The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s on offer for Viareggio Piazza Mazzini over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the forecast is pretty grim for a solid stretch. The first recommendation isn’t until Sunday morning, July 26th, and even then it’s a borderline call. For the first week and a half, we’re looking at a long dry spell with hardly any swell energy. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-on, and the waves are tiny – think 0.7ft to 1ft with short, weak periods. The water is running much warmer than normal for the time of year, but that’s small comfort when you’re staring at flat, choppy lines.
The real standout, and the only one worth getting excited about, is the morning of Friday, July 31st. The swell picks up noticeably to 6ft from the SW, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to a solid 508, which is a proper punch of power. Now, the wind is a cross-onshore at 19 mph, making it a lumpy, fresh mess. That’s enough size to be a bit much for beginners, but for the experienced crew, it’s the only pulse of real energy in the whole window. The swell direction is SW, which is the optimum for this spot, so the setup will be working.
The morning of Saturday, August 1st, is a weaker echo of that – 4ft from the WSW with cleaner, cross-off winds from the east at 6 mph. The energy is down to 119, so it’s a much smaller, more ordinary option. Not a stand-out, but a salvageable session if you’re desperate.
Overall, don’t hold your breath for the next ten days. The one window of opportunity is the last day of July, but don’t expect perfection. It’s a raw, windy pulse of swell.
Rusty.
