The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's talk about what's happening in the water around Varese. It's a quiet spell, no two ways about it. A lot of days with nothing much to offer, so you're gonna need to pick your moment.
The first time we see anything surfable is Wednesday the 16th, and it's a bit of a mixed bag. Wednesday morning at Playa Varesse, we've got a 5ft swell from the SSE with a period of 9 seconds. The combined swell energy is moderate at 484. The wind is a light cross-shore, which is clean, but the forecast says it's just marginal. After that, it's a whole lot of small, weak, and choppy junk for the rest of the week.
The one to keep your eye on is Tuesday the 22nd, which is about a week and a half out. The morning session is looking clean with a light offshore breeze from the WSW. Swell will be about 4ft from the south, period around 10 seconds, and a moderate combined swell energy of 311. The forecast is calling for good conditions. It's not a huge swell, but that light offshore wind will keep the surface smooth and fun. Playa Varesse is a consistent, beginner-friendly spot, so this is your window. Remember, it's a long-range call, so there's always a chance things change, but as of now, Tuesday the 22nd is your best shot. The water temp is around 50°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so it's not too bad.
The rest of the second week stays pretty grim. The 23rd and 24th are messy or small, and the 25th is a washout with rain and onshore wind. You might get a look in on the morning of Sunday the 29th, with another 4ft SSE swell and light cross-shore wind, but it's flagged as marginal, so don't get your hopes up.
So there you have it. A long, flat run with a couple of small windows. Mark your calendar for Tuesday the 22nd, and keep your fingers crossed. Forecasts change, so stay tuned.
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.
