The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, givin' it to you straight for the next couple of weeks.
It's dead quiet out there, folks. Water temp is a ridiculous 81°, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year. Feels like a hot tub. Our only real option is Albenga, a river mouth that's unreliable and best for the groms just learning the ropes.
We start limp. Wednesday the 9th has a tiny 1ft SSW swell with a gutless 4-second period, and the combined wave energy is a weak 7. A sloppy cross-off breeze in the morning turns into a choppy mess in the afternoon. Thursday the 10th and Friday the 11th offer nothing but scraps of ankle-high stuff, though Friday morning has a clean offshore wind from the NW making it look pretty, even with no power.
From Saturday the 12th all the way through to Monday the 22nd of September, it's a total flat spell. Days and days of zero energy, glassy mornings, and flat afternoons. A real boring stretch, but for this area, a long blank run like this isn't totally out of the ordinary.
Then, a tiny flicker on Tuesday the 22nd of September. A 1ft swell from the SE with a 4-second period rolls in for the morning. The wind's a light offshore from the NNW, so it’s clean. The combined energy is a meager 3. That morning window is the best you're gonna get in these 16 days. The afternoon bumps up slightly to 3ft from the southeast, with the energy hitting 35, but it gets messied up by a cross-onshore breeze. The period's too short for any real shape.
The whole outlook is a bummer. The only faint, *faint* highlight is that Tuesday morning the 22nd, and even then, you're grabbing a soft-top for a paddle, not a proper surf. It's a long, dry spell, but you never know when the forecasts might turn.
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.
