The Lowdown
Gather 'round, folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about the 16-day outlook for Fano Sassonia. I'll be straight with you: it's a lean stretch. The forecast is packed with long gaps where there's just no surf to speak of, and when there is a pulse, it's small and weak. The water's sitting at a balmy 82°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year—a real anomaly that's over three degrees above the long-term average, so you can feel that difference as soon as you dip in.
The first real chance to wet a line doesn't come until Sunday the 13th of September. The whole first week and a bit is a write-off—days of flat, weak conditions with no energy and poor surf. You'll be looking at a solid seven-day gap from the start of the period with nothing worth paddling out for.
Sunday the 13th of September morning finally brings a little life. We've got a small NE swell rolling in at 4ft, but with a short period of just 6 seconds—so it's a weak, bumpy windswell, not a groundswell. The combined energy is still only moderate (101), so it's got some push but nothing to write home about. The wind is glassy, though, a light SSW breeze, so the surface will be clean. That's a rare treat. The break is inconsistent and exposed, with often crowds possible, so you might have some company. It's a beginner spot, but the quality is just ordinary—surfable but nothing special.
From there, the swell drops right back. Monday the 14th of September sees tiny 1ft to 1ft waves with weak energy, and by Tuesday the 15th of September, we get a short burst of 3ft to 3ft NE swell with a bit more energy (26-42), but the wind is straight onshore from the NE at 15 mph, making it messy and poor. The rest of the second week fades away into flatness again, with no recommendations for the final days.
So, the only true standout in this whole 16-day window is the glassy morning of Sunday the 13th of September. It's not a day to get hyped about—it's a small, weak swell—but if you're desperate for a paddle and clean conditions, that's your window. For the rest, it's a waiting game. The spot tends not to stay poor for long, but this run is a grim one. Even the bigger pulses on the 15th are ruined by onshore wind. If I'm honest, with the onshore wind and weak swell, that setup might be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the forecasts. They can change.
Rusty.

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 Fano Sassonia 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.
