The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. I’ve stared at the charts for this stretch of coast, and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough watch. The whole 16-day window is looking mighty flat. We’re not talking about picking the best of a few options; we’re talking about a whole lot of nothing. There is a massive gap of surf here from the start right through to the very end of the run. We don't see a single decent wave on offer. That said, in this area, a blank run like this is pretty normal; the ocean just shuts down, and we have to wait for the next system.
Let’s run through it anyway. For Alassio, the whole forecast is a bust. From Thursday, September 10th right through to Friday, September 25th, it’s all "poor surf conditions". The swell is a joke – tiny 0.3ft to 1ft scraps of windswell, with weak combined energy rarely cracking double digits (max 28). The period is mostly short and weak too, under 9 seconds.
Honestly, the only sliver of something that looks halfway ridable comes way out on Monday, September 21st. The morning shows a wee 1ft from the SW with a 9-second period, and a clean offshore wind from the NNW at 12 mph. The combined energy is still only 12, so it’s dribble, but at least it would be clean dribble. The afternoon picks up a touch to 1ft SW, period 9 seconds, with a clean cross-off breeze from the NE, and the energy jumps to 28. If you’re desperate and have a log, you could probably get a few knee-high bumps. But make no mistake, this is not surf for anyone looking for a real ride. A beginner might get a push on a foamie if they’re lucky.
The rest of the days are either flat, blown out by onshore winds, or just have no energy at all. There’s nothing here to get excited about. Keep the board in the car, maybe go for a swim, and check back in a week or two.
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.
