The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch for the local stretch. We’re looking at Nova Mar Bella, and for the next 16 days, there’s just nothing that’s going to get a surfer out of bed. The whole period is a bust. We’ve got a massive gap right from the start, with no decent surf on offer.
The forecast kicks off Sunday, August 2nd, with a flat, glassy morning. The water’s sitting at 82°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s the only highlight. The combined wave energy is zero (0), and it’s just not happening.
Monday the 3rd sees a tiny 1.0ft to 2ft windswell from the east, but with a short, weak period of 4 seconds and a cross-shore to cross-onshore breeze, it’s going to be tiny and choppy. The energy is weak (11), and it’s a no-go.
The rest of the first week and into the second is more of the same. We see a few glassy mornings with flat calm conditions, and a few afternoons with a little bump, but the swell is either non-existent or so small (0.3ft to 1ft) and short-period that it’s not worth the paddle. The energy readings stay in the single digits, with the highest being a paltry 13 on the afternoon of August 15th. Even the brief offshore winds on Tuesday morning, August 11th, and Friday morning, August 14th, can’t save it because there’s no swell to groom.
The combined energy finally hits a moderate level (24 and 28) on the morning and afternoon of Sunday, August 16th, with a 2ft to 3ft swell from the southeast and east. But with a period of just 4 to 5 seconds and a cross-shore breeze in the afternoon, it’s just a messy, weak windswell. The best chance is the morning of the 16th with a cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is still too small and weak to be any fun.
This is a long, blank run. For a spot like Nova Mar Bella, a breakwater that’s fairly consistent, this is a rare dry spell. The forecasts can change, and it won’t stay this poor forever, but for now, leave the boards in the car. Not a single standout day in the whole 16-day window.

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.
