The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on offer for the Viareggio stretch over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the outlook is pretty bleak. This is one of those periods where you might be better off cleaning the wax off your boards or going for a swim. The first real sniff of any surfable waves doesn’t show up until Friday the 21st of August, and even then, it’s nothing to write home about. We’re looking at a solid 11-day gap with no real recommendations, just a lot of flat, clean mornings with nothing to ride.
Viareggio Piazza Mazzini is the only spot on the radar. The water is sitting at a very warm 84°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – feels like bathwater.
Friday morning the 21st is the only time that shows a pulse. We’ll see a small swell rolling in from the WSW at 3ft, with a period of 9 seconds. That’s a weak groundswell, with combined wave energy at a moderate 120. The wind is light and cross-off from the east at 6 mph, so the morning session will be clean. The break is fairly exposed to the swell, and the direction is pretty much on the money for the spot. It’s a consistent beginner wave, so you’ll get enough waves to practice, but remember, crowds are possible here. The afternoon gets messy with onshore wind, so get out early.
The rest of the window is a write-off. A few tiny 0.6ft to 1ft pulses pop up now and then, but with periods as short as 3 seconds, you’ll be doing more floating than surfing. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore in the afternoons, making it choppy and ugly.
Friday morning the 21st is the only real standout. It’s not epic, but it’s the only thing on the menu. Get it while it’s clean.
Rusty.
