The Lowdown
Alright, I’m looking at the next 16 days for the Adriatic, and honestly, it’s a tough stretch. The forecast is a flat spell with tiny, weak waves that are barely surfable. We’re talking about the kind of window where you’d have to be desperate to paddle out. The best you can hope for is a few sessions of knee-high slop, and even then, the wind will often be working against you.
Let’s break it down. Starting Monday the 7th, we have a bit of 1ft swell from the NE, but the period is a short, weak 4 seconds. The combined energy is just 4. That’s barely a ripple. The wind is light and cross-off in the morning, so it’s clean, but there’s just no power. By the afternoon, the wind swings onshore, making it messy.
Then we hit a dead zone. From Tuesday the 8th through Wednesday the 9th, there’s no swell at all. Zilch. Zero. The sea will be flat. This is a two-day gap with no surf on offer.
Thursday the 10th sees a tiny pulse again, 1ft from the NW with a 4-second period (energy 6), but the wind is onshore and choppy. Not worth the drive.
Friday the 11th is a bit better. The morning shows 2ft from the ENE, period still just 5 seconds, but the combined energy bumps to 23. It’s still weak, but it’s the most energy we’ll see for a while. The wind is light and cross-shore, so it’s not a total washout. The afternoon has a similar 2ft but with a risk of thunderstorms and onshore wind.
The weekend is more of the same. Saturday the 12th peaks at 3ft from the NNE in the afternoon with a 6-second period (energy 39), but it’s choppy. Sunday the 13th has a clean morning with 2ft from the NNE but the energy is lower at 14.
The first week of the outlook is a real struggle. The absolute best call is Friday morning, the 11th of September, at Fano Sassonia. The swell is only 2ft from the ENE, but it’s the most consistent bump we get, and the light cross-shore wind will keep it from being a complete mess. It’s a beginner spot and it’s inconsistent, so expect long waits and waves that are only really fun on a longboard or a foamie. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
After the first few days, the second week is largely a write-off. From Monday the 14th through Tuesday the 22nd, the swell stays tiny with combined energy mostly under 5. The wind is a mess of onshore and cross-onshore breezes, making the water choppy. There’s a brief clean window on Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th with a 0.6ft to 1ft swell and offshore wind, but the waves are so small they’re hardly breaking. The gap between the 16th and the 18th is another multi-day flat spell.
Honestly, for the whole forecast, this is a kite-surfing setup more than a paddle-surfing one. If you’re determined to get wet, drag the longboard out for Friday morning the 11th or the super-small clean mornings on the 19th or 20th. Otherwise, give it a miss.
