The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I’ve got to be straight with you – this is a quiet stretch. The forecast window is sixteen days long, and there’s no surf worth paddling out for until the first recommendation actually kicks in. That first real sniff of a wave comes on Saturday afternoon, 15 August. The days before that are flat, so we’re looking at a dry spell right at the start.
Overall, it’s a lean run. The swell that does show up is tiny, and the energy is weak across the board. The one spot we’ve got to work with is Fano Sassonia. It’s a beginner-friendly, exposed beach break that doesn’t fire often. The water temperature is sitting at 84°F with a 6°F anomaly – that’s much warmer than usual for this time of year, so you’ll feel like you’re surfing in a bath.
The standout window, if you can call it that, is Saturday afternoon 15 August. Now, the swell is a measly 1 ft from the NE with a period of just 4 seconds. That’s short-period, weak windswell with combined energy of only 4 – barely a ripple. The wind is a cross-on 9 mph from the NNE, so it’s going to be a bit choppy. It’s not great, but it’s the best we’ve got.
The other moment worth a mention is Wednesday afternoon 26 August. We see a slight bump to 3 ft from the NE, period of 6 seconds, and combined energy hitting 49 (low moderate). The wind is a cross-on 9 mph from the north, so expect a fairly choppy surface. It’s still not a classic, but it’s the biggest wave of the whole run.
For the rest of the period, it’s a whole lot of nothing. Mornings see mostly clean, glassy conditions but with no swell to speak of. Afternoons get chopped up by onshore breezes. There’s a long gap of many days with no real recommendations. The setup here is more suited to a beginner wanting a splash than anyone looking for a proper wave. If you’re an experienced surfer, I wouldn’t bother packing the board.
Rusty.
