The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for this stretch of coast.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. The next 16 days are lookin’ pretty bleak for anything worth paddling out for. The finder shows no standout surf, and every single session is flagged as poor surf conditions. That’s a rough run.
We’ve got a small window of possibility on the morning of Friday, 24 July. The wind will be glassy, dead calm, which is a beautiful thing. But the swell is tiny – only 2 ft from the NE with a short period of 4 seconds, and the combined swell energy is a weak 9. It’s really just a ripple. The break is Fano Sassonia, a beginner spot that’s inconsistent and exposed to ESE swell, but this NE pulse won’t light it up. The water temp is 82°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – over 4°F warmer than usual, so at least a dip will feel nice.
The rest of the first week is a mix of onshore winds and tiny, weak swell. Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th have some clean mornings with light offshore or cross-offshore breezes, but the swell is barely there – 0.7 ft to 1 ft, with energy readings of 1 to 8. You’d be looking at a flat, glassy lake more than surfable waves.
Monday 27th through Tuesday 28th offer a tiny bump of energy, with the highest being 3 ft on Tuesday afternoon from the ENE, but with a 5-second period and an onshore wind, it’ll be a messy, lumpy mess. The combined energy hits 56 that session – still weak.
After that, from Wednesday 30th July right through to Friday 7th August, it’s almost completely flat. There are days with zero swell and zero energy, and the few tiny ripples (0.3 ft to 1 ft) are not worth the wetsuit. The winds are often light and clean, but without any swell, it’s just a nice day to sit on the beach.
Honestly, there’s no standout day here. The best you’ll get is the glassy Friday 24th morning for a tiny, gutless paddle, but it ain’t surf. This spot is inconsistent at the best of times, and a run like this is more normal for the area when the swell direction doesn’t line up. Keep your eyes on the charts, because it tends not to stay this poor forever.
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.
