The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Voltri. It’s a point break, but it’s not exactly firing. There's a real lack of consistency here, and what surf does show up is tiny. It’s one of those stretches where you’re checking the forecast hoping for a pulse, and it just stays flat. Still, there’s a glimmer or two if you’re desperate for a paddle.
Right now, it’s flat. We’ve got a few days of nothing happening through the 13th. The wind’s offshore and it’s clean, but there’s no groundswell to work with. You’re just looking at a glassy ocean with no push. It’s a waiting game.
The first real sign of life shows up on the 17th. There’s a little pulse of 1ft from the southwest, with a 6-second period. It’s small and weak, but the morning looks glassy with a light northerly breeze. It’s about as good as it’s going to get for a while – a tiny, clean wave for the longboard. It’s not going to be anything special, but it beats a flat day. The energy is still weak.
The next little bump is on the 21st. The morning is still weak, but the afternoon shows a slight pickup. We get 2ft from the southwest, but the period stretches out to 9 seconds. That’s a touch more energy, and the biggest we’ve seen. The offshore wind is there, so it should be clean. It’s still small, but this is the standout of the whole period – a fun, clean wave on a point if you’re not expecting much. This is a beginner-friendly size, so it’s safe for everyone.
After that, it looks like we fade back into flatness from the 22nd onwards. There’s nothing but tiny leftovers and flat spells. The 23rd has a little ripple, but it’s junk. It seems like the surf is just not going to show up in any meaningful way for the rest of the window. You might get a tiny wave here and there, but nothing worth planning a session around.
Honestly, if you’re desperate, the 17th and 21st are your windows. The 21st is the pick of the two, with slightly more size and period. But overall, this is a period of flatness with a couple of tiny clean ripples. It’s a quiet spell for Voltri.

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.
