The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s call it like it is: the next two weeks at Fano Sassonia are a struggle. There’s a long dry spell, then one morning that might just be worth a look, but it’s nothing to write home about. The water is 78°, which is about 1° warmer than average for this time of year, so nothing too crazy.
The only real mention of surf comes on Monday, 27th July. The morning shows a 5ft NE swell, but the period is only 6 seconds – that’s short and weak. The combined energy is 179 (moderate), and the wind is glassy. It’s surfable, but the report says “very ordinary conditions.” The break is inconsistent and exposed, so you’ll be scratching for a ride. It’s beginner-friendly in size, but don’t expect anything special.
Before that, from now through the 26th, it’s basically flat or a mess. You’ve got days of zero swell, or tiny onshore slop with strong winds that make it better for kite surfing than paddling. The 24th shows a 5ft NE swell, but it’s got a 6-second period and a 10 km/h cross-onshore wind, so it’s lumpy and unappealing. The energy hits 170 (moderate), but the quality is poor.
After the 27th, it’s back to nothing. The 28th morning has a tiny 2ft NE swell with glassy winds, but it’s so small it’s barely a ripple. The rest of the week into August is flat or blown out, with clean mornings but no swell to back them up.
So, the only real option is Monday, 27th July morning. It’s small, weak, and the spot is inconsistent, but it’s all we’ve got. For an area that’s often a gamble, this kind of quiet run is pretty normal. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.

Information about the Fano Sassonia Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Fano Sassonia provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Fano Sassonia can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Fano Sassonia surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Fano Sassonia) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
