Well, folks, Rusty here. Let me tell you, it's a bit of a quiet spell we're looking at for Ancona over the next couple of weeks. The forecast is pretty bare, so let’s get into it.
The pattern for the whole 16-day period is sadly flat. We've got a couple of small pulses trying to show up in the first few days, but they are just not doing anything for us. There is a gap of about a week with zero surf on offer from the 6th of July right through to the 12th of July, where we finally see a tiny bump of energy.
The best of a bad bunch, and I'm stretching here, is Saturday morning, the 4th of July at Ancona point. We'll see a small 4ft swell sneaking in from the ENE, but the period is a weak 6 seconds, so it'll be weak and junky. The combined swell energy is moderate at best (153), so don't expect any punch. The water temp is about average for this time of year. The wind is a cross-shore, blowing at 9 mph, which will leave a bit of crinkle on the surface, nothing too crazy. It's a fairly consistent point break that works on an ESE swell, so the ENE direction isn't ideal. The crowds here can be a factor sometimes, but on a day this small, you might have it to yourself. Honestly, this is more of a beginner's chance to get wet than a proper surf session.
Beyond that, the rest of the first week is a write-off. Sunday morning the 5th might look clean with light cross-offshore winds, but the swell is a pathetic 0.7ft – not worth paddling for. Then we hit that dead zone from the 6th right through to the 12th of July with nothing.
There is a tiny, tiny blip on the radar late on Sunday the 12th of July and Monday the 13th of July, with a 1.0ft and 0.7ft swell. But with periods of 3 seconds, it's just wind chop. The winds are onshore and choppy, so don't even bother.
For the rest of the second week, from the 14th of July to the 18th, it's the same story: flat, clean skies, but zero swell. It's a complete blank run for this area, which is more normal than you'd hope for in summer. The setup would be a better bet for a paddleboard than a surfboard, or if it ever got windy enough, a kite would be more fun.
So, no standouts here. A long, flat spell with nothing to get excited about.

Information about the Ancona Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Ancona provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Ancona can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Ancona 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 (Ancona) 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 Ancona 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.
Ancona is 5 km (3 miles) from the city of Pinocchio di Ancona. If you plan a holiday in Adriatic - Italy, look for hotels and other accommodation in Pinocchio di Ancona. Pinocchio di Ancona has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
