The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let me break down the Viareggio Piazza Mazzini stretch for you in feet and miles.
Looking over the full 16-day window, I’ve got to be honest – there’s not much to get excited about. The first week or more is really quiet, with barely a ripple worth paddling for. It’s a long, flat run. The water temperature is 81°F, which is a massive 6°F warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s some seriously unusual warm water.
The first time you might get a wet suit off is Sunday, August 30th. The morning shows a 4ft swell from the WSW at 7 seconds, with moderate energy (116). Wind is offshore from the east at 10 km/h (6 mph), so it’ll be clean. But it’s just average, ordinary surf. The afternoon drops to 3ft and turns cross-onshore, so that’s about it.
Monday the 31st of August starts glassy but with a tiny 1ft swell and no energy. Not worth it.
From September 1st through the 8th, it’s mostly flat or under 2ft – just no wave there. Clean mornings but nothing to ride.
The only little bump comes on Wednesday, September 9th, with a 5ft WSW swell at 7 seconds and moderate energy (201). But the wind is cross-onshore at 15 km/h (9 mph), making it choppy and messy. Not a standout day at all.
After that, it fades back to tiny bumps or flat into the 13th. Absolutely no clear winner in this forecast. If you have to surf, the morning of Sunday the 30th is your best shot, but don’t expect much.
Rusty.
