The Lowdown
Alright folks, let’s talk about Alassio. I’ll be straight with you – this 16-day stretch is a tough one for surf. The forecast shows almost nothing worth paddling for. The swell is tiny, the periods are short, and the wind is often onshore or cross-off but not doing us any favours. For a spot that’s already inconsistent and exposed to a south swell, we’re just not getting the goods.
Kicking off Sunday 19 July – morning sees a tiny 2 ft south swell with a short 5-second period, but the wind is cross-off from NNW at 6 mph, so it’s clean. Combined energy is a weak 16 – hardly enough to ride. By afternoon it’s onshore and even smaller. Monday 20 July is similar: 1.0 ft in the morning, 1 ft in the afternoon – both poor. Tuesday 21 July is flat as a pancake, glassy morning but no swell. That pattern continues: Wednesday 22 July has a pathetic 0.3 ft from the west, Thursday 23 July flat, Friday 24 July a 0.3 ft again, Saturday 25 July flat – you get the idea. Through the end of July and into early August, the biggest we see is 1 ft on Saturday 1 August afternoon with a 8-second period from SSW, combined energy 31 – still weak. That’s the “best” of a bad lot, but even then the wind is onshore from ESE at 6 mph, so it’s messy.
Water temperature is 83°F, which is far warmer than normal for the time of year – over 9° warmer than average. That’s unusual, but it doesn’t help the waves.
Honestly, there’s nothing here that qualifies as a standout. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for surf. Alassio is a beginner break that rarely breaks anyway, so this kind of blank run is pretty normal for the area. Don’t give up hope – forecasts can change, but for now, leave the boards at home.

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.
