The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s going on with your local surf for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, looking at the whole run, it’s a tough stretch. There are some moments where you might get a wave, but you’ll need to be patient and pick your windows carefully.
The first real chance to get wet doesn’t come until Thursday morning, September 10th. Playa Varesse will have some tiny 2ft waves from the south with a 10-second period, and it’s glassy. The combined swell energy is weak (55), so don’t expect much push. The water temp is pretty average for the time of year. It’s surfable, but just barely, and the conditions are ordinary. That’s your only shot for the first few days.
Saturday the 12th sees a jump in size with 7ft swell from the SSE, but the period is a short 8 seconds and the wind is a messy cross-shore. Combined energy is moderate (586), but the poor conditions make it a write-off. Sunday and Monday stay small and messy.
Then, on Tuesday the 15th, we get a bit of a pulse. The morning shows 7ft from the south with a short 7-second period, but the wind is clean cross-off. The energy is moderate (394), but the short period means it’s going to be lumpy and weak. Still, for a determined surfer, it’s the most size we’ve seen. Afternoon sees 6ft with similar conditions. It’s not great, but it’s the closest thing to a standout we have in the first week.
A couple of interesting days pop up a week later. On Sunday the 20th, the morning has 3ft from the south with a clean offshore wind (WSW 12 mph) and a 10-second period. The energy is moderate (209). The afternoon gets even better with 4ft from the south, a 12-second period, and a clean cross-off breeze. That longer period (12 seconds) will give the waves a bit more shape. This is probably the best looking session of the whole forecast, though it’s still ordinary. Then Monday the 21st morning has a fresh offshore, but the swell is tiny at 2ft.
Overall, it’s a bleak run for most of the 16 days. There are large gaps of 3-4 days with nothing worth paddling out for. If you’re desperate, the Sunday the 20th afternoon session is your best bet. Otherwise, it’s a time to check your gear and wait for the forecasts to change.
Rusty.

Information about the Playa Varesse Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Playa Varesse provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Playa Varesse can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Playa Varesse 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 (Playa Varesse) 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 Playa Varesse 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.
