, with a period of 4 seconds. It’s dead glassy, which is a huge positive, but the energy is still only moderate (31) and the period is short. It’ll be tiny, weak, and rolling through. Not a standout.
The rest of the run is the same story. The swell never breaks 3 ft, and the period stays short, never getting above 7 seconds. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore in the afternoons, chopping it up. For the entire 16 days, there is not a single good surf option. The forecast is a total blank. For this area, that’s just how it goes sometimes.
Keep your eyes on the charts, but for now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
