The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, same story, different numbers. Looking at the whole 16-day stretch for Fano Sassonia, it’s a rough one. There aren’t any good surf days to recommend. It’s mostly flat or tiny, weak swell with short periods and messy wind. A long, empty run from the start well into early September.
Starting Thursday the 20th, the water is a balmy 84°F – way warmer than average for this time of year. But that’s the only highlight. The wave is a pathetic 0.7ft from the ESE, with a period of just 4 seconds. Combined energy is a measly 1 – barely a ripple. Light offshore wind in the morning keeps it clean, but it’s not surf. This repeats through Friday the 21st and Saturday the 22nd. Even with clean offshore wind on Friday afternoon at 22 mph, the swell is only 1ft.
Sunday the 23rd afternoon bumps up a bit to 2ft from the NE, with energy at 24, but the period is short at 5 seconds and the wind is onshore. Choppy and full of crumble. Monday the 24th is similar – 2ft NE swell, onshore wind. Tuesday the 25th through to Thursday the 28th morning? Totally flat. Zero wave height. Some mornings are glassy, like Thursday the 27th morning, but there’s nothing to surf. Friday the 28th morning shows a tiny 1ft ESE swell with a 4-second period and a combined energy of 4 – glassy, but useless. The afternoon gets messy.
It stays dead until Thursday the 3rd of September. That morning has 2ft from the NE with a 5-second period and cross-onshore wind. The afternoon brings the biggest swell of the whole forecast: 4ft from the NE, 6-second period, with combined energy hitting 92. But it’s onshore and the report still says "poor surf conditions." That’s the best there is, and it’s not good. For a beach break like Fano Sassonia that needs clean wind and a specific ESE direction, most of the swell is coming in wrong. This spot is inconsistent and often has a crowd, so there’s no reason to bother.
For this area, a long flat spell like this is pretty normal. It usually won’t stay poor forever, but right now? Don’t bother. If you can, find a different stretch of coast.
Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Fano Sassonia can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
