The Lowdown
Hey everyone, Rusty here with your local scoop. Gotta be honest, it’s a lean run ahead for Voltri. This point break is looking at a whole lot of nothing for a while. Water temp is a balmy 28°, way warmer than average, so it’ll feel like a bath even if there’s no surf.
The first two weeks are basically a bust. From Wednesday the 5th right through to Friday the 14th, it’s flat or tiny dribbles. Swell heights are mostly under 0.3m, with no energy to speak of – combined energy numbers are in the low single digits. You’ll get glassy mornings and clean offshore breezes, but nothing to ride.
We finally get a pulse on the morning of Sunday, August 16th. Swell comes up to 1.0m from the South, with a 6-second period. The combined energy hits 69, which is still weak, but it’s the best we’ve got. A light offshore from the NNW keeps it clean, but for a point break, that short-period southern swell won’t wrap in with much juice. It’s a marginal day for a beginner to get wet.
Then it’s right back to the flatness. The rest of the run through Thursday the 20th is tiny, weak scraps. The morning of the 19th has a moderate offshore breeze, but with only 0.3m, there’s nothing to surf.
No true standouts here. The only half-chance is that Sunday the 16th, and that’s being generous. For this area, a dry spell like this is pretty normal when there’s no real groundswell. Forecasts can change, but for now, you’re better off waiting.
Stay patient, 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.
