Alright, Rusty here again. Let's run that down in feet and miles.
Right from the jump, it's a dry spell. The whole 16-day window is a tough one. The first week and a half is flat – almost nothing to work with. There’s a long gap with no real surf on offer from now until about the 21st of July. Most days are showing tiny 0.7ft to 1.6ft slop with short periods, onshore breezes, and just no energy. The combined swell energy is often in the single digits, which is weak.
Now, there is one tiny glimmer at the tail end. On Tuesday the 21st of July, we might finally see a pulse. Tuesday afternoon, the swell builds to about 5.2ft from the SSW with a period of 6 seconds. That’s short-period windswell, so it’ll be a bit lumpy and disorganized, but it’s the biggest we’ll see by a long shot. The combined energy jumps to a moderate 306. The wind is cross-shore from the SSW at 9 mph, which isn't ideal but it's rideable.
Our only real option here is Albenga, a river mouth setup. It’s inconsistent, so don't expect a constant line-up, but this might be the only time the bank wakes up. The swell is over 5ft, so it might be a bit much for beginners. The direction from the SSW matches up with the optimum swell direction for the break (SSE), so there's some hope that the banks will handle it.
For the morning of the 21st, it's glassy with 1.6ft from the SE and a 5-second period – clean, but small. The real window is Tuesday afternoon, but keep in mind it's nearly two weeks out, so don't book your flights just yet. After that pulse, it drops back down again.
Overall, it’s a pretty blank period with only that one standout at the very end of the second week. Keep an eye on it.

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.
