Alright, let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks here.
We’re kickin’ things off at Playa Varesse (Italy), and honestly, the first few days are a bit of a slow burn. The water’s sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s a little bonus, but the waves themselves are nothing to write home about just yet. The combined swell energy is weak to moderate early on (187). The first real chance of anything half decent doesn’t show up until Tuesday, 7th July. That morning we get a bump in size to 4 ft from the south, with a period of 8 seconds – pretty average, short-period stuff – and a cross-off shore breeze that should keep things reasonably tidy. The energy picks up a notch (310), so it’s worth a look if you’re desperate, but it ain’t a stand-out.
Thursday the 9th and Friday the 10th get a bit bigger, but the wind swings onshore, and those waves get messy quick. Not your friend.
Now, Monday, 13th July is when things start to get interesting. Swell size climbs to 6 ft from the southeast, but the wind is cross-shore and choppy, so it’s a bit of a mess for paddle surfing – that kind of setup might actually be more fun for kite surfing than anything else. The energy is strong (528), but the quality just ain’t there.
The real standout, and the one you want to mark on your calendar, is Wednesday, 15th July. That afternoon we’ve got 5 ft of groundswell from the east-southeast, with a solid 12-second period – that’s proper long-period energy, the kind that makes for well-shaped waves with some grunt. The combined energy is strong (739), and with a light offshore breeze and clean conditions, this is gonna be *very good*. It’s the best on offer across the whole run. The only thing to keep in the back of your mind is that long-period swells like this can break a bit straight at beach breaks, but Playa Varesse should handle it alright. Expect crowds to be possible, as the consistency is good.
Thursday the 16th brings similar size but onshore wind kills it, so don’t bother.
The final weekend, 19th and 20th July, fades out into tiny, weak leftovers with almost no energy (60 and less). A bit of a fizzle, really.
So, bottom line: if you’ve got a window, aim for Wednesday afternoon, 15th July. That’s your pick of the pack. Everything else is either small, messy, or both.

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.
