The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cooking for the Alassio region over the next couple of weeks. I'll be straight with you – it's a tough stretch.
We've got a long, quiet gap to start. The first real chance to even think about getting wet doesn't show up until Saturday the 29th of August. Before that, it's flat, weak, or messy. From the 26th right through to the 29th, the waves are just too poor to bother with. Then from the 30th of August, it goes dead again all the way through to Tuesday the 9th of September. That's a solid 10-day hole where the ocean pretty much shuts down.
The one and only stand-out window falls on Saturday the 29th of August. For the morning session at Alassio, we're looking at a small 3ft SSW swell with a period of 7 seconds. The energy is weak, only clocking in at 62. It's surfable but nothing to write home about. The big win here is the wind – a light 6 mph breeze from the north will keep it clean and cross-off. That's about the best you're going to get. The break is exposed to the south, which matches up nicely with the swell direction, but don't expect any power. This is a beginner-friendly spot, and given the lack of size, it'll be fine for learners. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.
If you're a seasoned surfer, I'd say save your energy. The 3ft stuff is barely enough to stand up on, and the long period groundswells we love just aren't in the cards. For the kite crew, the afternoon on Saturday the 29th sees the wind swing onshore from the ESE at 6 mph, which might make for some bumpy rides on the 2ft leftovers, but for surfing, it's a no-go.
Honestly, mate, this is one of those periods where you're better off cleaning the wax off your board and waiting for the next weather system to roll through. It can't stay this quiet 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.
