The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, switching to feet and Fahrenheit.
First up, the honest truth: the next week and a half is a rough stretch for Voltri. We’re looking at a long run of tiny, weak waves or total flatness from the start until around Friday, July 18th. Swell is basically missing, with combined energy readings barely hitting 9 (a measly 9) and most days sitting at 0 to 5. There’s no real surf. The water is sitting at 81°, which is a whopping 7° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual, and it’ll feel like a warm bath.
The first real sign of life shows up on Sunday morning, July 19th. We get a tiny bump of 2ft from the SW, period 6 seconds, with a combined energy of 44 – still weak, but at least it’s something. The wind is offshore from the NNW at 9 mph, so it’s clean. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. This is a beginner-friendly size, but the inconsistency of this break means you’ll be waiting around.
The one standout in this whole 16-day window is Saturday morning, July 25th. Voltri picks up a 4ft swell from the SE, period 6 seconds, and combined energy jumps to 115 (moderate). The wind is glassy from the NE at 3 mph – that’s a major positive for clean conditions. The swell direction is SE, not the optimum SSW, but the glassy conditions and the moderate energy make this the best session on offer. It’s still not huge, so it’s fine for all levels, but crowds are possible here.
Sunday morning, July 26th, offers another chance with 3ft from the SSW, period 5 seconds, energy 66, and offshore wind from the N at 3 mph. It’s clean but small. Monday and Tuesday mornings, July 27th and 28th, also have offshore wind and 3ft to 3ft SSW/SW swell, with energy in the 78-124 range, but neither is a standout compared to the 25th.
Overall: if you’re itching for a paddle, aim for the 25th (Saturday) morning. The rest of the window is mostly flat or very weak. For Voltri, a blank run like this is pretty normal for the area.

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.
