The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. This is Rusty, and I’m looking at the forecast for Playa Varesse over the next couple of weeks. Got to be straight with you, it’s a grim stretch for the most part. We’re not looking at a lot of wave energy, and the conditions are mostly against us.
The water here is reading at 50.2°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s a small comfort. But the surf? Mostly weak. The combined energy of the swells is low, often in the double digits – that’s weak energy (81, 70, 58) and not worth getting excited about.
The first real chance of anything decent comes on Sunday, September 13th. The morning shows a little life. We’ve got a 4.3ft swell from the SSE, with a period of 9 seconds, and clean conditions thanks to a light WNW breeze. The combined energy is at 295 (moderate). It’s not a world-beater, but it’s the best we’ve got. The break is a fairly exposed spot, and it’s a beginner wave, so it’s not going to be too intimidating. Crowds are possible sometimes, so you might see a few others out. The wind is cross-off, so the face should be clean. This is the standout of the whole forecast period.
After that, it goes quiet again. The swell drops right back to almost nothing. There’s a brief pulse on Wednesday, September 16th, with a 4.9ft swell from the S and moderate energy (317), but the wind is cross-off and the conditions are described as marginal. The following day, the 17th, the swell is 4.3ft but the wind turns cross-on and choppy, so that’s a write-off.
The rest of the second week into the 23rd of September is basically flat. You’re looking at swells of 0.7ft to 2.0ft, all with poor to very ordinary conditions. The combined energy drops to single digits and low double digits. Kite surfers might find something to do on the windier days, especially the 11th and 12th when the wind is strong, but for paddle surfing, it’s a blank.
So, to put it simply: if you want to get wet, your best bet is the morning of the 13th of September. After that, it’s a long wait. It’s normal for this area to have these quiet runs, so don’t be too bummed. The forecasts can change, but for now, the 13th is the one to circle.
