The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – it's a tough stretch ahead for Rocchette (Castiglioni della Pescaia). There's a big ol' gap of nothing coming, so let's get into it.
Right now, the water temp is about average for the time of year, so no wild surprises there. We start off Wednesday morning, July 15th, with a tiny 1ft of swell from the SSW, but the period is a short 5 seconds. The energy is weak (8), and honestly, it's poor surf. The wind is glassy though, ENE at 3 mph, so the surface is clean. But that's about all it has going for it. The afternoon gets worse with a cross-shore wind. Thursday morning, July 16th, is a bit cleaner with a light offshore wind from the NNW, but the swell drops to 1ft. It's still poor. Then we hit a dead zone. From Friday, July 17th, through to Wednesday, July 22nd, there's practically no swell at all. We're talking a solid 6 days of flatness. The wind might be clean at times, but there's nothing to ride. A bit of life returns on the 24th, but it's a messy 2ft from the S with a cross-onshore wind. The energy is still weak (9). The best you'll see in the whole 16 days is on the 25th and 26th. We get a 2ft swell from the SSW, with periods touching 6 seconds. The combined energy nudges up to 37 and 34, which is still very weak. The issue is that on both afternoons, the wind goes straight onshore from the S, making it choppy. The mornings are cross-shore, so it's not great. It's a long-range forecast, so things could change, but right now, there's nothing to get excited about. For a beginner-friendly sandbar, the lack of size and the onshore winds make this a tough watch. Honestly, the conditions look so poor for surf that kite surfing might be the only interesting option here.
Rusty.
