The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty here.
Looking at the 16-day outlook for Voltri, it’s a pretty lean stretch of surf. We’ve got a long gap of nothing worthwhile for the first few days, from now right through until the morning of Saturday the 22nd of August. That’s a solid dry spell to start with.
Saturday the 22nd of August is the first real glimmer. Saturday morning at Voltri (Ligurian Sea) we’ll see a 5ft SSW groundswell coming in at 7 seconds. The water is sitting at a very unusual 84°, which is much warmer than average for this time of year. The wind is glassy, ENE at just 3 mph, and the energy is moderate at 323. It’s the best of a quiet bunch, but honestly, it’s only a small window; the afternoon turns to cross-on wind and drops back down.
The next notable pulse hits Tuesday the 25th of August. Tuesday morning shows a solid 10ft SSW swell with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is strong at 1373, but it’s onshore wind from the south at 9 mph, making for messy, bumpy conditions. That’s expert territory size-wise, but the quality is going to be poor.
There’s another small chance on the morning of Tuesday the 1st of September. A 5ft SSW swell at 8 seconds with a clean, gentle offshore wind from the north at 9 mph. The energy is moderate at 213, and it’s promising for a few cleaner waves at this point break, though you’re looking at a crowd sometimes.
Honestly, if you’re seriously chasing something, the Saturday the 22nd morning glass-off is the standout. It’s not big, but with that light wind and moderate energy, it’s your best shot at something clean. Everything else is either too small, too windy, or onshore.
Stay safe out there.

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.
