Table - best surf conditions forecast for Rocchette (Castiglioni della Pescaia) over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next couple of weeks around Rocchette (Castiglioni della Pescaia) are pretty grim for a paddle. We’re talking about a sandbar break that’s exposed to the swell, but there’s barely any energy coming in for days.
First proper surf in the outlook is on Saturday the 12th of July, but it’s tiny – 2 feet of swell from the south with a short, weak period of 6 seconds and combined swell energy of only 24. Light east wind in the morning keeps it cross-shore, but the surf is still poor. The next few days are similar: Sunday the 13th sees a glassy 2 feet south swell (20 combined energy), but it’s still poor. Water temp is a very warm 78°, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year.
From Tuesday the 15th of July right through to Saturday the 19th of July, most of the forecast shows no swell at all – flat spells with zero combined energy. A few clean mornings with offshore or glassy wind, but nothing to ride. That’s a solid 3 to 4 day gap with no surf.
Things try to pick up a little around Sunday the 20th of July. A tiny bump of 3 feet from the SSE with a period of just 4 seconds (weak, combined energy of 22). The wind is cross-offshore in the afternoon, so it might look clean, but the wave quality is still poor. Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd of July keep the swell tiny (2 feet to 2 feet) and short-period. The best of this period is Tuesday the 22nd of July morning: a 2-foot swell from the WNW with a slightly better period of 8 seconds and combined energy of 82 – moderate for this spot – with a light east cross-shore wind. Still, it’s poor surf.
From Wednesday the 23rd of July onward, it’s more of the same – tiny, weak swells in the 1 foot to 2 foot range with short periods. Thursday the 24th has a 2 foot WNW swell (period 7 seconds, 56 energy) with a gentle cross-shore wind, but it’s choppy. The final days through to Sunday the 27th of July keep the trend: very small, poor-quality waves with onshore or cross-onshore winds.
Honestly, there’s no standout here. The waves are too small and weak for any real surfing. For a sandbar break like Rocchette, this is a tough run. With the tiny swell and light winds, it looks more like a spot for a swim than a surf. If you’re desperate, the Tuesday the 22nd of July morning offers the best chance at something rideable, but keep expectations low.
Rusty.
