Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for the next couple of weeks. I’ve gotta be straight with you – this is a tough stretch. The first solid chance we get won’t be until the morning of Saturday the 11th, and even then, it’s barely hanging on.

The whole pattern starts quiet and stays that way for a long time. We’ve got a few days of nothing worth paddling out for – Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th are basically write-offs with poor surf and choppy, cross-onshore winds. Then we roll into the Saturday the 11th morning, and it’s finally something we can work with. Playa Varesse sees a small-ish swell coming in from the ESE at about 4ft, with a period of 10 seconds – that’s a short period windswell, not a groundswell, so it’ll feel a bit jumbled. The combined energy is moderate at 737 (moderate wave energy). The wind is light cross-onshore from the SE, so there will be a few ripples on the surface, but it’s not awful. The water temp is sitting around 50°, which is about 2° warmer than average for this time of year – a bit of a mild anomaly, nothing wild. This spot is a beginner-friendly beach, and it’s fairly consistent, with crowds being only a sometimes thing, so you won’t be fighting too many people for these small ones. Honestly, this is the best we’ve got in the window. It’s a marginal day, but if you’re keen, Saturday morning is the pick.

After that, we go into Sunday the 12th through to Thursday the 17th with mostly poor to marginal conditions. The swell stays small, between 0.7ft and 4ft, and the wind flips around constantly – some cleaner cross-off moments on Sunday the 12th and Tuesday the 14th, but the wave energy is weak, dropping from 355 (moderate) down to 7 (weak) by Thursday the 16th. Nothing worth getting excited about.

Then around Monday the 20th, there’s a little spike – a 5ft swell from the south, period of 8 seconds (still short period). Combined energy is moderate at 306. The wind on Monday morning is clean, cross-off from the SSW, so it’ll be clean surf. But keep in mind, 5ft is getting into the range where beginners might find it a bit much. The sets will be a bit onshore, and the period is short, so it’ll be a bit lumpy. Still, it’s a better option than most of the rest of the window. Tuesday the 21st has a similar-sized swell (5ft to 5ft) but with cross-shore and cross-onshore winds, so it won’t be as clean.

For the rest of the second week, from Wednesday the 22nd to Friday the 24th, it’s back to poor surf with onshore winds and tiny waves. A bit of a bummer, really.

So, to sum it up: the standout is Saturday the 11th morning at Playa Varesse for a knee-to-waist high, clean-ish session. It’s not epic, but it’s the best on offer. Monday the 20th morning is another look for slightly bigger, clean waves, but it’s a week and a half away, so keep an eye on it. Otherwise, bring a book or a kite if you’re that way inclined, because this isn’t a classic run for paddle surfing.

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.
