The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. I’m looking at the next couple of weeks, and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this stretch is a real flat spell for Alassio. The waves are just not showing up, so we’re looking at a long gap with nothing worth paddling out for. The first solid chance of a surfable wave isn’t even on the cards for the first week. It’s going to be a quiet one.
The first real blip of interest doesn’t come until Monday, August 11th. Early that morning, we’ve got a tiny bit of energy trying to push through. There’s a 1ft bump from the SSE with a period of 5 seconds, and the wind is glassy. That’s rare and it’s the best we’ll see in a while. The combined energy is a very weak 13, so it’s going to be small and pretty weak, but at least it’ll be clean. If you’re desperate for a longboard or a foamy, that’s your window, but don’t expect much.
Later that same afternoon, the swell picks up a touch to 2ft from the East, but the wind goes cross-on, so it’ll be a bit bumpy. The energy is still weak at 14. It’s not a standout, just the best of a bad bunch.
Then after that, we drop right back off. The rest of the week into the weekend is flat. There’s a few mornings with clean offshore winds, but absolutely no swell to ride. It’s frustrating. The water temperature is 82°, which is 7° warmer than normal – that’s very unusual, so the water is bath-like, but you’ll be floating on a mirror.
The only other sniff of a wave comes on Monday, August 17th, in the morning. A 1ft SE swell with a 4-second period, and a clean offshore wind from the NNW. The energy is a measly 4. It’s tiny, weak, and inconsistent. Honestly, for this area, a blank run like this isn’t totally unexpected, but it still stings. The setup might look more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on those choppier afternoons, but for us wave riders, it’s a washout. Stay patient, and check the forecasts again in a few days.
Rusty.

Information about the Alassio Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Alassio provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Alassio can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Alassio surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Alassio) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Alassio may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
