Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's happening at Bogliasco. I've got to be straight with you – for the next couple of weeks, it's looking pretty flat and quiet. The swell energy is extremely low, with combined energy readings barely cracking double digits most days. We're talking about a long stretch of minimal, short-period swell that's just not going to produce much worth getting wet for.
Looking at the first few days, from Monday the 6th through to the end of the first week, it's a tough watch. Swell heights are hovering around 0.7ft to 1ft with periods of just 4-6 seconds – that's windswell, pure and simple, with no push behind it. The combined energy is weak, ranging from 1 to 15. Winds are light and variable, with a few glassy mornings in there, but even those clean conditions can't polish a turd. Tuesday morning the 7th, for instance, we have glassy conditions but only 0.7ft of swell – it's not surfable. Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th might show a tiny pulse from the SSE, but we're still looking at ankle-snappers at best. Honestly, it's more of a swimming and sunbathing forecast than a surf one.
We then hit a dead zone from Wednesday the 15th through to Thursday the 16th, where there's absolutely no swell recorded. The ocean goes totally flat. That's a full week and a half with basically nothing on offer for a surfer.
The only faint glimmer of hope comes way out on Sunday the 19th of July. The morning shows a bump to 1ft from the SW with a period of 5 seconds, and combined energy finally climbs to 8. The wind is cross-off from the NNE at only 3 mph, so conditions should be clean. This is the best the whole forecast gets, but let's be realistic – 1ft at 5 seconds is barely rideable on a longboard. It's a standout only because everything else is so poor. The crowd factor here is listed as "sometimes," so you might have a few other hopeful souls out there on logs, but that's the only game in town.
For the whole 16-day outlook, there's no real size, no power, and nothing that gets the heart racing. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, with no anomalies reported, so at least it won't be freezing while you're sitting on your board looking at nothing.
Stay patient. It'll turn around eventually.
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.
