The Lowdown
Alright mate, Rusty again, switching over to the old system.
Let’s break it down for Solanas. Honestly, it’s a flat spell and it’s going to last a while. The first tiny pulse is on Monday morning July 27th – a 2ft SE swell with a weak energy reading of 26. Light cross-off from the NNW keeps the surface clean but the waves are small and crummy. Afternoon turns onshore and nasty.
Tuesday July 28th morning is your best bet in the near term: still only 2ft of SE swell, period around 7 seconds, combined energy up to 45. Light cross-off from the north gives “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” That’s the high point.
From Wednesday July 29th onward, it’s all downhill. Thursday July 30th is glassy but with swell barely a ripple – 0.3ft and combined energy of 1. From Friday July 31st through Monday August 10th, it’s mostly flat. Mornings are sometimes glassy, afternoons onshore, but no swell of any use. Friday August 7th shows a 0.3ft W windswell but it’s not surfable.
The last day, Tuesday August 11th morning, shows a glassy calm and a tiny 1ft SSE windswell with combined energy of just 4. That’s a flat lake, not a surf.
So there’s nothing that gets a recommendation. No standouts. If you’re a surfer waiting on Solanas, you’re waiting a long time. For beginners, there’s nothing to learn on; for experts, there’s nothing to ride. This kind of dead run happens here sometimes. Forecasts might change, but for now, leave the board at home.
Rusty.

Information about the Solanas Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Solanas provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Solanas can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Solanas surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Solanas) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Solanas may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Solanas is 24 km (15 miles) from Quartu Sant'Elena. If you plan a holiday in Sardinia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Quartu Sant'Elena. Quartu Sant'Elena has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
