The Lowdown
Right then, folks. Rusty here. We’re in for a quiet spell.
Alright, let’s be straight with you – looking at the next 16 days, it is flat. There’s just nothing on the cards for Alassio. The only window with a sniff of a wave is the opening Saturday morning, 29th of August, but even that is barely a whisper. We get a small 3ft swell from the SSW with a short 7-second period, and the combined energy is weak (69). The wind is glassy though, so it *looks* pretty. But with that little energy and that short period, it’s not going to offer up anything worth paddling out for. The water is cooking at 82°, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year – over 5° above normal – so it feels more like a bath than surf season.
After that Saturday morning, it’s a long, boring stretch. Sunday the 30th drops to 1ft with a cross-off wind – still just too small. Monday and Tuesday mornings stay cross-off but the swell has all but vanished. Wednesday the 2nd of September is completely flat. From there until the end of the forecast, the highest we see is a measly 2ft on Tuesday the 8th of September, but that’s with an onshore wind and combined energy of just 33. That’s not surfing, that’s floating. Thursday the 10th is completely flat again.
So, the honest truth is there’s nothing to get excited about. No standouts, no windows of quality. For a spot like Alassio, which can be inconsistent at the best of times, a run like this is pretty normal for the season. Don’t hold your breath – wait for the next forecast change. It won’t stay this poor forever.
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.
