The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get real here. I’ve been looking at the charts for the Viareggio area, and to be honest, it’s looking pretty bleak for the next two weeks. The swell window is just not cooperating, and the wind is rarely on our side.
The only spot on the radar is Viareggio Piazza Mazzini. It’s a beginner-friendly beach break that’s fairly exposed to the swell, but it’s not doing much at all. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing special.
For the next week and a half, we’re looking at a long stretch of almost nothing. There’s a very small window around Sunday morning, August 30th, where we might see something surfable. The swell is tiny at 4 ft from the WSW, with a period of just 6 seconds, so it’s weak and choppy. The combined energy is only 103, which is weak. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the east, so it’ll be clean, but the waves are just ordinary. Not something to get excited about.
Then, after that, it’s a massive gap of dead flat conditions. Days go by with nothing. Finally, we get a brief glimmer on Thursday morning, September 10th. The swell picks up to 4 ft from the south, with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy hits 151 (moderate). The wind is light and cross-offshore from the ESE, so it’ll be clean. The forecast says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” Again, it’s not great, but it’s the best we’ve got.
Look, this is a tough stretch. Viareggio Piazza Mazzini is a consistent spot, so it’s not usually this dead. Forecasts can change, but right now, the only sessions that even get a score of 1 out of 10 are those two mornings: August 30th and September 10th. Everything else is a flat or blown-out mess. If you’re desperate, those are your only windows. Otherwise, keep your board on the roof and wait for the charts to change.
