Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the Ligurian Sea has got cooking for us.
Honestly, for the next couple of weeks, it's a pretty quiet picture. For the first ten days or so, we are staring at flat to tiny, jumbled conditions. The combined wave energy is barely registering, with values mostly between 1 and 29 – that’s weak stuff. The water is sitting at a very unusual 78°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but there's no surf to enjoy it with.
We've got a long dry spell from now right through to late July. The first glimmer of anything ridable doesn't pop up until Tuesday, July 21st. There is a small window early that morning at Diano Marina. We'll see a minor pulse of swell sneaking in from the SW, around 4ft. The period is only 7 seconds, so it’s a short-period, windswell-type wave, but combined energy is moderate at 123. The real saviour here is the wind. It's due NW at almost nothing, going glassy. That’s a major positive for a spot that's exposed to southerly swells.
That morning on the 21st is the only real standout in this whole forecast. For beginners, that 4ft is just about manageable, but the inconsistency and poor quality on either side of it makes it tricky. Don't expect much from the following days. After that brief pulse, we're back to minimal energy through the 22nd, with poor conditions and light onshore winds creeping back in. It’s not a total write-off, but it’s as close as it gets.
Keep your eyes on the forecasts, because with this kind of blank run, things can only get better.
Rusty.

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