The Lowdown
Alright, I’ll put it in feet for those of you who think in those numbers. Rusty again. The news ain’t good for Albenga over the next 16 days. There’s a massive gap of surf-less days from now, the 30th of July, right through to early August. Nothing. Zero. Every entry is “poor surf conditions” – flat or waves so small and short period they’re not even worth the walk. With the light winds, a kite surfer might get a bit of a go, but for a trad paddle surfer, it’s a bust.
Now, come Sunday, the 9th of August, we finally see a teeny pulse. The morning is glassy with a 2ft south swell, period 6 seconds, and the energy is only at that weak 28 mark. That’s not groundswell, that’s just a ripple. The beach break will be soft and weak, and only the morning has clean conditions before the onshore kicks in. It’s still poor surf, but it’s the only chance for a knee-high roll-in.
The days after that, Monday the 10th and Tuesday the 11th, are similar rubbish: 0.6ft to 1ft waves from the SSE with teeny energy. If you’re a total beginner on a foamie and the glassy mornings line up, you might get a squirt, but that’s the absolute most you can hope for. The second week of August goes flat again with nothing. Albenga is just not producing any surf worth driving for. Hang tough, check the forecasts later, but for now, this stretch is a write-off. Rusty out.

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.
