The Lowdown
Right then, gather ‘round. Rusty here, and I’ve got the lowdown on the local stretch. It’s a bit of a flat spell we’re in for, to be honest, so keep that wax on the shelf for a while.
We’re looking at the next 16 days, and honestly, the surf is pretty much a no-go for most of it. There’s just no push. The first real chance to even think about paddling out doesn’t roll around until Wednesday, September 9th. That’s over a week of waiting. The only spot we’ve got to look at is Voltri, a point break that’s beginner-friendly but inconsistent.
Before that, there is a tiny window on Saturday, August 29th morning. The water is sitting at a very weird 82°F, which is 7°F warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s a proper anomaly, feels like bath water. For a moment, we get a 3ft SSW swell with a weak 75 units of energy. The wind is a cross-off from the NNE, which keeps it clean, but the period is a short 6 seconds, so you’re looking at weak, fat waves. It’s surfable, but only just. That’s as good as it gets for a while, because it drops right off after that morning.
For the rest of the first week and into the second, the tables show flatness or tiny, unrideable bumps. You’ll see days of glassy conditions and offshore breezes, but there’s zero swell to work with. It’s a classic case of the ocean taking a holiday.
Then, finally, on Wednesday, September 9th morning, something flickers to life. A clean 3ft S swell, with a 6-second period and 75 units of energy, shows up. With a light offshore from the N, it’ll be clean. That’s the standout of the entire run, but it’s still just a weak, small wave.
For the rest of the outlook, it’s just tiny scraps and onshore winds, with nothing worth getting wet for. If you're desperate, the August 29th morning or the September 9th morning are your only two options. Otherwise, it looks pretty grim. Keep the board in the car just in case, but don’t hold your breath.
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.
