The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you on this one for the stretch ahead. We’re looking at what you might call a flat spell. The whole 16-day window is pretty much a write-off for any proper surf. It’s not just small; it’s a proper gap with next to no energy coming through.

We’ll kick off on the morning of Friday the 4th of September. Water’s sitting at a very unusual 82°, which is way warmer than we’d expect for this time of year. That alone is a real oddity. But that’s where the good news ends.

For the *entire* first week, from Friday the 4th right through to Friday the 11th, it’s a total bust. The wave energy is so low it’s barely registering: a zero (0) in the combined energy department for most of that time. You’ll see tiny bumps, like 0.7 ft at best on Sunday morning the 6th, but it’s got a period of just 4 seconds which is junk. Even when the wind is light offshore from the NNW, like Wednesday morning the 9th with a 1 ft SSW swell, the energy is only reading a weak ten (10). Not worth getting wet for.

The second week doesn’t get much better, I’m afraid. We’re talking about the same story—tiny, weak swells. Tuesday the 15th of September afternoon offers a little pulse: 2 ft from the south with a period of 6 seconds, giving us a combined energy of 35. It’s the most energy we see in the whole outlook, but that’s still very low. The wind is offshore from the NNW at 12 mph, so it would be clean, but you’re looking at knee-high dribble on a point break that only breaks *inconsistently* at the best of times. It’s not a recommendation, just the least bad option.

Honestly, for any proper surfer, this is a kite-surfing window if the wind picks up, but for paddling, it’s a long, dry stretch. Forecasts can always change, but this one’s a tough one to watch.

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.
