The Lowdown
Alright folks, it’s Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening in the water over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: this is a tough stretch. We’re looking at a long, dry spell before anything even worth paddling out for shows up. The first real pulse of energy doesn’t arrive until Sunday the 28th of July, and even then it’s a marginal call. Before that, we’ve got over a week of flat, weak, or just plain messy conditions. From the 19th through the 28th, it’s a wasteland. Small, wind-affected junk and long periods of zero swell. If you’re jonesing for a wave, you might want to take up a different hobby for a week.
The only break on the radar here is Levanto, an advanced spot that’s pretty inconsistent. It needs a solid SW swell to wake up, and that’s not coming easy.
The best, and really the only, window of opportunity looks to be on Sunday morning, July 28th. We’ve got a small SW swell pushing in at 3 ft with a 6-second period. The energy is still weak, only clocking in at 82 (moderate energy). But the wind is the saving grace – light and variable, but it’s a cross-off from the SSE. That’ll keep the surface clean. The water is a scorching 83° – that’s much warmer than normal for this time of year, like swimming in a bath. Don’t expect a crowd, but with it being inconsistent, you might have to be patient. It’s not a standout by any means, but it’s the only game in town.
The following week fades back into flatness and tiny, unrideable slop. Nothing else on the horizon worth mentioning.
So, there you have it. One very small window, one spot. Fingers crossed the forecasts change, but for now, we’re in a holding pattern.
Rusty.

Information about the Levanto Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Levanto provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Levanto can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Levanto 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 (Levanto) 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 Levanto 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.
Levanto is 1 km (1 miles) from Sestri Levante. If you plan a holiday in West Coast of Italy, look for hotels and other accommodation in Sestri Levante. Sestri Levante has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
