Table - best surf conditions forecast for Voltri over the next 16 days.
Alright, well, grab a seat because the outlook for this stretch is a tough one. We're looking at the Genoa region, focused on Voltri, and the 16-day window is pretty bleak for us. There's a big, empty gap at the start here.
The water is sitting at a super warm 79°F, which is a full 6°F warmer than usual for this time of year—that’s very unusual. It’s like bath water, but that’s where the good news ends.
For Thursday the 9th, straight out of the gate, we’ve got a tiny 0.7ft SSW swell with a short, weak 4-second period. The combined energy is basically nothing at (4). We see some glassy conditions Thursday afternoon, but with no size to work with, it’s a flat spell. That theme runs all through the first week. We get glassy mornings and light offshore breezes here and there—like Saturday the 11th morning with 1ft SE swell and dead calm winds—but the wave energy is just pathetic (4). It’s not worth paddling out.
This pattern of tiny surf and no energy carries right through until Wednesday the 22nd. That’s over a week of near-nothing. There’s a slight bump on the 22nd: a 2ft S swell with a 6-second period. The energy finally picks up to (32) in the morning and (56) in the afternoon. Still, the wave comment is "poor surf conditions." It’s still small, but that’s the best we get. With a north-northwest offshore breeze in the morning, it would be surfable for a beginner on a foamy.
After that, it fades back into nothing. The 23rd shows a blip of 0.7ft SSW, then it’s a total flat spell right through to the 24th.
Honestly, there’s no standout session here. There's nothing to get excited about. For the entire 16 days, the swell is too small and weak to offer any sort of quality wave. The only window that might get you wet is Wednesday the 22nd morning, with that 2ft S swell and a clean offshore wind, but even then, you’re struggling for a ride. The setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer on most days.
It’s a rough run. Forecasts can always change, but for now, this is a solid blank spell 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.
