Table - best surf conditions forecast for Viareggio Piazza Mazzini over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s go. Viareggio Piazza Mazzini is the only spot in the mix here, and honestly, it’s a tough stretch. The block of decent swell is a long way off. For the next week and a half, it’s flat to tiny, with the combined energy barely tickling a foot. Right now, the water temp is sitting at 79°, which is 5° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s much warmer than normal, so the water feels like a bath.
The first real glimmer of something rideable arrives on Monday, July 21st, with a morning push of 4ft from the WSW, 6-second period, and that’s the first time the energy climbs into triple digits – 113. It’s surfable, but the conditions are just ordinary. The wind is light and cross-off, so it’s clean, but the swell is weak and short-period. It’s a beginner-friendly size, but the quality is not there.
Tuesday, July 22nd, is almost a repeat – 4ft from the WSW, 6-second period, 132 energy. Again, clean in the morning, but the afternoon gets ruined by onshore wind. Same story: surfable, but nothing to get excited about.
Then Thursday, July 23rd, just before the real event, the morning turns glassy with 5ft from the SW, 7-second period, and 194 energy. That’s the best of the early stuff, but it’s still very ordinary.
The standout comes on the morning of Friday, July 24th. That’s the one. 7ft from the WSW, 8-second period, and the energy jumps to 545 – that’s strong wave energy. With a light offshore wind from the east, it’s clean. This is a solid, powerful swell. But at 7ft, it’s pushing into expert territory – not for beginners. The break is a beach setup, so with that period (8 seconds), it’ll be a bit punchy and dumpy. It’s the best on offer, but it’s not perfect. The afternoon will get hammered by onshore wind, so get on it early.
Crowds are listed as “sometimes,” so you might have some company, but it’s not a zoo.
The rest of the forecast is a write-off – lots of zeros for energy, tiny waves, and onshore wind. The run from now until July 21st is a flat spell. So, if you’re a local, you wait. The 24th morning is the only real session worth setting an alarm for.
