The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s cut to it – this 16-day forecast for Fano Sassonia is a real bummer. We’re looking at mostly flat, weak, short-period windswell, and the scores tell the story: hardly anything worth paddling out for.
Starting Thursday the 16th, we’ve got a tiny 1ft swell from the north-northeast with a period of just 4 seconds. Wave energy is weak at 6. Wind is cross-shore and a little choppy. Not worth it.
Friday the 17th morning is glassy calm with a light southeast breeze, but there’s zero swell. Total flatness. The afternoon brings a tiny 1ft easterly swell, but it’s onshore and messy.
Saturday the 18th morning has a clean, glassy look with a 1ft northwest swell – still barely a ripple. The afternoon gets bumpy with stronger cross-onshore wind.
Sunday the 19th morning sees a slight bump to 1ft from the northeast, period up to 5 seconds, with swell energy at 11 – still very weak. Light cross-shore wind keeps it from being completely chopped, but it’s tiny and poor.
Monday the 20th morning is the high point. Glassy calm, no wind, and a 3ft north-northeast swell with a 6-second period. The combined swell energy hits 59 – still weak, but it’s the best we’ve got. The report calls it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” That’s your window. The afternoon gets wrecked by onshore wind.
From there, it goes downhill. Tuesday has a risk of thunderstorms and tiny swell. Wednesday the 22nd sees a weird jump: 4ft NE swell in the morning (moderate energy at 167) and 4ft in the afternoon (energy 233 – moderate), but the period is still short at 6 seconds, and the wind is strong onshore from the northeast at 22 mph. It’s a blown-out mess.
From Thursday the 23rd to the end of July, it’s flat or tiny. A few mornings are glassy and clean but with no swell. Afternoon sea breezes kick up small, onshore windswell that’s barely rideable. Scores stay at 0 or 1.
For a beginner-friendly spot like Fano Sassonia, the lack of any consistent, rideable swell makes this a period to stay dry. Water temp is about average for this time of year.
Nothing doing, folks. Keep watching the charts – it’s bound to turn around.
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.
