The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. We’ve got a 16-day window for Circoletto (Rome), and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this stretch is a tough one. The surf is nearly non-existent. There’s a long gap of flat, poor conditions right from the start. We’re looking at a big blank run for the first few days, with only tiny, weak pulses showing up later.
The water is a real standout though – at 82°F, that’s a whopping 7°F warmer than usual for this time of year. It’s like bathwater out there, very unusual.
The first real chance to get wet isn’t until Saturday the 12th of September. Wednesday morning the 11th has a brief moment of glassy conditions, but the swell is a weak 3ft from the west with a short period of 5 seconds – it’s not doing much, and the combined energy is only 53 (weak). Not worth paddling out for.
Saturday the 12th (morning) is the best we’ve got in the whole outlook. Early, you’ll find a clean 3ft swell from the WSW with a 6-second period and a gentle offshore wind from the NNE. The combined energy is 80 (still weak), but it’s surfable. The break is a beach and reef setup, so it’s inconsistent and rarely breaks – you’ll have to be patient. It’s also an advanced spot, so keep that in mind. The wind is clean, and it’s the only real window of quality. That afternoon, it turns to junk.
Sunday the 20th (morning) is the other half-decent window, though it’s a week and a half away, so it’s less certain. We’re looking at a clean 3ft swell from the SSW with a 7-second period, and a light offshore wind from the NNE. The combined energy is 79 (weak again), but it’s clean. The swell direction of SSW is right on the money for this spot’s optimum. Again, it’s inconsistent and rarely breaks, and crowds are possible here. The afternoon goes cross-onshore and choppy.
Outside of those two morning slots, it’s a long wait of flat, tiny, or choppy junk. A few days have absolute zeros. The combined energy never gets past 80, so the wave energy is weak across the board. If you’re not an advanced surfer, the 3ft swell on the 12th is manageable, but the 3ft on the 20th is also fine. Nothing here gets over 5ft, so it’s not too big for anyone.
Honestly, for a spot that’s inconsistent and exposed, the forecast is poor. It’s a blank run that’s pretty normal for this area. Keep an eye on it, forecasts can change, but right now, I’d pick the morning of Saturday the 12th.
Rusty.
