The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you about Fano Sassonia. Looking at the whole 16-day run, it’s a pretty flat and quiet stretch, especially for the first week and a half. There’s really nothing to get excited about until later on. The water temperature is sitting at 82°, which is a massive 8° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s very unusual, so the water will feel like a bath.
We start off with a long, quiet gap. From Sunday the 13th right through to the morning of Monday the 23rd of September, it’s pretty much a bust. There’s tiny swell here and there, but it’s all small, weak, and the wind is usually messy. The combined wave energy barely gets into double digits, so you’re looking at flat or near-flat conditions.
The first real sign of life comes on Wednesday morning the 23rd of September. The swell finally shows up at 4ft from the NE, with a period of 6 seconds. That’s a short-period windswell, but the combined energy climbs to 173 (moderate). The wind is cross-offshore from the WNW at 9 mph, which will keep things clean. The report says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” so don’t expect perfection. It’s a beginner-friendly size though.
Then there’s another lull. The next and last chance is on Sunday morning the 27th of September. The swell bumps up a touch to 5ft from the NNE, period still short at 7 seconds, and the combined energy is 175 (moderate). The wind is offshore from the SW at 6 mph, which is the best wind we see in the whole forecast – that’s a big positive for clean faces. Again, the notes say “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.”
So the only two mornings that look worthwhile are the 23rd and the 27th of September, with the 27th having the better wind. The waves are small, the period is short, and the quality is nothing special, but if you’re desperate for a paddle, those are your windows.
Rusty.

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.
