The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the Savona stretch. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a lean run.
We’re looking at a long, quiet spell that runs almost the whole way through. There’s nothing worth paddling out for from Monday the 17th of August right through until the morning of Tuesday the 26th of August. That’s over a week of flat or tiny, messy conditions. The water temperature is sitting at 83°F which is a solid 7°F warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual, bathwater stuff, but no surf to enjoy it in.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on the morning of Wednesday the 26th of August at Acque-Calde (Savona). We finally get a pulse of waist-high swell, around 3ft pushing in from the SSW with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is still weak though, at just 75. What saves it is a light offshore breeze from the NW, keeping the surface clean. It’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary – not a standout by any stretch. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, fairly consistent, but expect crowds sometimes. That’s the best we get in this outlook.
After that blink-and-you’ll-miss-it window, things drop straight back off into near-flatness and poor conditions for the rest of the period. There’s a little bump of 3ft from the SE on the afternoon of Monday the 31st of August, but with onshore wind and barely any energy (73), it’s not worth getting excited about. A couple of mornings into September do offer some offshore wind and small, weak swell, but nothing that’ll get your heart racing.
Bottom line: there’s one half-decent morning on the 26th, but otherwise, this is a real desert stretch. On the bright side, it tends not to stay this poor forever, and forecasts can change. Let’s hope the next run brings something real.
Rusty.
