The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, it’s a pretty bleak run for Voltri. There’s nothing in the immediate forecast that’s worth paddling out for. The first week is basically a write-off. We’re looking at a long stretch of flat days with no real swell to speak of. The wind is often offshore or glassy, which is a shame, because the conditions are good, but there’s just no water moving.
The first sign of anything at all shows up on the afternoon of Sunday the 19th of July. A tiny 2ft S swell with a period of just 5 seconds, and combined wave energy is weak at 16. It’s glassy, clean conditions, but the swell is too small and weak to do anything with. The water temperature is 83°, which is 8° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s way above normal, so you’ll be in for a warm one if you’re just sitting on the beach.
Monday the 20th offers a similar story: 2ft SSW swell, still short period, with a light offshore wind in the morning. It’s clean, but it’s barely a ripple. The energy is still very low.
The whole stretch from Tuesday the 21st through to the end of the month is basically flat. We get a few days where the wind is offshore or glassy, but the swell height is either zero or a pathetic 0.3ft with periods around 4 to 5 seconds. The combined energy is down to 1 or 2 – that’s nothing. It’s not surfable.
The pattern continues right into the first few days of August. We see some glassy mornings on the 1st and 2nd, and a clean offshore wind on the 3rd of August, but again, no swell. The whole 16-day window is a flat spell.
If you’re looking for the best of a bad bunch, the only window that even comes close to being a “standout” is the Sunday afternoon of the 19th of July. The conditions are glassy, the water is warm, but the swell is just too small. It’s really a day for a swim or a paddleboard, not a surfboard.
This kind of blank run is more normal for the area, so don’t lose hope. Forecasts can change, and it tends not to stay this poor for long. But for now, I’d be leaving the boards at home.

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.
