The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up.
It’s been a dead quiet start, and I mean dead. From the 7th through to the 17th, there’s absolutely nothing to ride. The combined energy is zero for most of that time, so don’t bother checking the buoys.
The first real sign of life hits on Friday, September 18th. We’ve got a clean offshore wind from the NNW at about 9 mph, and a small pulse of SSW swell. The morning shows a 4 ft SSW swell with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate at 218. It’s not a classic, but it’s the first rideable wave in a week. The afternoon goes glassy with a 4 ft SSW swell, but the energy drops to 135. It’s a bit ordinary, but for a break that’s inconsistent, it’s something.
That’s your lot. The rest of the week after the 18th fizzles out into tiny, weak bumps. The best bet is that Friday morning, and it’s only for the keen. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing to write home about.
So, if you’re aching for a surf, Friday the 18th at Voltri is your only shot. The wind is offshore and clean, but the swell is small and short. It’s a beginner-friendly point break, but don’t get your hopes up. After that, it’s back to the waiting game.
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.
