The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get this out there. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for us. There are long stretches of flat, junk conditions, and we’re not going to see any real, proper swell for a while. We’ve got a solid gap from now until the 14th where there is just nothing worth paddling out for. Even then, it’s going to be small and weak.
The main issue is that Fano Sassonia is exposed to the east-southeast, but we’re stuck with these short-period, windswell pulses from the north-northeast. They just don’t have the energy to wrap in or build into anything. We're looking at combined swell energies mostly in the low single digits to the 30s and 40s — that’s weak, disorganized energy, nothing that will get your heart racing. We’ve got some clean windows, like Thursday the 14th morning with light offshore winds, but the swell is a dribbly 2ft at 5 seconds. It’s surfable for a complete beginner on a foamie, but it’s pretty ordinary. The water temps are right about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The 24th and 25th are the only things on the horizon that even look like a proper surf, but we are deep in the second week so treat this with caution. On Monday the 24th, early morning goes glassy with light rain showers and a small pulse of 2ft. That’s not huge, but it’s clean, and about the best we'll see. Then on Tuesday the 25th, there’s a slightly better bump of 4ft at 6 seconds, but the energy is still weak (74). It’s a promise, not a guarantee.
Honestly, if you have a kiteboard, you might get more out of this stretch than a surfboard. The wind is often onshore or cross-onshore, which will keep the ocean bumpy and messy. For the pure surfer, the best bet is to wait out the week and see if anything can stack on top of that little pulse for the 25th. But keep the expectations low.

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.
