The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a tough one. The whole 16-day window for Voltrie is about as flat as it gets. We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak waves that just aren’t going to give you anything worth paddling out for. There’s a gap that runs from the start all the way through to the middle of the second week before we see even a hint of life, but even then, it’s nothing to get excited about.
Voltri (point) is the only spot on the cards, and it’s inconsistent at the best of times, which is a shame because the setup is usually fun. For the first week, from Wednesday the 29th of July right through to Sunday the 9th of August, you’re looking at waves that barely hit 1 ft. The swell is tiny, short period stuff, mostly from the SSW, with combined energies barely scratching double digits – we’re talking 6 (weak) at best. The water is running at 82°, which is a massive 6° above normal for this time of year. That’s very unusual, so you’ll be swimming in bathwater, but there’s just no push.
The morning of Saturday the 1st of August gives you a clean 1 ft SW swell with a light offshore wind, but it’s so weak (energy of 6) it’s barely a ripple. The morning of Thursday the 6th of August offers a similar 1.0 ft SSW swell with clean offshore winds (energy at 6). It’s clean, but you’ll be fighting for a knee-high wave that’s inconsistent.
Then, there’s a proper dead spell from Saturday the 8th of August through Monday the 10th of August where the energy drops to zero. Honestly, it’s more interesting for a swim or a kite session if the wind picks up, because the surf is non-existent.
The only real glimmer, and I mean the only one, comes late on Wednesday the 12th of August. The afternoon should see a tiny 2 ft S swell with a period of 5 seconds, but the combined energy finally bumps up to 18 (still weak). The wind goes glassy, which is a treat. It’s still a small, weak wave, but if you’re desperate for a splash on a longboard, that’s your best window. Thursday the 13th of August morning has a clean 1.0 ft SSW swell, but again, it’s tiny.
Forget any big standouts. The best on offer is that Wednesday afternoon glass-off, but it’s a long way off and still tiny. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a flat spell.
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.
