The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer for this stretch of coast.
Truth be told, it’s a pretty bleak outlook for the next 16 days. We’re looking at a long, long stretch of flat or near-flat conditions, with barely a ripple worth paddling for. The first real hint of anything surfable doesn't show up until around Wednesday the 2nd of September, and even then it’s nothing to write home about.
Let’s start with what we’ve got. The first few days are a write-off. From the 22nd of August right through to the end of the month, it’s mostly flat or tiny, messy waves with onshore or cross winds that aren’t doing us any favours. The water temperature at Fano Sassonia is sitting at 84°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year (an anomaly of 6°F), so you’ll be swimming in a bath, but that’s about the only positive.
There is a brief moment on the morning of Thursday the 3rd of September that might be worth a look. Swell comes in at around 4ft from the ENE, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy hits 144, which is moderate, and we’ve got light cross-offshore winds from the WNW making for clean conditions. It’s surfable but very ordinary. Not a standout, but it’s the closest thing we get to a session. That afternoon, though, the wind picks up and a risk of thunderstorms rolls in, so get out early.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums. The rest of the forecast is tiny waist-high slop or flat spells with offshore winds that are only good for a tan. Nothing builds into anything substantial.
There are no true standouts here. If you’re desperate, the morning of the 3rd is your best bet for a clean but weak wave. Otherwise, leave the boards in the shed.

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.
