The Lowdown
Right, let’s be honest with you. I’ve looked at the next couple of weeks for Nova Mar Bella, and it’s a bit of a flat spell we’re in. The swell is tiny, the energy is weak, and honestly, it’s going to be a struggle to find anything worth paddling out for. The water’s 82.8°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a thick suit.
The first real chance of anything comes on Sunday the 17th. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the east, with a short period of 4 seconds, and there’s a little more energy in the water (29). But the wind is cross-onshore and choppy, so it’s going to be messy. It’s not great, but it’s the best we see for a while. The following Tuesday, the 19th, has a bit of size too, 2.3ft from the ESE, but the wind is onshore again, so expect some chop.
Honestly, the standout morning looks like Wednesday the 20th. It’s glassy, with a light offshore wind, and there’s a 1.6ft south-east swell (18 energy). It’s small, but clean and contestable. For a breakwater spot like this, that’s about as good as it gets in this run. The swell direction from the SE is right in the sweet spot for this place.
The very end of the period, around the 24th, shows a tiny 0.3ft swell, but it’s glassy again. It’s not going to be breaking with any power. All in all, it’s a long, flat stretch. The waves are small, the periods are short and weak, and there’s no real punch to anything. If you’re desperate for a splash, the 20th is your best bet, but manage your expectations. This is a lean time for the beach.

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.
