The Lowdown
Alright, let me give it to you straight, mate. Looking at Albenga, that river mouth wave, and it's a grim scene for the next 16 days. We're looking at a long stretch of nothing.
From today right through the end of August and into the first week of September, the ocean's asleep. Friday the 28th had a tiny little knee-high wave from the south with a short period, but the energy was pathetic, like a 34 on the scale. Forget it.
There's a massive gap of flat days. A few mornings have clean, even glassy winds, but without any swell, it's just a pretty pond.
The only tiny spark shows up late. On Monday morning, September 7th, we might see a little bump just 2 feet from the south, still a short period, but the energy climbs a bit to 19. Still weak. The wind will be light offshore, so it'll be clean, but this is an *inconsistent* river break. It's a long shot for a proper wave, only for the most patient beginner.
After that, it goes dead flat all the way to September 12th. Water temp is about normal, nothing special. With no swell and light airs, it's not even a day for the kiteboarders. It's just a blank run, which is standard for this area when the summer swell dries up.
Save the wax. There is nothing worth the effort in this whole 16-day window. Things can change, but as it stands, leave the boards at home.

Information about the Albenga Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Albenga provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Albenga can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Albenga 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 (Albenga) 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 Albenga 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.
