The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get real about the surf.
Honestly, looking at this 16-day stretch, it’s a tough one. You’re going to be staring at a lot of flat, sleepy water for days on end. We’ve got the odd pulse of thigh-high slop, but nothing that’s going to get your heart racing. It’s one of those quiet spells where you might be better off checking the tide charts for a long walk on the beach rather than dragging your board out for no reason.
The only spot with any potential in the mix is Fano Sassonia. Right out of the gate, the conditions aren't doing us any favors. On Friday the 11th, we see a tiny 1ft of northeast slop with a period of only 4 seconds. That’s just a confused little wobble. The wind is light and offshore-ish, which would keep it glassy, but there’s no energy to push it along.
Over the weekend, it’s more of the same. Saturday morning is rain showers and a tiny onshore bump. By the afternoon, the wind is up a bit, making things choppy. Sunday offers a little more size on the face, but it’s still only 2-2ft of short-period junk and still messy. It feels like the ocean is just going through the motions without any real intent.
The first glimmer of something surfable appears on Monday morning the 21st. We get a clean 2ft swell from the NE, but the period is only 5 seconds, so it’s weak. The combined energy is a measly 17, which is just a whisper of power. Then the afternoon kicks up to 3ft, but the wind swings onshore and it gets lumpy. It’s a tease, but it’s not really offering a proper wave. You might catch a sloppy closeout or two if you're desperate.
Before that, there’s a stretch from the 15th to the 17th where the swell charts are completely blank. Nada. That’s a solid gap of nothing, so don't even bother waxing up. Then again, a couple of days later, the ocean decides to spit out a few dribbles on the 18th and 19th, but they're so weak they're barely worth a mention.
So, when we add it all up, the only time it looks slightly interesting is that Monday the 21st. But even then, it’s not a standout. It’s just the best of a pretty poor bunch. Keep your expectations low, and you won’t be disappointed. Trust me, there’s no hero session in this outlook.
