The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for the Bogliasco stretch.
Honestly, looking over the next two weeks, it's a pretty flat and quiet spell. We’re staring down the barrel of a long dry run. For the first five days, from Saturday the 5th right through to Wednesday the 9th of September, you can hang the board up. The combined wave energy is sitting at zero or near-zero, with tiny little wind slop at best. Not worth paddling out for.
There’s a brief flicker of hope on the morning of Thursday, the 10th. We’ll see a small pulse of swell bump up to 3ft from the SSW, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy hits 87 (weak), so there's a little bit of juice, but not much. The good news is the wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNE, keeping it clean. It’s not a standout by any means, but it’s the most surfable window in the whole forecast. After that, it fades back to tiny, poor surf for the remainder of the period.
For the rest of the run, from the 11th through to the 20th, we are looking at wave heights barely breaking 0.3ft to 1ft with energy readings in the low single digits. The wind does go clean and offshore a few mornings, especially on the 11th, 13th, 14th, and 18th, but there's just no swell to work with. You’d be scratching for anything rideable.
So, the best on offer is a very average Thursday morning, the 10th. It’s a small, weak window, but it's the only time there’s enough water moving to bother. For beginners, that 3ft is totally fine. The water temp is about average for the time of year. Just don't expect much.
Rusty.

Information about the Bogliasco Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Bogliasco provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Bogliasco can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Bogliasco 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 (Bogliasco) 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 Bogliasco 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.
