The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks at Fano Sassonia are a tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of very small, weak surf with hardly any energy. The first proper chance for a wave doesn’t show up until Wednesday, September 16th, and even then it’s only just surfable. There’s a gap of about 7 days from now with nothing really worth paddling out for.
The early part of the window is a washout. Swell heights are tiny, mostly under 2 ft, with periods of 3 to 6 seconds. The combined energy is practically zero (values like 0, 1, or 6 – that’s weak). You’ll see some glassy mornings on Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th, but the swell is just too small to do anything with. It’s a good time to clean the wax off your board and check the forecast again later.
Things start to tease us on Sunday, September 13th. We get a little bump of 2 ft from the NNE, with a period of 5 seconds and light cross-offshore winds. The combined energy climbs to 27, which is still weak, but it’s a start. Monday the 14th pushes a bit higher with 3 ft from the NNE and a period of 5 seconds, energy hitting 87. It’s still poor, but you can see the ocean trying.
The one and only real standout – and I’m using that word loosely – is Wednesday, September 16th, morning. The swell is 5 ft from the NNE, period of 6 seconds, and the wind is light and cross-offshore from the west. The combined energy is 164 (moderate). It’s described as “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” The water temp is about average for the time of year. For a beginner spot like this, that 5 ft is getting close to the upper limit, but in the morning with clean conditions, it’s your best shot. The afternoon turns onshore and messy, so get there early.
Thursday, September 17th, morning also looks glassy with 3 ft and 6 seconds from the NNE, energy at 116. It’s another clean window, but smaller. After that, it fades back into the tiny stuff for the rest of the run.
So, bottom line: if you’re desperate for a paddle, aim for the morning of Wednesday the 16th or Thursday the 17th. The rest of the 16 days is mostly a write-off for decent waves. It’s a quiet period for this area.
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.
