The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at the local forecast for Fano Sassonia.
Honestly, I'm a bit choked. We're looking at a pretty quiet 16-day window, and to be blunt, there's nothing on the table that I'd even call a proper surf. The entire outlook is a string of "poor surf conditions" from start to finish. For a spot that's already inconsistent, this is a proper dry spell.
The first week is basically a write-off. From this Friday afternoon, August 28th, right through until the morning of Thursday, September 3rd, we're seeing either flat calm (0 energy) or tiny, weak windswell. The water temps are notable though – sitting around 82°F which is a solid 5°F warmer than normal for this time of year, so it's much warmer than usual. But warm water doesn't make waves.
The only flicker of something happens on the afternoon of Thursday, September 3rd. We see a small spike in energy (48) with a 3ft swell from the NNE, but the wind is blowing a moderate cross-onshore at 16 mph, making it choppy. That's not a surf, that's a washing machine. It then drops straight back down again. For the next week, from September 4th to the 12th, it's the same story: tiny pulses of swell in the 0.7ft to 2ft range with energy readings barely reaching double digits. A few mornings, like September 5th, 9th, and 12th, look clean with light offshore or glassy winds, but there's simply no swell to ride. It's flat and clean, which is about as frustrating as it gets.
So, there are no standouts, no 'one to watch'. If you absolutely had to get wet, the cleanest conditions with the most energy (such as it is) would be the morning of Thursday, September 10th (1.0ft from the E with light offshore wind) or the morning of Friday, September 11th (2ft from the E with a clean, cross-off breeze). But honestly, mate, you'd be better off waiting for the next proper swell. For an exposed, inconsistent beach break like this, a blank run this long is a bit of a bummer, but not unheard of.

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.
