The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the next couple of weeks are shaping up like for the local stretch.
Honestly, it’s going to be a lean run. For the whole 16-day window, the surf looks mostly flat or very small. The first solid chance at something rideable doesn’t even pop up until the morning of Saturday, 29th August, and even then, it’s a real marginal deal. Before that, from now up until the 29th, the waves are tiny and messy – nothing worth paddling out for unless you just want to sit on your board and float.
Saturday, 29th August – the only half-decent morning
The morning of the 29th is about as good as it gets. Alassio will see a small swell pushing in from the SSW, with wave heights around 3 ft, and a period of 7 seconds. Combined wave energy is only about 93, so it’s not powerful, but it’s the biggest we get. The wind is light from the NNW, which is a cross-offshore breeze, keeping the surface clean. This spot is exposed to the south, and the swell direction is straight out of the SSW, which works for the break. It’s an inconsistent spot, and it’s a beginner-friendly wave, so it won’t be pushing hard. Crowds are sometimes an issue here. Water temperature is about average for this time of year.
The rest of that day, and all of Sunday, the swell fades fast, dropping into the 2 ft to 2 ft range. After that, it’s back to flatness with tiny 0.5 ft to 1.0 ft slop and poor conditions right through to the end of the forecast window on 9th September.
Bottom line: There’s one window – the morning of Saturday, 29th August – that is surfable, but it’s small and ordinary. For the whole stretch, there’s nothing that gets the heart racing. If you’re desperate to get wet, that Saturday morning with 3 ft SSW swell and light cross-off wind is your only real shot. But don’t expect much.
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.
