The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a real look at what’s coming down the line for the coming days.
Honestly, the next 16 days are a bit of a scratchy run for us. We’ve got one brief moment that’s worth getting wet for, and the rest is mostly flat or poor quality. The water is sitting at a very unusual 83° – that’s more than 3° warmer than it should be for this time of year, so it’s going to feel like a bath.
The only real action is a stand-out window on Saturday the 29th of August morning. Voltri will see a clean 5ft swell, coming from the SW with a period of 6 seconds and moderate wave energy (223). It’s a clean, peeling right point break. The wind will be light offshore out of the N at 6 mph, so it’ll be smooth and glassy for the dawn session. This is by far the best on offer, but with the crowd factor listed as "sometimes," expect a few local heads in the lineup.
Beyond that? The rest of the month and into September is a long, drawn-out dry spell. For the rest of the forecast period, the swell is tiny or non-existent, and the wind and conditions are mostly poor. There’s a little bump on the morning of Sunday the 6th of September with a 4ft SSW swell and moderate energy (141) but the wind is light offshore and the waves are just ordinary. Not enough to call it a standout.
For the second week, it’s flat and mostly hopeless. The swell drops to a dribble, the wind goes onshore or cross-on from the SE, and there’s nothing to recommend. If you’re not a beginner, you’ll want to wait for a better forecast. If you must paddle, the Saturday the 29th is your one and only shot, and it’s a good one for a point break, but don’t expect a long session.
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.
