The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cooking for us in the immediate area. I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a bit is looking flat as a pancake. We’re in for a long dry spell, so don’t bother rushing to grab your board just yet.
We're looking at Voltri, a point break that's usually a beginner-friendly spot, but it's inconsistent and this stretch is a prime example of why. For the entire first week, from Saturday the 8th through to Saturday the 15th, the swell energy is just pathetic – we're talking values of 3, 1, and even 0 for the combined energy of all swells directed here. It’s almost entirely flat with tiny, short-period windswells that just aren't worth the paddle. A few mornings have clean, offshore winds, but with no swell to push around, it’s just a glassy lake.
There is a light at the end of the tunnel, but you’ll need some patience. The best, and really the only, standout window arrives on Monday the 17th of August. The morning sees a pulse of 0.4m (1ft) SSW swell with a period of 5 seconds, pushed by a gentle offshore NNW breeze, making for clean conditions. The afternoon is even better – glassy conditions and a slightly bigger 0.5m (2ft) S swell. The energy creeps up to a very modest 14, but it’s the cleanest surf we’ll see in this whole outlook. It’s small, but for a beginner-friendly point, it might just be rideable. After that, it’s back to tiny, weak waves and glassy conditions through the rest of the week.
So, to sum it up: you’re looking at a solid week of flat water, followed by a single, small, clean day on the 17th. Don't get your hopes up for anything else.

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.
