The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a real flat spell ahead. We're looking at a solid 16-day window with barely a ripple, and the first recommendation isn't exactly setting the world on fire. The water is sitting at a very unusual 81°F, which is way warmer than normal for this time of year.
Our only real option is Voltri, but it's an inconsistent point break. The best of a very flat bunch comes on Saturday the 12th of September. There's a tiny 0.7ft SSW swell pushing in, with a short period of just 4 seconds. The combined wave energy is weak, sitting at only (3). The saving grace here is the wind: a light 3 mph offshore breeze from the NNW, which will keep the surface clean for any small waves that show up. It's a beginner-friendly spot, but don't expect much more than a knee-high dribbler.
After that, things go completely dead. From Sunday the 13th right through to Saturday the 26th of September, there are long gaps where there is no surf to recommend. You'll get the odd 0.3ft reading late in the period, like on the 25th of September with a glassy afternoon and a 0.3ft SW swell, but that's barely a bump. With the combined energy struggling to hit double digits in places, it’s a washout.
To be fair, a blank run like this isn't unusual for an inconsistent spot like Voltri. Hoping the long-range forecasts change, but for now, it’s a paddle around the harbour kind of fortnight.
Rusty.

Information about the Voltri Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Voltri provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Voltri can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Voltri 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 (Voltri) 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 Voltri 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.
Voltri is 15 km (9 miles) from the city of Genova. If you plan a holiday in West Coast of Italy, look for hotels and other accommodation in Genova. Genova has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
