The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be honest right up front – this is a tough one for the next couple of weeks. We’re looking at a proper flat spell.

Straight off the bat, there’s absolutely nothing doing for the first ten days. From the 2nd of August all the way through to the morning of the 12th of August, it’s dead. The swell energy is a big fat zero for most of that time, and the few tiny bumps we get – a 0.7ft on the 2nd afternoon, a 1ft on the 7th afternoon – are in the wrong wind or just too weak to bother with. It’s a long, quiet run.

Finally, on the Wednesday morning of the 12th of August, we see a bit of life. The swell bumps up to 4ft from the North, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy gets up to a weak 77, but the wind is a fresh cross-shore from the NW at 22 mph. That’s going to create lumpy, messy conditions. It’s just not clean enough for a good paddle. With those waves and that wind, honestly, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

The next morning, the 13th of August, the swell drops back to 1ft from the NNE with a period of 4 seconds. The energy is only 6. The wind is light from the NW, which is a cross-shore. It might be surfable for a learner on a foamie, but it’s not going to win any awards.

So, looking at the whole 16-day window, there are no standouts. When you get a run this long with nearly no swell and no good conditions lining up, you just have to accept it’s a blank run for the area. The forecasts can change, but right now, it’s best to keep the board in the car for another day.

Rusty.

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.
