The Lowdown
Hey there, it’s Rusty. Let’s break down the next 16 days for Voltri.
Honestly, it’s a tough one. The first week and a half is a total write-off. We’ve got a massive gap with no real surf to speak of. The swell energy is almost non-existent, with plenty of zeros and single-digit readings. A tiny 0.3m SSW swell on Tuesday afternoon with an energy of 13 (weak) and a 6-second period is just not enough to get your fins wet.
Things start to look a little less bleak around the 15th of September. Tuesday morning the 15th has a 0.4m SE swell, but the energy is still only 6 (weak) with a 5-second period. The only real highlight is Tuesday afternoon, the 15th, when the same 0.4m S swell has a glassy wind and a combined energy of 11 (weak). It’s clean, but it’s small.
The best call of the whole 16 days is Wednesday the 16th of September. The morning kicks off with a 0.4m SW swell, a period of 8 seconds, and a combined energy of 16 (weak). The wind is glassy, which means the surface will be smooth as butter. It’s still a short-period swell, so for a point break like Voltri, you’re not getting the long, clean lines of a groundswell, but it’ll be rideable for a floater or two. The water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year. Crowds are sometimes a thing here, but with this forecast, you’ll be lucky to see another soul.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
