The Lowdown

G'day, Rusty here, lookin' at the surf for the Varese area. We've got a bit of a dry spell to start, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel. The water's a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, sittin' at 50°F.

First up, we're lookin' at Playa Varesse, and honestly, it's a tough watch. From Sunday the 26th of July right through to the end of the month, it's mostly poor. You've got tiny swells, 0.7ft to 3ft, with a lot of cross-on wind and chop. The energy is weak, with values like 53, 36, and 103, so there's nothin' to get excited about. There's a slight pulse on the 30th of July with a 3ft swell from the south, but it's still very ordinary.

Then we hit a blank run. Nothin' worth paddling out for from the 31st of July through to the 1st of August. The swell is tiny, and the wind is messy.

Now, here's where it gets interesting. On Monday the 3rd of August, we finally see a change. The wind swings offshore from the west, and the swell picks up to 5ft from the east-southeast, with a period of 9 seconds. The energy is moderate (496), and the conditions are forecast as clean. This is the best on offer in the whole 16-day window, so mark it in your calendar. The waves should be a solid waist-to-chest high, but it's a beach break, so with that longer period, it might be a little straight. Still, get on it early.

Tuesday the 4th of August is a bit of a letdown with cross-onshore winds messing up a 4ft to 5ft swell. Wednesday the 5th of August morning looks cleaner again, with a 4ft swell from the east-southeast and a light offshore wind. The energy is moderate (284). It's a decent option, but not as solid as that Monday.

After that, the swell drops off again. Thursday the 6th of August has 3ft to 3ft, and by Friday the 7th of August, it's back to tiny 2ft to 2ft. The wind stays offshore, but there's just no power.

The second week is a write-off. The swell is too small, and the wind gets strong again. The 10th of August has a spike in energy (568) from a 3ft, 17-second period swell from the south-southeast, but the wind is messy and the conditions are poor. It's a long period swell, but at a beach break, it'll likely be too straight and hard to manage.

Overall, if you're a beginner, the 5ft swell on Monday the 3rd of August might be a bit much, but it's your best shot. The crowd at Playa Varesse can be a problem sometimes, so get there early. For the rest of the window, it's a long wait for not much.

Rusty out.

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.
