The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for Playa Varesse over the next couple of weeks.

We’re kicking off with a pretty flat start. The first real chance for a wave won’t come until Sunday morning, August 2nd. That’s a bit of a wait. Up until then, we’ve got a mix of weak, short-period swells getting chopped up by fresh cross-onshore breezes. Not worth your time.

Sunday, August 2nd is the first standout. We’ve got a solid pulse of swell arriving overnight. The water is sitting at 50°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The morning session will see clean, waist-high waves from the south-southeast, around 3 ft, with a decent period. The winds will be light and cross-offshore, making for some tidy, rideable lines. The combined energy is moderate at 448, so there’s some proper push behind it. This is the best bet in the first week.

Monday, August 3rd keeps the hope alive. The morning is a write-off with onshore wind, but the Monday afternoon session is a gem. The wind goes glassy, the swell holds at 5 ft from the SSE, and the energy is strong at 446. This is clean, open-face surfing on what will feel like a proper groundswell. This is a top pick.

After that, Tuesday and Wednesday look average to poor with lumpy conditions and smaller swell. Thursday morning the 6th has some punch at 4 ft with clean offshore winds, but it’s a marginal tide situation.

Now, looking into the second week, there’s a real spike on Tuesday, August 11th. This is the big one, but it comes with a serious caveat. We’re looking at 7 ft swell from the SSE, with a very long period of 14 seconds. The combined energy is massive at 1692. That’s a lot of power. This is going to be heavy, expert-only territory. The wind is cross-offshore and clean, but that size and period will make it a handful. The afternoon drops to 5 ft, still a lot of wave.

Wednesday, August 12th morning might be the sweet spot after that big swell settles. 3 ft from the SSE, 11 seconds period, light cross-offshore winds, and combined energy of 309. A much more manageable, clean option for the average surfer.

Honestly, the pick of the entire forecast is the Sunday morning, August 2nd and Monday afternoon, August 3rd combo. Good clean surf, moderate size, and friendly winds. The rest of the window is either too small, too choppy, or too big.

Get on it while it’s clean.

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.
