The Lowdown
Grab your board, but don’t get your hopes up too high just yet. The next 16 days are looking pretty flat for Voltri, with only a few tiny, half-hearted pulses coming through. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing, then a whisper of something in the second week, but it’s barely worth the paddle.
Right now, on Monday the 27th of July, the water is much warmer than normal at 82°, a solid 6° above average for this time of year.
Monday the 27th kicks off with nothing but a tiny, weak 1ft SW swell, but the wind is glassy from the NE in the morning at just 3 mph – at least it’s pretty. That combined swell energy is only 33, so it’s weak and lifeless. It’s poor surf and a score of zero, so don’t bother.
Tuesday the 28th and Wednesday the 29th are essentially flat, with waves smaller than 0.7ft and combined energy dropping to single digits. Thursday the 30th through to the following week remains dead, with zeros across the board. That’s a pretty grim gap of about a week with absolutely no surf on offer.
A tiny bump appears on Monday the 3rd of August morning. We get a clean 3ft SSW groundswell with a period of 6 seconds. The wind is offshore from the N at 6 mph. The combined energy is still weak at 37, but at least the conditions are clean. It’s still a poor surf call though.
The best of a bad lot shows up on Sunday the 9th of August morning. A 3ft SW swell paired with a light ENE cross-offshore wind at 3 mph – that’s clean. The period is 7 seconds, and the combined energy is 76. It’s still weak. The conditions are described as “surfable but very ordinary,” which is about the best we’re going to get.
Then Monday the 10th of August morning offers something similar: a 3ft SW swell with a stronger offshore NNW wind at 9 mph, giving it a clean face. The combined energy is 73, and the period is 7 seconds. Again, just ordinary, surfable waves.
In the end, nothing here stands out as a good session. For a point break like Voltri that’s already inconsistent, a blank run like this isn’t too unusual. If you’re desperate, the mornings of Sunday the 9th and Monday the 10th of August are your only real shots, and even then, they’re not worth a special trip.

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.
