G’day, Rusty here. I’ve had a good look at the Viareggio region and the forecast for Royal (Viareggio - Royal). Let me be straight with you: there’s not much to get excited about for most of the next couple of weeks. We’re looking at a long, quiet spell before a tiny window of something surfable appears right at the end of the outlook.
The first recommendation doesn’t kick in until Saturday the 18th of July. That’s a gap of over two weeks from now with nothing worth paddling out for. From the 4th of July right through to the morning of the 18th, we’ve got flat spells and tiny, weak swell – mostly under 2ft – with periods all below 8 seconds. Combined energy is next to nothing, barely hitting double digits. Water temperature at Royal is sitting at 77°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – a solid 4°F above average, so it’s a warm bath even if there’s nothing to ride.
Now, for the one true standout: Saturday morning, the 18th of July. This is the only window that looks remotely worth your time. Royal will see a 4ft swell from the SW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy hits 147 – that’s moderate energy. Winds are light from the NNE at 3 mph, giving us clean conditions with a glassy surface. This is about as good as it gets in this run, and with it being inconsistent, you’ll want to be on it when it’s there. Swell direction matches the optimum SW direction, so the break should line up nicely. The afternoon on the 18th turns cross-onshore and drops off, so don’t sleep on the morning session. This swell is small enough for beginners too, so everyone can have a go.
After that, Sunday the 19th shows a drop back to tiny, weak 1ft to 2ft swell with poor cross-onshore winds. No other standouts follow. The second week remains very quiet, with nothing else to recommend.
To be honest, this is a long drought with only that Saturday morning the 18th offering anything surfable. For a spot that breaks inconsistently, a blank run like this isn’t unusual. Forecasts can change, but right now, mark your calendar for the 18th and hope for the best.
Rusty.
