The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's be real about this stretch on the Adriatic, because I'm not seeing much to get excited about.
Look, this is a tough run for Fano Sassonia. We’re looking at a 16-day window, and honestly, the first few days are a write-off. There’s a big gap of nothing happening from the start until we get a hint of something on the 10th of September. The water is sitting at 82° right now, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year, so at least it’ll be a nice bath if you’re just floating around.
The only time this spot even tries to wake up is on the afternoon of Thursday, the 10th of September. We’ve got a tiny 3ft swell from the east with a period of just 5 seconds – that’s weak, short-period wind swell, not the kind of stuff that makes you skip work. The combined energy is a measly 44, so it’s barely there. The wind is light and cross-offshore, which will keep the surface clean, but the waves are just "surfable but very ordinary." It’s a beginner wave at best, and it’s inconsistent, so you’ll be waiting around a lot. It's not a standout, it's just the only option that isn't completely flat.
Then on Friday morning, the 11th of September, the swell bumps up a touch to 4ft from the NNE, with a period of 6 seconds and energy of 133, so it’s got a bit more push. But the wind is cross-shore, which puts a bit of a crinkle on the face. It’s still not great surf, and it’s a very short window before it drops again.
After that, it’s back to nothing. We’re looking at a long, flat run from the 12th of September all the way to the end of the window on the 20th. There are a few days with a tiny ripple, but nothing worth paddling out for. This is what happens here – a blank run is pretty normal. The forecasts can change, but right now, I’d hang the board up and find something else to do.

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.
