The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s see what’s cooking for Alassio over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a dead quiet stretch. The whole 16-day window is mostly flat. There are no real standouts, no session you’d circle on the calendar. The first bit of surf doesn’t even show up until the 2nd of August, and it’s a tiny little ripple. You’ll hit days with absolutely nothing – like the 3rd, 6th, 12th, and 13th of August are totally flat. This is one of those runs where you’re better off doing a beach clean-up or just having a cold one.
Let’s break it down. On Sunday morning, the 2nd of August, you’re looking at a tiny 1.0ft swell from the southwest, with a short period of 5 seconds. The combined energy is barely a whisper (7). It’s a cross-shore breeze, so the surface is a bit bumpy. Not worth paddling out for.
Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th are the same story – flat or near-flat. On Tuesday morning the 4th, there’s a 1.0ft from the southeast, period of 4 seconds, energy at just 2. The wind is light cross-offshore, so it’s clean, but there’s nothing to ride.
Wednesday the 5th, Thursday the 6th, Friday the 7th – all the same tune. Tiny bits of swell, mostly under 2ft, with poor winds. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing special.
The only slight flicker comes on the morning of Saturday the 15th of August. You get a 1ft swell from the southwest, period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy climbs to a moderate 30. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the north, so conditions are clean. Still, it’s a tiny wave – only for the most patient longboarder or a beginner just wanting to stand up.
Then on Monday the 17th of August, the morning shows a 2ft swell from the south-southwest, period of 7 seconds, with 31 energy. The wind is offshore from the northwest, glassy conditions. That’s the best of the bunch, but it’s still a small, weak wave and won’t break with any power. The break is Alassio, an exposed beach setup that’s inconsistent and best for beginners. It’s a spot that sometimes gets crowded, but with this lack of surf, you’ll have the whole place to yourself.
Bottom line: If you’re looking to paddle, you’re out of luck. The setup is more interesting for a kite surfer on a light wind day than a surfer with a shortboard. Forecasts can change, but as it stands, this is a blank run.
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.
