The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next 16 days at Nova Mar Bella are a tough watch. The forecast is showing a real flat spell, so don't be expecting to paddle out for anything decent. The water temp is about average for the time of year, which is no surprise.
The first real chance to even think about a wave is on Sunday, the 26th of July. The morning is looking the best of a bad bunch. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the ENE, and the wind is a light cross-offshore from the WNW. That’ll keep the surface clean. The swell energy is still weak (32), so it’s not going to be thrilling, but it’s the most promising window. The break is a breakwater setup, which might help a little with the shape, but the swell is so small, it’s really only for the beginners. The afternoon gets a bit of a bump from a longer period 1ft SSW swell with a 9-second period, but the wind turns cross-onshore, so it’ll be messy.
After that, we go into a long gap. From Monday the 27th of July right through to the 7th of August, it’s a dead zone. The heights barely reach 2ft, and most days the energy is under 15. You’ll see a few mornings with glassy or clean conditions, like the 28th of July morning with a light offshore wind, but the swell is just too weak to bother with. The 31st of July and the 1st of August mornings have a glassy surface, but again, the swell is flat. The best of that second week is maybe the 2nd of August, with a 3ft SSW swell, but the morning wind is a light cross-shore, and it’s still a poor surf day overall.
Honestly, for this 16-day window, there is no standout. If you’re desperate for a splash, the Sunday the 26th morning is your only real shout, but even then, keep your expectations on the floor. It’s a quiet period for the area.
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.
