The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here.
Let’s be real – this is a lean stretch ahead. The surf at Voltri is looking pretty ordinary for the next 16 days. We’re dealing with a handful of small, weak pulses and a lot of flat spells. The first decent bit of surf doesn’t show up until Saturday morning, 26 July, and even that’s nothing to write home about. There’s a big gap of near-zero action before that.
Let’s run through it. Friday, 17 July, through the whole of the following week is mostly flat or tiny. Saturday morning, 19 July, offers a little 2 ft swell from the SSW with a period of 5 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the NNW, so it’ll be clean. But that energy is weak – only 17 (combined energy). It’s really just a dribble. Sunday afternoon, 20 July, is glassy but the swell is only 1 ft. Not worth suiting up for.
The real standout, if you can call it that, is Saturday morning, 26 July. Voltri is a point break, and this is the biggest push we get. A 3 ft SSW swell rolls in with a 6-second period, and the wind is glassy from the NNE. The wave energy clocks in at 86 (combined energy) – moderate, but the best we’ll see. The water temperature is a whopping 82°, which is 8° warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s very unusual, so you’ll be surfing in a bath. The break is exposed to the swell, and the optimum direction is SSW, so this lines up well. It’s inconsistent here, so don’t expect set after set, but when they come, the conditions will be clean and small. Crowds are possible, so keep an eye out.
After that, Monday, 27 July, goes flat again, and the rest of the month into early August is just tiny, weak swells with onshore or cross-onshore winds. Nothing to get excited about. The 31 July Friday morning has a 3 ft SW swell with a 7-second period and offshore NNW wind, giving clean conditions and energy of 80, but it’s still just a small wave.
Overall, if you’re desperate, aim for Saturday morning, 26 July, or Friday morning, 31 July. The rest of the time, you’re better off doing something else. The surf just isn’t there.
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.
