The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve had a good look at the charts, and I’m not gonna beat around the bush—this is a dead run for the Ligurian coast. We’re looking at a 16-day stretch from July 29th all the way to August 13th, and there’s not a single session that’s worth getting wet for. The forecast keeps serving up tiny, gutless swells that never climb above 2 ft, with energy numbers that barely register. You’re facing a long drought with no real waves.
Let’s run through it. The first few days are a total flat calm. Wednesday the 29th into Thursday the 30th? Zilch—just a few little wind bumps on Wednesday afternoon, and then Thursday morning goes glassy but dead flat. The water temp at Alassio is a crazy 27°, which is 4° warmer than the long-term average for this time of year. That’s a heck of a warm anomaly, but no waves, so it’s a moot point.
Friday the 31st through Sunday, August 3rd? We get these weak, short-period pulses from the SSW—swell heights around 0.7 ft to 1 ft, with periods of just 4-5 seconds. The combined energy levels are pitiful, with readings like 1, 2, 11, and 8. That’s as low as it gets. Winds are a mix—some light offshore or cross-off breezes on the mornings, which would clean things up, but with nothing to clean, it’s all for nothing.
From Monday, August 4th, all the way to Wednesday, August 13th, it’s the same grind. The odd 0.7 ft to 2 ft shows up, but the periods stay short, and the energy never breaks 17. The surf conditions are consistently marked as ‘poor’. There are a few glassy or clean mornings thanks to light northerly winds, but the swell just isn’t there to make it happen.
So, what’s the call? Honestly, this setup is better suited for a flat-water paddle than a surf. If you’re itching for a wave, don’t hold out. Forecasts can always flip, but right now, it’s a total donut.
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.
