The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it.
Look, I'm not gonna sugarcoat it. The next 16 days for the Alassio region are a proper bummer for surfers. The forecast is a long, flat stretch with next to nothing on offer. The first half of the period is a total washout, and the little bumps that pop up later are just not enough to get excited about. We're talking a solid gap of about a week, from the start right through to the 24th, with only tiny, weak, and messy waves. The whole setup is a tough one.
Even the best chance, which is a bit of a stretch to call it that, doesn't really deliver. The only real pulse of energy comes in on the afternoon of Monday the 24th of August. We see a moderate combined energy (325) pushing through, with a 6ft swell from the SSW. That's a bit of size, but it's a short period at 6 seconds, so it's going to be a bit fat and crumbly, lacking real punch. The winds are a moderate breeze from the ENE, making it a cross-shore mess with a cross-chop—definitely a kite surfing kind of day, not a paddle surfing one. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, nothing to report there.
After that, it’s right back to the doldrums. The 25th has a brief window of offshore wind, but the swell is a pathetic 1.0ft to 1ft. The rest of the week is a flat, clean, and frustrating nothing. The 31st of August shows a tiny 2ft SE swell, but again, it's just not enough to make a session worthwhile. The consistency is terrible, and the crowds are "sometimes" a problem, but honestly, with this quality, I doubt anyone will be out.
In short, put the board away for a while. This is a classic blank run for Alassio, and it's better to wait for the next system to roll in.
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.
