Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Lake Garda's got in store for us over the next couple of weeks. We're talking about Playa Varesse, right here on the lake.
Right off the bat, I gotta be honest with you – it's a slow start. The surf is pretty ordinary for the first week or so. The water's sitting at 51°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so that's a little bonus.
The standout session is going to be on the morning of Thursday, the 16th of July. That's the one you want to circle. We've got a S swell running at 5ft, with a moderate offshore wind from the WSW. The wave energy is pumping in at (464), and the forecast is for good conditions. That's the pick of the bunch. It's not huge, but for a lake spot, that's a solid, clean wave. It might be a little much for absolute beginners at that size, but for anyone else, it's game on.
Before that, we have a long dry spell. From now until the 15th, it's pretty flat or just disappointing. You'll see tiny dribbles, like on Saturday the 4th – a 2ft S swell with glassy conditions, but it's nothing to get excited about. Sunday the 5th morning is dead calm and glassy with a 2ft E swell, and the afternoon gets a bit of a cleaner 3ft ESE swell with a light cross-off breeze. Monday the 6th has some clean but small waves with a decent offshore wind, but it's still just ordinary.
The waves just don't have any punch. There are a few windows of clean conditions but the swell is tiny. After the 16th, it drops off again quickly. Friday the 17th is messy with strong wind, and the weekend after that is small and choppy.
So look, for Playa Varesse, the clear winner is the morning of Thursday, 16th July. Don't expect much else in this forecast. Keep an eye on the sky, but that's your best bet.

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.
