Table - best surf conditions forecast for Ancona over the next 16 days.
G’day, Rusty here. I’ll level with ya – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for Ancona. There's no real swell on offer, and most of what we get is tiny, junky windswell. The first proper chance to get wet isn't until Saturday the 11th, and even then it's nothing to write home about. After that, there are long gaps with nothing at all, just a few almost-waves here and there.
Let’s start with Saturday the 11th. Early morning there’s a small 2ft wave from the ESE, and the wind is glassy – dead calm. That’s about as good as it gets for this spot in the forecast. Ancona is a point break, exposes to the ESE, and the optimum swell direction is ESE, so at least the direction is on the money. The combined energy is weak, only 28 (weak), and the period is a short 5 seconds, so waves will be soft and weak. The water temp is about average for this time of year. Sunday the 12th morning sees a tiny 1ft cross-shore, nothing special. The rest of the week is mostly flat or closeout conditions.
Jumping to Saturday the 18th, we get a small 1ft from the ESE with a light offshore breeze from the WSW – that’s the standout window, but only if you’re desperate for a paddle. The combined energy is still a measly 4 (weak). After that, look to Tuesday the 21st morning and Wednesday the 22nd morning: both have 0.7ft of ESE swell and clean offshore winds, but they’re so small you’ll be floating on a log. Wednesday the 22nd has a fresh offshore breeze of 19 mph from the WSW, so if you’ve got a kite, the strong wind and tiny waves might be more interesting for a kite session than a paddle. Thursday the 23rd morning is glassy but with only 0.7ft, combined energy of 3 (weak).
Honestly, there’s no standout quality surf in the whole 16-day window. The best you can say is Saturday the 11th morning offers the most size and glassy conditions, but it’s tiny and weak. For the rest, it’s mostly flat or too chopped up. Even a point break needs a bit of juice, and this isn’t it.
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.
