The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. I’ve been staring at the charts for Voltri and, to be honest, it’s a rough stretch ahead. We’ve got a 16-day window here, but don’t get your hopes up too early.
The whole period is dominated by barely-there swell. For the first week, from Monday the 10th through Sunday the 16th, the wave energy is basically zero (0) – it’s flat. There’s nothing to ride. You’ll see a lot of glassy mornings and light offshore breezes, which would be perfect if there was any ocean movement, but there isn’t. It’s a long, quiet gap.
The first real pulse, and I use that term loosely, shows up on Tuesday the 18th. Voltri is a point break, exposed to swell, but it’s also described as inconsistent. On Tuesday morning, we get a tiny 1ft swell from the SW with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy is a weak 20. The wind is light and glassy, so it would be clean, but that’s not enough to get excited about. That little bump fades fast, dropping right back to near nothing for the rest of the week.
The water temperature is a standout, but for the wrong reasons if you’re used to it. At 84°F, that’s a whopping 7°F warmer than average for this time of year – very unusual. You’ll be sweating in your wetsuit, if you wear one at all.
Honestly, there is no standout session here. The best on offer is that Tuesday the 18th morning at Voltri, just because it’s the only time we see any swell at all. With a 1ft, 6-second swell and glassy winds, it’s a longboard or a piece of foam for complete beginners. But even then, it’s a long shot. The rest of the 16 days is a write-off. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, this kind of blank run isn’t too surprising, but it still stings.
Keep an eye on the charts – it can’t stay this flat forever.

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.
