The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on offer for the Albenga region.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim outlook for the next 16 days. The surf is going to be a total no-show for the most part. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing, with only a few tiny, rippled bumps that won’t be worth paddling out for. The water is running much warmer than average for this time of year, sitting at 81°F at Albenga – that’s over 7°F warmer than usual, which is very unusual.
The first chance to get wet comes up on Saturday the 29th of August. It’s a river mouth break, so it’s inconsistent at the best of times. That afternoon, we’ll see a weak 4ft swell from the SW, but with a lousy 6-second period. The wave energy is a modest 128, and that SE wind is onshore, making it a marginal call. Not one to get excited about.
After that, the door slams shut. From Sunday the 30th right through to Tuesday the 8th of September, there’s a dead run of days with no surf to speak of. You’ll see some clean mornings with cross-offshore breezes, but nothing to ride. On Wednesday the 9th of September, the swell tries to make a comeback with a 2ft southerly swell, but again the period is only 6 seconds and the winds are onshore. The energy is a weak 23. It’s still poor conditions.
The rest of the outlook through to the 13th of September is the same story – flat or tiny, messy waves. There’s only one break on the cards, and it’s not delivering. When a spot is as inconsistent as Albenga, a blank run like this isn’t that surprising. We’ll have to wait for a change in the forecast.
Rusty.

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.
