The Lowdown
Alright, this is a tough one to call. Let's be real, for the next couple of weeks, Fano Sassonia is going to be a frustrating place to be a surfer. The forecast is almost completely flat, with only tiny, weak pulses of energy coming through. The water is sitting at a very warm 84°F, which is a full 5°F above the norm for this time of year – a real anomaly that makes it feel more like a swimming pool than the Adriatic.
We're looking at a long, dry spell starting now. The first bit of swell worth mentioning doesn't show up until the afternoon of Friday the 21st of August. You'll see a tiny 1ft bump from the ESE, but with a short period of 5 seconds, the combined energy is a measly 9. It's not going to do much. The wind is offshore from the SSW at 22 mph, which would be a good thing if there was any wave to hold up. It's a big "poor surf conditions" call.
Saturday the 22nd is even smaller, with a 1.0ft ESE swell in the morning under a light offshore. The energy drops to 5. By afternoon, the wind swings onshore and the swell is gone. The rest of August and the first week of September is a total write-off. From the 23rd through to the 31st, we see heights bouncing between nothing and a pathetic 2ft, with the combined energy rarely cracking 28. The wind is all over the place, but there's just no push from the ocean.
Things get a little confusing on the 24th of August. Monday morning brings a 2ft NNE swell, the biggest we'll see, with a period of 5 seconds giving us a combined energy of 28. The wind is light and cross-off from the WNW, cleaning things up. But the swell is still tiny and weak, and the consistency is listed as "inconsistent." It's a tease, not a session.
The spot is a beginner-level break, so you don't need much power, but you do need *something*. Because it's inconsistent, and this run of poor conditions is so long, I'd say it's a good time to check the forecast for the wind and maybe just go for a body surf. The setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on those rare days when the wind is up and the water is flat.
There's a hint of a pulse around the 1st and 2nd of September, with a few 0.7ft readings under glassy conditions, but it's still "poor surf conditions." The reality is, there is no good option on the table in this 16-day window. It's a blank run, and for this area, that's just how it goes sometimes. You can't force it.
