Table - best surf conditions forecast for Albenga over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – the next 16 days are looking pretty grim for a paddle. We’ve got a long stretch of flatness ahead, so don't get your hopes up.
We start this Thursday morning, July 9, with a tiny pulse of 0.7ft from the south at a super short 4 seconds. That's barely a ripple. The combined energy is a measly 1, so weak you wouldn't believe it. The wind is a light cross-shore from the NE, but with that size, it’s a non-starter. Afternoon doesn't get any better, with onshore winds from the SE.
The entire first week is a write-off. We’re looking at flat spells from July 14 right through to July 23, with only a few days offering up a pathetic 1ft or 2ft from the south. The energy never gets above 27, which is still weak. There are a few glassy mornings around July 13 and 14, but with the swell at 0.3ft, you’d be better off floating in a bathtub. The pick of a very bad bunch might be the morning of Friday, July 10, with a light cross-offshore breeze from the NNE and 0.7ft of south swell, or the morning of Saturday, July 11, with a bit more wind and 1.0ft of southeasterly, but it’s still just not surfable.
The second week offers nothing. From July 19 onwards, there are long gaps of zero swell. Honestly, the water temp is about average for the time of year, but you won't be in it long enough to care.
Look, with this kind of south swell direction and the river mouth setup at Albenga, combined with the fact that it’s inconsistent and rarely breaks with any quality, this is a total blank. For a few of those afternoons with a bit of onshore wind and that tiny swell, the setup might look more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer, but even that’s a stretch.
Keep an eye on the forecasts, it tends not to stay this poor for long, but for now, boards stay in the garage.
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.
