The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let me tell you straight up, it’s a bit of a dry spell for Vari (Greece) in this 16-day window. The forecast is showing a long, long stretch of flat, calm conditions with zero wave energy on the charts. We’re looking at a solid run of nothing from Thursday afternoon, July 30th, all the way through to the morning of Thursday, August 14th – that’s over two weeks of no surf to speak of. The water temperature is sitting at 80°F at the start, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s small comfort when there’s no swell.
The only glimmer on the horizon shows up on the afternoon of Thursday, August 14th, with a tiny bit of life. We’re talking a weak 1.0ft swell from the SSW, with a short period of 4 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 4 (four), so it’s barely a whisper. The wind is light and cross-onshore, so it won’t be clean. Honestly, this is a beginner-level day at best, and even then, it’s a struggle. Vari is an inconsistent spot that only really works with a solid S swell, and this isn’t it. For a spot that’s exposed and inconsistent, this blank run is a bit more normal for the area, unfortunately. Don’t hang your hopes on this one, folks. Keep an eye on the longer range, because forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.

Information about the Vari Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Vari provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Vari can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Vari 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 (Vari) 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 Vari 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.
