The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down the next couple of weeks.
First off, for the first week and a half, from Thursday, September 10th through to Wednesday, September 16th, the surf is a total bust. It’s flat, weak, and the combined energy never gets above 13 (13). The water is a warm 82°F (82°F), which is far warmer than normal for this time of year, so it’s really just a swim.
Things get a little interesting on Thursday, September 17th. The morning at Alassio shows a 3 ft (3 ft) swell from the SSW, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy hits 79 (79), which is still weak but at least it’s something. The wind is a clean cross-off from the WNW at 3 mph (3 mph), so it’ll be clean. The swell is small, so it’s fine for beginners, but the wave comment says it’s “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” so don’t expect a standout.
The best window comes on Tuesday, September 22nd. The morning session at Alassio shows a 3 ft (3 ft) SSE swell with a 7-second period. The combined energy touches 104 (104) – finally, some moderate wave energy. The wind is a clean cross-off from the NNW at 3 mph (3 mph), keeping it glassy. The crowd situation is “sometimes,” so you might have a few others out, but it won’t be packed. The swell direction (SE) isn’t the optimum S direction for Alassio, but the clean conditions make it the best option.
Then the following Thursday, September 24th, the morning shows a similar story: 3 ft (3 ft) from the ESE with a 7-second period, and combined energy at 113 (113). Again, the wind is light and offshore from the NNW at 6 mph (6 mph), so it’ll be clean. It’s not a standout, but it’s the only real window of fun.
The rest of the time after that fades back into tiny, weak surf. So, if you’re looking to paddle out, aim for the mornings of September 22nd and 24th. It’s not gonna be epic, but it’s the best we’ve got.
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.
