The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a serious look at what’s on the table for Alassio over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a long, quiet stretch.
Right now, starting from Thursday the 6th of August, we’re staring at a flat spell. The ocean’s got nothing for us – the combined swell energy is zero (0). The wind is light, and the water temperature is about average for the time of year, which is not much comfort when there are no waves to ride. This flatness drags on and on.
We see a few tiny bumps of swell on Friday morning the 7th, but it’s only 0.3 ft from the SW with a short 7-second period. The energy is practically nothing (2). Honestly, that’s a waste of a look. The wind is cross-shore, and the conditions are poor. This pattern of tiny, weak swell sticks around through to the 17th of August. There are a few glassy mornings, like Sunday the 9th, where the wind is light, but the swell is completely absent. It’s a long gap without any real surf on offer.
Finally, after more than a week of nothing, there’s a glimmer on Tuesday morning the 18th of August. Swell starts to fill in from the SSW at 4 ft with a 6-second period. The combined swell energy jumps up to a moderate 176, but it’s not powerful. The wind is a clean, cross-offshore breeze from the NE, which is a major positive for keeping things tidy. This is the only moment in the whole window that offers a chance. Alassio is an exposed, south-facing beach break, and this is a small, short-period swell. It’ll be rideable, but ordinary, not a standout. The afternoon turns onshore and gets messy.
After that, it fades again quickly, with the swell dropping back to ankle-biters and the wind turning awkward.
To be honest, this is a bad run. For the vast majority of the 16-day period, there is flat-to-poor surf. The one morning on Tuesday the 18th of August is your best bet, but even then, it’s just a marginal, clean-ish session on a tiny swell. This is more normal for the area when the surf is this blank for so long. Keep an eye on it, but don’t get your hopes up.
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.
