The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for the next couple of weeks. The honest truth is, we’ve got a long stretch of small, messy, and just plain ordinary conditions ahead before things start to show a glimmer of life. The water is sitting at 51°F, which is a good 4°F warmer than usual for this time of year – a bit of a surprise for the wetsuit crew.
The first real surfable day doesn’t turn up until Friday, September 4th. Even then, it’s nothing to get excited about. We’ll see a small 3 ft swell from the south, with a short period of 7 seconds, so it’s weak and lacking any punch. The combined energy is only hanging around 155 – that’s weak stuff. The wind is a clean cross-off from the SSW, so the surface will be smooth, but with such small waves, it’s only really a go for a beginner looking for a splash. The rest of that weekend and into the following week is a write-off with tiny, choppy surf and mostly onshore winds. There’s a gap of pretty much nothing worthwhile through the 5th, 7th, 8th, and 9th.
The next real shot comes on Sunday, September 6th. The morning shows a building swell – 6 ft from the SSE with a period of 10 seconds. That’s moderate energy (754 in the combined), but it’s a bit of a mixed bag. The wind is a cross-shore, which is okay, but the comment calls it “marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions.” That afternoon the wind swings onshore, making it choppy. This one is for the keen locals who know the bank, but don’t expect anything perfect.
Now, for the standout in the whole run. You have to wait until Monday, September 14th. The morning session at Playa Varesse finally looks the best of the whole 16 days. The forecast shows a 6 ft swell from the east, period at 7 seconds, but the wind is a clean cross-off from the SW. The combined energy is a solid 358 – moderate and pushing. The comment calls out “expect good surf conditions” – that’s the first time we’ve seen that in the whole forecast. The waves will be a bit soft and crumbly, but it’s the cleanest and most consistent wave of the period. The afternoon sees the wind pick up and the swell drop, so get it in the morning.
Overall, this is a quiet period for Varese. The standout is the morning of September 14th.
Rusty.

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.
