The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get real about what’s on the table for Fano Sassonia over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window looks like a write-off for any decent surf. The first day with any swell at all is Tuesday the 21st, but it’s a tiny 2 ft from the NE with a short, weak 4-second period, and a fresh onshore wind from the ENE at 18 mph. The combined wave energy is a measly 8, so there’s just no power in the water. That’s not surf, that’s just bump and chop.
We roll into Wednesday the 22nd with a bit more height – 3 ft to 3 ft – but the wind is cross-on or onshore, keeping things messy. The energy creeps up to 66 by Wednesday afternoon, but it’s still short-period, wind-affected slop. Not worth paddling out for.
Thursday the 23rd morning is clean with a light cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is a pathetic 0.7 ft – essentially flat. The rest of the week is a sad story of tiny waves, poor wind, and generally poor surf conditions. Friday the 24th through Saturday the 25th? More of the same: 3 ft if you’re lucky, but onshore or cross-shore winds wrecking any chance of a clean face.
The one small glimmer comes on the morning of Tuesday the 29th of July. We get glassy conditions with a light southerly breeze, and a little 3 ft swell from the NNE with a 5-second period. The energy is 57, which is weak, and the report says it’s “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” That’s the best this spot has to offer, and it’s barely a ripple. The water temperature is a very unusual 81°, which is 4° warmer than average for this time of year – feels like bathwater, but that doesn’t help the waves.
After that, the whole first week of August just dries up completely. From the 1st through the 5th, there’s zero swell for most of the days, and the few tiny pulses that pop up are ruined by onshore winds. It’s a long, flat gap of several days with nothing to recommend. This is a classic Adriatic summer flat spell.
Don’t waste your time trying to make a session out of this. It’s a blank run. Sometimes that’s just the way the summer goes around here. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the boards at home.
Rusty.
