The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this outlook for the region is a tough one. We're looking at a 16-day window starting from Sunday, September 6th, and honestly, I'm not seeing much to get the stoke up. The surf here barely registers a pulse, and the conditions are often messy. It's a long stretch of flat to near-flat, broken-up waves.
Circoletto (Rome) is your only real option, and it's a spot that's already inconsistent. Don't expect a crowd, but if a wave does pop up, you might have it to yourself. The water is a scorching 83°F, which is a massive 7° warmer than normal for this time of year – feels like a bath, that's for sure.
The first real chance of anything rideable is on Sunday morning, September 6th. We're talking tiny, weak 1.0ft swell from the west with a short period of 5 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 4 – that's barely a ripple. But the wind is light offshore from the NE, so if you're a beginner on a foamie, you might catch a few bellyboard rollers. The afternoon degrades fast with onshore wind.
Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th are a total write-off. The swell drops to zero. Flat as a pancake. Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th are the same story – nothing. You could spend that time cleaning the wax off your board.
We get a tiny flicker of life on Friday morning, September 11th. The wind is light and cross-shore from the SE, and we see a 2ft swell from the SSW, period of 5 seconds. The combined energy creeps up to 27. It's still poor surf, but it's the best of a bad bunch. The afternoon gets messy with a fresh onshore breeze and a risk of thunderstorms.
The weekend of the 12th and 13th drops back to flatness. The following week, from Monday the 14th through to Monday the 21st, is the same story: tiny, weak swells rarely breaking 1ft, with periods of 3 to 9 seconds. The combined energy never gets above 21. The wind is often offshore in the mornings, which is a tease, but there's just no swell to make use of it.
The best on offer is Friday morning, September 11th, with the 2ft SSW swell and light cross-shore wind. It's not a standout, it's just the least worst option. Honestly, for the rest of the 16 days, it's a gap of flat to near-flat conditions. With such weak, short-period swell and often messy wind, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. I'd hang the board up for a bit and wait for a better forecast.
Rusty.
