The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming for Voltri.
It’s a pretty grim outlook for the most part. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with no real surf from now through the middle of next week. Nothing going on Friday the 11th, the weekend, or the start of the following week. That’s a lot of flat days.
The one small window of something worth looking at is on Thursday the 17th of September in the morning. We get a tiny 3ft S swell, with a short 6-second period, but it’ll be clean with an offshore NNW breeze. Combined wave energy is only 67 (weak). The water temp is about average for the time of year. Voltri is an exposed point break, so it can pick up that southerly energy. It’s an inconsistent spot, and crowds are only possible. This is the only thing close to a highlight, but it’s really just small, clean, and for a longboard or a beginner. Surf quality is poor.
After that, it’s back to near nothing. A little 1ft bump on the 17th afternoon, then more flatness. There’s another tiny pulse on Saturday the 26th of September morning with 3ft SSW swell and a clean offshore wind, combined energy 49 (weak), but it’s still just ordinary.
Overall, this is a lean run. The only clean window is the morning of the 17th, and that’s not saying much. It won’t stay this quiet forever, but for now, keep the board in the car and wait.
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.
