Alright folks, let’s get into it. Old Rusty here, looking at the full picture for Ancona over the next couple of weeks. And straight up, I gotta tell ya, it’s a tough stretch. The calendar shows nothing but flat, weak, or sloppy conditions all the way through Monday the 13th of July. That’s a solid gap of nearly a week with absolutely no surf worth paddling out for.
We finally see some movement on Monday the 13th of July with a tiny little 2ft pulse from the north, period of only 4 seconds, so total combined energy is weak as it gets (7). The wind is cross-off in the morning, keeping it clean, but with such short period (8 seconds or less), you’re looking at weak, crumbly waves that barely stand up. For beginners? There’s literally nothing to ride. This little bump fizzles out fast, leaving us flat and choppy again until Monday the 20th of July.
Now, the one and only true standout in this whole 16-day window lands on Monday the 20th of July in the afternoon. The sea finally shows a little life. Swell picks up to a clean 3ft from the north-northeast with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 67, which is still moderate but the best we’ve seen by a mile. Best of all? The wind goes glassy, dead calm. That means the surface will be silky smooth at Ancona. This is a point break, so the long period groundswells don't apply here – it’s short-period windswell, but with glassy conditions and that size, it will offer some fun, user-friendly waves. Definitely one for the longboard or a fun fish. Keep in mind it’s a beginner-friendly spot to begin with, and on Monday afternoon with no wind, the crowds are *sometimes* an issue, so you might have some company, but it’ll be worth it.
Apart from that single afternoon, the rest of the forecast is a write-off. There’s a small pulse on Tuesday the 21st of July morning with 2ft from the north and a clean offshore breeze, but the energy is pathetic (9). After that, it’s back to flat or choppy junk. For an exposed point like Ancona, this is a rough run.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
