Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are looking like a proper flat spell around Rocchette (Castiglioni della Pescaia). There’s really nothing to get excited about for a long stretch, so don't be rushing down with your board just yet.
We kick things off with basically nothing. From Sunday the 5th of July right through to Friday the 17th of July, it’s a ghost town. Day after day of tiny, choppy, or flat conditions. You’ll see a few flashes of ankle-snappers at best, with a bit of a cross-off breeze on Sunday morning, but it’s so small it’s barely a ripple. The combined swell energy barely scrapes into double digits (1), and honestly, it’s a write-off. The water is much warmer than normal for this time of year at 78°, but that’s about the only thing going for it.
Now, there is a glimmer of hope for the end of the run, but you’ve got to be patient. We finally see some life on Saturday the 18th of July. Early morning we get a pulse of WNW swell, pushing 2ft, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy finally bumps up to a moderate 142, which is a step up from the dust we’ve been looking at. It’s not huge, but it’s something. The wind is a light cross-onshore, so it'll be a bit bumpy, but for the first time in a fortnight, there’s enough to get a few grovelly turns in. The swell direction is WNW, which is a bit off the optimum SSW for this sandbar, but at this point we take what we can get. It won't be a classic, just a chance to get wet.
Sunday the 19th of July sees the swell backing off already, dropping to 1ft with a 8 second period and a light cross-shore wind in the morning. It'll be clean but weak, with combined energy falling right back off to 24. Nothing to write home about.
So here’s the bottom line: the whole first two weeks are a complete loss. The only possible surf comes on the 18th of July, and even that is a marginal, below-par option. If you’re desperate for a splash, that’s your window. Otherwise, keep the gear in the shed and wait for the next proper pulse. Forecasts can always change, but as it stands, it’s a tough one to swallow.
Rusty.
