Alright, let's get into it, folks. This local spot is a consistent beginner-friendly zone, and it's pretty exposed to whatever swell comes through. The water's sitting around 50°, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might not need the thickest suit.

Honestly, it's a tough watch for the first week or so. There's a big lull from the 9th through the 11th of July. The wind is all wrong – cross and cross-onshore – and the wave energy is low (90). You get a tiny glimmer on the morning of Sunday the 12th of July. It's small, only about 0.7m, but the swell direction is good from the ESE with a solid 13-second period. The wind goes light cross-off from the SSW, and it'll be clean. The combined energy is just 289, so don't expect much power, but it's the best of the early run. Crowds might be around, but it's nothing crazy.

After that, the next week and a half is basically all cross, cross-on, and strong winds ruining any small swell that shows up. There's a pulse of bigger surf around the 20th and 21st of July – about 6ft and then 7ft – but the period is short and the wind is messy, making for ugly chop. Even the bigger swell on the 22nd and 23rd of July, pushing 8ft with some serious weight (combined energy over 1200), is shredded by fresh cross-shore winds. At that size, with lumpy conditions, it's way too much for beginners and just a pain for everyone else.

The only other real stand-out is late in the run. On the afternoon of Thursday the 24th of July, there's a nice 6ft swell from the SSE with a long 12-second period, and finally the wind goes cross-off from the south. It'll be clean, but the energy is still high at 1013. That's your one to look out for, but it's over a week away, so stay hopeful but cautious. For the rest, it's a long dry spell with no real options. That's just how it can be.

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.
