The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for the next two and a half weeks at Voltri is a tough one. This is a quiet stretch, and I mean really quiet. We’re looking at a long gap of nothing rideable for the first week and a half, with only a tiny flicker of life right at the end of the forecast window.
The first real chance to get wet doesn’t show up until Friday, September 18th. The whole week before that is just a write-off – flat, messy, or tiny bumps that aren’t worth paddling out for. The water here is running about 82°F, which is far warmer than usual for this time of year, so you’ll be in a t-shirt for sure.
That Friday morning, the 18th, is the one standout in the whole run. The wind will be offshore from the NNW at 9 mph, keeping the surface clean. We’ll see a 3 ft swell rolling in from the SSW with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy is weak, sitting at 91, so it’s not packing much punch. This is a beginner-friendly point break, but it’s inconsistent, so don’t expect set after set. It’s surfable, but very ordinary – small and a bit weak. The wind will be good for shape, though.
The rest of the 16 days? Forget it. Saturday the 19th drops back to tiny 0.7 ft junk, and after that, we’re staring at another flat spell until the 21st, when a tiny 2 ft bump shows up with onshore wind. The period is short at 6 seconds (energy 30) – barely a ripple. The last day on the 22nd of September is glassy but flat with a 0.3 ft dribble.
Bottom line: if you’re desperate, the Friday morning of the 18th is your only shot for a messy, small wave. The rest is a waiting game.

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.
