The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – we’re looking at a pretty flat 16 days for Voltri. It’s a point break that’s exposed to SSW swell and works best with a north offshore, but the honest truth is there’s nothing worth paddling out for. The whole run is basically a write-off.
The water is sitting at around 84°, which is 7° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s very unusual, feels like bathwater. Don’t expect any real push from the ocean.
The first hint of anything shows up on the morning of Thursday August 6th, but it’s onshore wind and zero energy (0). No surf. Friday August 7th morning has a tiny 1ft SW swell with a 7-second period, clean with a light north offshore, but the combined energy is only 7 – that’s weak. It’s barely a ripple. Afternoon gets a little more energy (18) but wind swings south onshore, so it’s messy.
Saturday August 8th morning has a clean 0.7ft SSW swell with a 4-second period – that’s super short period, no power, energy only 3. It’s glassy Saturday afternoon but the swell drops to 0.3ft. Sunday August 9th is similar: clean mornings with tiny, weak scraps. Monday August 10th through to Thursday August 14th are dead – zeros across the board for swell and energy.
The next faint pulse comes Sunday August 16th morning: glassy, 1ft from SSW, 5-second period, energy of 5. It’s clean and calm but tiny. Then Wednesday August 19th morning shows a clean 1ft SSW swell with 5-second period, energy of 8. Afternoon on the 19th goes glassy with a 1ft SW swell, 5-second period, energy of 11 – that’s the best we see, but calling it a standout feels generous.
There are no standouts here. This is a blank run, and for Voltri that’s not unusual – it’s an inconsistent break. If you’re desperate for a paddle, the glassy windows on the 19th afternoon or the 16th morning are your only real options. The setup is too weak for kite surfing, too. Keep an eye on forecasts, but for now, leave the board at home.
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.
