Well, grab a coffee and settle in, 'cause I gotta level with you straight up—the next couple of weeks around here (Adriatic Sea) are looking pretty grim for surfing. To be brutally honest, there isn't a single standout session in the whole 16-day window. The forecast shows a long stretch of flat or near-flat conditions with wonky winds, so don't expect any magic.
The first real chance of a pulse doesn't show until the morning of July 14th, and even then it is small. Through the first week of July, we've got a whole lot of nothing. On the morning of the 6th, it's dead flat with just a 0.7 ft ripple from the east. That glassy water looks tempting, but there's no energy to surf. Tuesday the 7th and Wednesday the 8th are completely flat with zero combined swell energy (0). Thursday the 9th morning brings a tiny 1 ft NE swell with a combined energy of just 5—weak as dishwater. Friday the 10th through Sunday the 13th are basically flat again, with maybe a wee 1.0 ft on the Sunday afternoon.
Then, we finally get a tiny spike on Tuesday July 14th. The morning starts with a 2 ft ENE swell (period 5 seconds) and clean cross-offshore winds from the WNW, giving us a combined energy of 26. It's not much, but it's the cleanest we've seen. The afternoon gets a bit bigger at 3 ft from the NE but it turns onshore with a fresh breeze from the NE, so it'll be lumpy and poor. The combined energy rises to 38, but the quality drops.
The rest of the week stays small. Wednesday July 15th has a 1 ft ENE swell with clean morning winds again, but the energy is just 7. Thursday the 16th is flat again.
Looking way out, the second week offers a tiny glimmer. On Monday July 20th, we get a 2 ft NE swell in the morning (combined energy 31) but with cross-onshore rain showers—not ideal. Tuesday July 21st morning actually looks like the best of a bad bunch: offshore winds from the SW, a 3 ft NE swell (period 5 seconds), and a combined energy of 37. The afternoon cleans up too with a cross-offshore SSE breeze and a 3 ft NE swell (combined energy 39). You could probably find a knee-high wave at Fano Lido (Spiaggia di Ponente), but don't expect much. This spot is inconsistent and rarely breaks with any real quality. The water temperature is sitting at 82°F, which is 6°F warmer than normal—very unusual for the time of year.
Honestly, with the surf being this weak for so long and onshore winds blowing most afternoons, if you really need to get wet, the setup might actually be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Paddlers, you're better off waiting for a proper swell. But hey, forecasts change, and it tends not to stay this poor forever. Keep an eye on it.
