The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Fano Sassonia. To be straight with you, it’s a pretty quiet outlook. The waves are tiny or non-existent for most of the 16-day window, so we’re looking at a long, drawn-out lull. There’s nothing that really gets the heart pumping here.
It starts off on Friday the 21st of August with a tiny 2ft swell from the east, period a short 6 seconds. The combined energy is weak (17). The wind is a cross-off, so it’s not all bad, but the surf quality is poor. This little bump fades fast. Saturday the 22nd drops to 1ft, and Sunday the 23rd only manages 2ft to 2ft, but with onshore winds, it’s messy. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
Monday the 24th has a bit of a pulse, with the swell nudging up to 2ft from the NNE, period still short at 5 seconds. The energy is still weak (29). It’s cross-off in the morning, so the shape might be okay, but it's nothing to write home about. After that, it fizzles out completely. We’ve got a long stretch of flat, glassy mornings from Wednesday the 26th right through the end of August.
There’s a ghost of a chance on Friday the 28th with a 1ft wave, and Saturday the 29th brings a 0.7ft ripple with a light offshore, but the energy is barely registering (1 to 3). We’re talking about waves you could count on one hand. The whole first week of September is more of the same: flat spells and tiny, wind-affected dribbles.
The only faint glimmer comes on Thursday the 4th of September. The morning looks glassy with small 2ft swell from the NE, period still short at 4 seconds. Again, it’s a tiny wave, but that morning glass might make it rideable for a beginner on a foamie. But don’t kid yourself, there’s no standout here. This break is inconsistent and frankly, the entire 16-day forecast is a write-off for any meaningful surf. That’s the reality of this spot. We’ll have to wait for the next weather system to change things up.
