The Lowdown

Hey folks, Rusty here with the lowdown for the Ligurian coast.

Let's be honest, the next couple of weeks are looking dead flat. It’s one of those periods where the Med just shuts down, leaving you with a whole lot of nothing to ride. Prepare for a long stretch of minimal surf, with only a couple of tiny, barely workable windows.

The only real chance to get in the water, and I mean that generously, is Sunday, August 30th at Voltri. The early morning will be glassy, which is perfect, but the swell is tiny—just 3ft from the SSW with a short 6-second period. The combined energy is weak (44). You can surf it, but it’s ordinary at best. You’ll need a longboard or a foil. Then, over a week later, Wednesday, September 9th gives us another glassy morning with a 2ft S swell, 6-second period, and energy at (43). Again, it’s rideable but very average for small-wave gear.

For the 11th and 12th of September, we get some brisk NNW offshore wind at 12 to 15 mph, but there’s no swell to go with it, so kites might have a better time than us paddlers. This is a true flat spell, pretty standard for this area in the late summer. The water is unusually warm at 81°F, almost 7° warmer than normal, so the swimming is primo.

Hang tight and check back—this kind of run tends to break eventually.

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.
