The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. I’ve looked over the charts for our stretch of coast, and it’s a pretty bleak picture for the next couple of weeks. We’re looking at a long, flat spell with only a couple of faint pulses that might get you wet, but won’t get you stoked.
The standout spot, if you can even call it that, is Fano Sassonia. It’s the only place in the data that shows any life, but it’s a fickle one, marked as `inconsistent`, so you gotta pick your moments. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Right now, through the middle of the week, there’s just nothing. Tuesday and Wednesday are flat, with a bit of cross-onshore breeze kicking up some chop on the afternoons. You’re better off doing anything else.
Thursday the 20th stays small, but Friday the 21st shows a slight pulse. The morning looks clean with a light offshore wind from the WSW, and a tiny 1 ft swell from the east. The energy is weak, with a combined energy value of just 4. It’s ankle-biters at best. The afternoon picks up a little to 1 ft, but the wind swings cross-shore and it gets a bit messy.
Then we hit a dead zone for the weekend and into the start of next week. It’s a proper flat spell, with nothing surfable from Saturday the 23rd right through to Monday the 25th.
Our first real chance comes on Tuesday the 25th. The afternoon shows a jump in swell to 5 ft from the NNW, with a period of 6 seconds. The energy is moderate at 129, but the wind is howling offshore from the WSW at 15 mph. This could be a bit of a wind-blown mess, but it’s the only time we see any size. The waves will be raw and walled-up, not for the faint of heart. It’s also coupled with a risk of thunderstorms.
Wednesday the 26th still has some energy left in the water. The morning sees 3 ft from the NE with a 5-second period and light offshore winds. This is the most “surfable” it gets, but the comment says it best: “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” We’re talking small, weak, and probably closing out.
After that, it fades back into nothing. The rest of the week and into the start of September is flat, with only tiny 1 ft and 1 ft blips that are just not worth paddling out for.
So, there it is. A long stretch of nothing with one or two average days. Your best bet is to keep an eye on Tuesday the 25th afternoon, but don’t get your hopes up. This is a classic case of the ocean taking a breather. It won’t stay poor forever, but for the next 16 days, the pickings are mighty slim.
Stay sandy.

A general guide to surfing at Fano Sassonia can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
