The Lowdown
Right, mate, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window for Circoletto (Rome) is a bit of a hard slog. We’re looking at a long stretch of flat, weak, or messy conditions, with only one real window that gets the pulse going. The entire first 12 days have nothing worth paddling out for, with the combined energy of all swells hanging around 0 to 21 (weak energy) and wind either onshore or cross-shore making a mess of the tiny bits of surf that do try to show up. It’s a real desert.
The water temperature is sitting at 83°, which is a whopping 6° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual, and you’ll be feeling that bath water.
The first sign of life comes on Wednesday, July 29th. The morning session is the standout. We’ve got a clean 5ft swell rolling in from the south, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy of all swells directed here hits 279 (moderate wave energy), and with a light cross-offshore breeze from the north-northeast, conditions will be clean. This is an advanced wave, though – at 5ft, it’s pushing into the “too big for beginners” territory, and given it’s a beach and reef setup, the short period (less than 8 seconds) means it’ll be a bit crumbly, not a proper groundswell. Still, it’s the only real surf on offer. The afternoon on the 29th gets chopped up by a strong cross-onshore wind, so forget that.
After that, the rest of the fortnight fades back into flatness and onshore junk. The morning of the 31st of July has a clean offshore wind, but there’s barely a ripple – just 0.3ft of swell. It’s a long wait for a very short window.
So, make the call for Wednesday morning, July 29th. It’s not perfect, but it’s the only game in town. Keep your expectations low, and you might have a laugh. If you’re a kite surfer, the beach setup with the stronger winds on the 27th and 28th might look more interesting than paddle surfing.
Rusty.
