The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a long, hard look at what’s brewing for our stretch of coast. I’ve got to be straight with you: the next 16 days are looking bleak. We’re looking at a long stretch of flatness with barely a whisper of rideable energy.
Right now, we’re in a flat spell. The first couple of days offer nothing but tiny, poor surf – we’re talking 0.3ft to 0.7ft of weak, short-period slop. The water is a balmy 82°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s small comfort when there’s nothing to ride. From the morning of the 4th of September right through the afternoon of the 8th, it’s a complete dead zone – zero swell, just clean, flat, glassy mornings. That’s a solid five-day gap with absolutely nothing on offer.
The first sign of life comes on the morning of Wednesday the 9th of September at Alassio. We’ll see a tiny pulse of 1ft swell from the SW with a period of 7 seconds, and the energy is weak (31). The wind is clean and cross-off from the NNW, so it’ll be tidy, but it’s micro-surf at best. The morning of the 10th sees a bit more wind from the NW at 12 mph, keeping it clean, but the swell is still pathetic at 1ft. Honestly, this is all a long way from anything you’d want to paddle out for.
The outlook doesn't get any better. After the 10th, we’re back into a flat pattern. The 11th of September morning offers a tiny 1ft SSW swell, but it’s inconsistent and weak. From the 12th right through the 16th, it’s flat again with clean, offshore mornings but no surf. The only glimmer is the morning of the 17th of September, which shows a glassy 0.3ft from the SW – and that’s just a whisper.
There is no standout period here. No rideable waves to get excited about. The best we can hope for is a little clean, tiny bump on the 9th and 10th of September, but that’s for foam boards and beginners only. The combined energy of all swells is never more than 35, so we’re in a weak, drawn-out flat spell. It’s one of those runs where it’s better to wax the longboard and just go for a paddle.
Stay patient, stay tuned, and forecasts can change. For now, the ocean is taking a long nap.
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.
