The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at the local stretch over the next couple weeks. To be straight with you, it's a pretty flat and quiet period ahead, so we're going to be scratching for any kind of rideable bump.
The overall pattern is one of very low energy, with most days offering tiny to non-existent surf. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year, nothing out of the ordinary.
We start off this Sunday, the 13th, with almost nothing on offer. A tiny 0.6ft ENE windswell with a short period of 4 seconds makes for a poor surf outlook. The north wind is light and glassy in the morning, but with that little swell, it's barely a ripple.
We then hit a real dry spell. From Monday the 14th right through Friday the 27th of September, the surf is consistently rated as poor with tiny heights or no waves at all. The energy levels are extremely low, often in the single digits or low teens. For example, the combined energy tops out at just 29 on the 16th and 35 on the 18th, but even those are still listed as poor conditions. It's a long gap of flatness, about two weeks of very little to nothing.
The one tiny glimmer comes right at the end of the outlook. On Saturday the 26th of September morning, we finally see something that's described as "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." The swell picks up to 3ft from the east with a period of 7 seconds and the combined energy hits 74, which is still very weak. The wind is light and variable from the southeast, leaving it glassy. For the most desperate among us, there might be a knee-high wave to push around.
That’s the only window in the whole 16 days that offers anything close to a surf. It's a long, flat stretch.

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.
