The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s lay it out straight – this is a grim stretch for Alassio. We’re talking ten days of nothing, and even when a tiny bit of swell finally shows up, it’s barely a blip. The water is running way warmer than usual for this time of year, about 83°F, which is a big anomaly.
From August 7th right through August 16th, the surf is either flat or so tiny and choppy it’s not worth paddling out. We get some glassy mornings, like on the 9th, 10th, and 13th, which is a real tease, but with zero swell. The wind is light and clean, but the ocean has no power at all.
You finally get a pulse on the morning of Monday, August 17th. The swell bumps up to about 2ft from the south, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy is still weak, and the direction is from the south which isn't ideal for the exposed south-facing spot. There’s a light cross-offshore breeze from the north-northeast at 6 mph, which will keep the surface clean. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. The crowd factor is listed as "sometimes," so it’s not totally empty, but with conditions this marginal, it’s unlikely to be busy.
The rest of the month into August 22nd stays tiny, with only a few knee-high pulses that are mostly blown out by onshore winds in the afternoons.
So, here it is: keep your expectations real low. The best on offer is the morning of August 17th, and even that is a stretch if you’re looking for a proper wave. It’s just a little bump of clean, weak energy.

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.
