Table - best surf conditions forecast for Albenga over the next 16 days.
Righto, let's get into it for Albenga. I've got to be straight with you, it's a pretty grim run coming up. The whole 16-day window looks flat or close to it, so don't expect any rides that’ll get your heart pumping.
We’re looking at a river break here, and it's inconsistent at the best of times. Over the next couple of weeks, it's mostly just showing poor surf conditions, day after day. From July 11th right through, there's barely a pulse of energy. The water temperature is a massive 79°, which is a whopping 7° warmer than normal for this time of year – that's very unusual and almost feels like bath water, but there’s nothing to surf in it. You've got a few mornings with glassy conditions, like the 13th and 14th, but the swell is tiny, a miserable 0.3 ft from the SE or S, with weak energy (combined energy values are down around 1 or 2). It's not even worth paddling out for that.
There's a tiny bump of 1 ft to 2 ft from the south around the 18th and 19th, but the period is short at 5 seconds, and the wind is usually cross-on or onshore, messing it up. The energy stays pitifully low (combined energy values around 7 to 14). Then it drops back to nothing. Honestly, the best you can hope for is a glassy morning with no swell at all. For a beach-and-river setup like this with such poor quality and occasional light winds, it looks like a far better spot for a kite surfer on the rare days there's some breeze and that little bump of swell.
So, bottom line: there's nothing on offer. No standout days, no hidden gems. This stretch of flatness is pretty normal for Albenga when the consistency is this way, so don't hold your breath. The forecasts can always change, but as it stands, leave the board 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.
