The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Voltri. To be straight with you, the next 16 days look pretty flat. There’s a tiny window of surfable waves this weekend, but after that, we’re looking at a long, quiet stretch.

We start off with a bit of a pulse on Friday, August 21st, but the conditions are messy. Friday morning has a small 4ft SSW swell with a short 6-second period, giving us weak energy (97), but it’s coming with moderate rain and a cross-shore wind. Not worth suiting up. Friday afternoon gets a bit bigger at 6ft from the same direction, but the wind whips up onshore and the energy is moderate (198). The surf is poor.

The highlight, such as it is, comes on Saturday, August 22nd. The morning brings a cleaner picture with a 4ft SSW swell (7-second period) and a light offshore wind from the N. The energy is moderate (134), and the surf is described as surfable but ordinary. It’s a beginner-friendly size, and the offshore wind will keep it tidy. Saturday afternoon drops to 3ft with a clean cross-off breeze. It’s not going to blow your mind, but it’s the best we’ve got. Sunday morning the swell drops to 1ft – too small to bother with.

From Sunday afternoon onward, we hit a major dry spell. From August 24th all the way through to September 5th, the swell is essentially non-existent. You’ll see a few tiny pulses of 0.7ft or 1ft here and there, but the energy is in the single digits, and the wave comment is consistently “poor surf conditions.” It’s a long, quiet period for the area.

The spot itself is a point break, exposed to the SSW. It’s rated for beginners, but it’s inconsistent and can get crowded at times. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.

If you’re desperate, Saturday morning the 22nd is your only real shot – small, clean, offshore. Everything else is a waiting game. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s mostly a blank page.

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.
