The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up for Playa Varesse.
Honestly, mate, the next couple of weeks look pretty grim. We’re staring down a long, quiet stretch with hardly any decent surf to get excited about. There’s a bit of a wait ahead. From now through to late September, the swell is small, the energy is weak, and conditions are just ordinary. There is a real gap here for most of the period with nothing worth paddling out for. You’d be better off leaving the board in the shed until the very end.
The water is sitting at 51°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least the temperature isn’t adding to the misery.
The first time we see anything close to surfable is on Friday the 25th of September. On the Friday afternoon, we’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the ENE direction, with a short period of 7 seconds. The wind is offshore from the W at 15 mph, keeping things clean, but the wave energy is really low at only 64 (weak). It’s described as "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." That’s the best we’ve got, and it’s not saying much. For a beginner, it might be okay for a splash, but there’s no power or shape to get excited about.
After that, the forecast drops back into poor conditions with no real improvement through the end of the period. There’s no standout day, no proper swell, and no clean glassy window that makes it worth a special trip.
So, the honest truth: Playa Varesse is a write-off for the next 16 days. The only faint glimmer is that Friday the 25th afternoon, but keep expectations rock bottom. It tends not to stay this flat forever, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
