The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you—this is a tough one. We’ve got a 16-day window staring us down, and for the first week and a half, it’s a ghost town out there. The forecast for Fano Sassonia is flat, or close to it, with weak, short-period wind slop that just isn’t worth paddling for. The water is currently sitting at a very unusual 84°F – that’s 6°F warmer than normal for this time of year, which is a real head-scratcher. But warm water doesn’t mean good waves.
From Saturday 8th August right through to the morning of Wednesday 19th August, it’s a dead run. You’ll see a few tiny bumps here and there—1ft, 2ft, periods of 2 to 5 seconds—but all of it is blown out by onshore or cross-onshore winds. The combined energy barely scratches double digits (39, 23, 12), which is basically nothing. There’s a string of mornings with a clean-looking offshore breeze from the WNW, but the swell is zero. It’s a cruel tease.
The first real sign of life comes on Thursday 20th August. The swell jumps to 6ft from the NNE, with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy hits 300 (moderate). But hold your horses—it’s coming in with onshore winds from the NNE at 19 mph, and later a cross-onshore. The conditions are described as poor. At that size, it’s going to be a choppy, lumpy mess, and not a beginner-friendly wave. This setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
The one true standout, and the only window worth your time, is the morning of Friday 21st August. We’ve got a drop in swell to 5ft from the NNE, still a 6-second period, with combined energy of 146 (moderate). The magic is the wind: a light offshore breeze from the SW at 3 mph. The forecast says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” but let’s be honest—that’s the best we’re getting. It’ll be clean and glassy for a few hours. The swell is still a bit short-period, so it won’t be a groundswell dream, but for a beginner spot like Fano Sassonia, it’s the only chance to get a few soft, rideable waves. Keep an eye on the tide and be there at dawn.
After that, it drops back to nothing for the rest of the 16 days. Blink and you’ll miss it.
Rusty.
