The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the surf picture for Alassio over the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch. The forecast is pretty much a long, flat spell, so don’t get your hopes up for any proper waves.
We kick off on Saturday the 29th of August with a tiny bump. There’s a 4ft swell pushing in from the SW, but it’s got a short period of just 6 seconds and a cross-shore wind that has the wave comment calling it poor surf. The combined energy is weak at only 128, and it’s just not going to give you anything worth paddling out for. Water temp is sitting at 81°, which is a whopping 8° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s very unusual, but it won’t help the waves.
After that, it’s a flat desert. From Sunday the 30th of August right through to Saturday the 12th of September, there is nothing on the cards. The swell heights are either a dash or barely a ripple – we’re talking 1ft or less, if anything at all. Combined energy values are in the single digits or just outright zero. There are a few mornings with glassy or cross-offshore winds, like Wednesday the 2nd of September morning, but with no swell, it’s like having a perfect offshore for a bathtub. There’s simply no surf to ride.
We get another tiny flicker of life on Wednesday the 9th of September morning. A 2ft southerly swell with a 6-second period, combined energy at a paltry 29, and clean cross-offshore winds. It’s still poor surf conditions though, and way too small for a proper session.
The next morning, Thursday the 10th of September, offers a similar deal: 2ft from the ESE, 6-second period, energy at 20, and clean again. It’s a tease.
Honestly, the only highlight in the whole 16-day window is that Saturday the 29th of August, and even that is a struggle. The swell is 4ft from the SW, but the short period means it’ll be weak and crumbly, especially at a beach setup like Alassio. The wind is onshore from the SSE at 6 mph, making it messy. With that 4ft, it’s small enough for beginners to handle, but the quality just isn’t there. If you absolutely have to get wet, that’s your best – and only – shot. But honestly, it’d be a frustrating paddle.
Alassio is inconsistent at the best of times, and this run of flatness is pretty normal for this area. Don’t sweat it – forecasts can change, and it’ll come back around.
Stay salty,
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.
