The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, checking in on the local forecast for Sicily. Let's be real, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for us. The water is sitting at a tropical 83°, which is much warmer than normal for the time of year, so at least the swim will be nice.
We're looking at a long stretch of nothing here. From now through the 23rd of July, the swell is tiny – we're talking ankle-snappers at best, with next to no energy in the water. The combined swell energy is stuck on single digits, barely reaching 12 (weak energy) on the 23rd. It's just not worth paddling out for.
The first real event shows up on the 24th of July. We get a pulse of swell from the WNW, pushing 6 ft, with a period of 6 seconds. That's a short-period, choppy windswell, and the combined energy hits a moderate 176. But the wind is howling onshore from the WNW at 30 mph, making it a choppy, bumpy mess. The report says "poor surf conditions" and honestly, it's more of a kite-surfing afternoon than a paddle-surfing one. By the afternoon, the swell jumps to 8 ft with 715 (strong wave energy) but it's still onshore and messy. That's big, but only for the experts, and even then, it's not going to be pretty.
The 25th of July sees the swell drop back to 4 ft in the morning, still onshore, and the energy falls to 279 (moderate). The 26th and 27th have some glassy windows early, but the swell is tiny again, under 2 ft, with energy in the low double digits. It's a tease.
From the 28th of July right through to the end of the forecast on the 2nd of August, it's back to flatness. The swell is gone, and the combined energy is mostly zero. There's simply nothing to surf. It's a blank run, and for this area, it's not that unusual to have a long quiet spell in the summer.
So, the honest truth? There are no standouts. The only period with any size is the 24th and 25th, and the wind destroys it. You're better off waiting for the next weather system to shake things up. Forecasts can change, but right now, the board stays in the car.

Information about the Isola Delle Femmine Surf forecast

A general guide to surfing at Isola Delle Femmine can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.
