The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Alassio’s got cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with hardly any surf worth paddling out for. The first recommendation doesn’t pop up until the very end of the period, so we’ve got a big gap of nearly two weeks of nothing. For the first 16 days, the combined energy of all swells directed here is mostly a flat zero or single-digit weak energy (less than 100), with the waves tiny, weak, and messy. The wind is often onshore or cross-shore, and the period is short, so there’s no real push. It’s pretty normal for this area to have these blank runs, so don’t get too discouraged—forecasts can change.
The only real standout is a very late arrival. On Tuesday afternoon, 28 July, Alassio sees a little bump. The swell pushes up to 3 ft from the ESE, with a period of 5 seconds. The combined energy is still weak at 41, but it’s the best we’ll see. The morning before that, Monday 28 July, has a tiny 1.0 ft pulse from the SE with a light cross-offshore breeze from the NNE, making it clean but small. The best bet is Tuesday afternoon, even though the wind is onshore from the SE, the wave size is the highest. It’s a beginner-level break, so if you’re just learning, this might be a window to splash around. But for anyone wanting a proper wave, it’s pretty grim.
Crowds at Alassio can be an issue sometimes, but honestly, with this lack of swell, I wouldn’t worry about a packed lineup.
Stick with it, and remember, the ocean can always surprise you.

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.
