The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
Honestly, looking out over the next 16 days, there’s a whole lot of nothing on the cards. We’ve got a long, dry gap stretching from now all the way through to the 17th of August. For the better part of two weeks, you’ll be staring at flat, clean conditions but absolutely no rideable swell at Albenga (Italy). It’s one of those quiet spells where the river mouth just isn’t doing anything. On the 11th, Tuesday morning turns glassy, but with no swell height, it’s just a pretty, flat ocean. It’s a proper blank run for the area.
Then, finally, on Tuesday the 18th of August, we get a pulse of life. The morning shows a jump to 4 ft swell from the SSW with a 6-second period. The combined swell energy reads 176, so there’s at least some push behind it. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the NNE, so it’ll be clean on the face. It’s surfable, but don’t expect greatness – the conditions are ordinary and the period is short, so it won’t have much grunt. Still, if you’ve been waiting for a paddle, that’s your only real window. The afternoon turns onshore and drops in size. After that, it fades back to tiny, weak waves for the rest of the week.
There’s nothing here that’s a true standout. The best on offer is that Tuesday the 18th morning session at Albenga – a lifeline after a long drought, but you’ll need to be hungry for it.
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.
