The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down this same stretch in the numbers you might be more familiar with.
We’re staring down a long, quiet patch right from the start. From Saturday the 18th through the early part of the week starting the 22nd, it’s barely a ripple. Kook-sized waves from 1ft to 2ft, with no punch at all – combined energy values in the single digits and teens. It’s all just poor conditions, and honestly, you’re better off doing something else.
That lull stretches all the way until the one bright spot on Sunday the 26th. The only real standout is Albenga, a river break. Sunday morning delivers a 3-4ft swell out of the southwest, with a period of 5 seconds. The combined swell energy is 80 (still pretty weak), but the wind is blowing cross-off from the north at 9 mph, which’ll keep it clean. That’s your best shot, and pretty much your only shot of the whole 16-day run. Water temp is about normal for July, nothing wild.
The next day, Monday the 27th, has a 3ft swell from the southeast with a 6-second period and 78 energy. Mornings stay clean with a light north cross-off breeze at 9 mph, but it’s still just a weak, small swell.
After that, from Tuesday the 28th all the way to Sunday the 2nd of August, it’s back to tiny or no surf. A couple mornings are glassy, like the 25th, but there’s simply no swell.
Bottom line: if you want a wave, you’re looking at the morning of July 26th at Albenga. It’s slim pickings, but that’s the spot.
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.
