The Lowdown
Right, let's have a look at what's happening at Fano Sassonia. I'll be honest with you, straight up: it's a pretty bleak run of conditions we've got ahead of us. We're looking at a 16-day window, and the surf is going to be a real struggle for most of it.
There's no swell to speak of for the first part of the period. We've got a long blank stretch beginning now, with nothing rideable until Wednesday, the 16th of July, and even then it's tiny. The water is bang on average for the time of year, sitting at 78°F, which is a touch warmer than normal.
The pattern is basically a long, drawn-out spell of weak, short-period windswell that just can't get its act together. The winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the energy just isn't there.
Let's walk through it. On the afternoon of Wednesday the 15th, we're looking at a tiny 1ft of slop from the NE with a period of just 2 seconds. That's barely a ripple, and it's blown out by a 12 mph onshore breeze. Energy is at a pathetic 1. You'd be wasting your time.
Thursday the 16th is a write-off in the morning with nothing, and the afternoon serves up more of the same 1ft junk with a 3-second period and cross-onshore wind.
Friday morning the 17th is glassy, which is a tease because the swell is only 0.3ft. It's like a lake. The afternoon is back to choppy, onshore trash.
We get a little bump on Monday the 21st. The Tuesday morning session on the 22nd shows the best swell we'll see: 4ft from the NNE with a 6-second period. The energy finally gets into triple digits at 103. But it's cross-shore and the wind is a moderate 12 mph, so it's going to be messy and choppy. It's not a stand-out, but if you were desperate, that Tuesday morning is the most surfable thing on offer, with a bigger 5ft in the afternoon but with more cross-onshore chop.
After that, it all fades away again. From Wednesday the 23rd all the way through to the end of the month on the 30th, we're looking at another long gap of days with zero surf or tiny, insignificant waves.
Honestly, the whole setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer if the wind got right, but for us, it's a tough outlook. The best description is a long, drawn-out dud.

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.
