The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be real with you. I’m looking at this 16-day stretch for our little slice of coast, and it’s a tough one. We’ve got a long, frustrating gap staring us in the face. The first few days are basically a flat calm, and then we’ve got a dry spell that runs all the way from the 4th to the 10th. That’s a solid week with essentially nothing breaking, so don’t be in a rush to wax up just yet. It’s a normal part of the rhythm around here, but that doesn't make it any easier to swallow.
The only real pulse of energy in the whole window shows up on Saturday the 29th. It’s not a monster, but it’s something. The morning will be your best bet. We’re looking at a swell from the SW pushing in at 4.3ft, with a period of 6 seconds. The energy reading is moderate at best (162), so it’s not a powerful groundswell, but the conditions will be clean with a light cross-offshore breeze, which will help keep things tidy. The direction matches what this spot wants, so it could actually be rideable. It’s not going to be an epic day, but for this stretch, it's the highlight. The spot itself, Voltri, is a bit of a tease though—it’s inconsistent, so you gotta be patient. It’s a beginner-friendly point, so if you’re looking to just get a few foam-balls, this could be your shot.
Now, before that, there’s a small bump of energy on the 29th afternoon, but the wind swings cross-on and the swell drops right back down. After that, it's back to the doldrums. We do see a bit of life returning on Friday the 11th of September, but it's still small and the wind will be on it. A light rain and a straight-on breeze isn't exactly the recipe for a great session, and the swell, while coming from the right direction, just doesn't have the muscle behind it to make it worth the paddle.
I know it’s grim, but that’s how it goes sometimes. The water is a balmy 81.9° right now, which is well above average for this time of year, so at least the flat spells are warm ones. Hang tight, and keep an eye on the forecasts. Things change.

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.
