The Lowdown
Righto, grab a coffee, let’s have a look at what’s on the table for Alassio over the next couple of weeks. Straight up, it’s a pretty quiet picture, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it. The first surf we can even talk about hangs on until Saturday the 22nd of August, so that’s a solid week of flat, lacklustre conditions before anything happens.
Saturday 22nd August – The morning brings a tiny, weak pulse from the SSE. We’re looking at swell around 2ft, with a short period of 6 seconds. The combined energy is low, at just (47), so it’s pretty weak stuff. On the plus side, the wind is glassy, making for a clean surface. It’s surfable if you’re desperate for a paddle, but perfectly ordinary. The afternoon gets messy as the wind swings onshore.
Sunday 23rd August – The morning is the most interesting window in the whole outlook. There’s a noticeable bump in energy, with a SW swell at 5ft and a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy jumps into three digits (195), so there’s finally some push behind it. Winds are light and cross-offshore from the north, keeping the faces clean. This is the standout slot for a surf. Alassio is an exposed beach break, and the optimum swell direction here is from the south, so this SW swell is in the right ballpark. It’s still not huge, but it’s the cleanest you’ll get. For anyone who knows the break, this is your best bet.
After that, it pretty much dies again. Monday through Wednesday, the swell bottoms out, with minimal energy and poor conditions. The wind gets stronger on Tuesday afternoon anyway, so we’re done.
To wrap it up: there’s only one real highlight, and that’s Sunday morning. After a week of waiting, you get a couple of hours of clean, organised waves on the 23rd. Not a classic two weeks for Alassio, but that’s the read.

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.
