The Lowdown
Alright mates, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this is a grim stretch for the coast. We're looking at a full 16 days starting now, with barely a ripple to get excited about. Don't get your hopes up; there's a long dry spell ahead.
We kick things off with nothing. Absolutely flat. The first hint of any swell doesn't show up until the morning of the 6th of September, and even then it's a tiny 0.7ft southerly slop with only 1 unit of energy (1). It's glassy though, so if you're desperate for a splash, maybe. That's the pattern for the next week and a half: tiny, weak southerly swells, mostly under 1.6ft, with energy levels never getting out of double digits – a lot of days with nothing at all. The combined energy maxes out at a paltry 35 on the afternoon of the 9th, but that's with a risk of thunderstorms and choppy cross-shore wind. Not exactly a window.
Then from the 11th, it's back to a block of zero swell days, with only the occasional whisper of 0.7ft showing up.
The only spot on the cards here is Albenga (Italy) , a river break that's inconsistent and rarely worth the trip. For this forecast, the water is sitting at a very unusual 81.7°F, which is far warmer than normal for the time of year. But that's the only interesting thing. The swell just isn't there. This entire outlook is a write-off. There are no standouts, no best days, just a whole lot of flat, clean water without any wave energy.

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.
