The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's on the cards for our little corner of the coast.
Straight up, this is a grim run of forecasts for Voltri. We're staring down a long, flat spell with barely a ripple on offer. The first solid sign of anything surfable doesn't pop up until Wednesday the 9th of September, and even then, it's pretty sad. The good news? There's absolutely no rush to get your wettie on.
The first week is a write-off. From now through to the following Monday the 14th of September, we've got nothing but tiny, weak pulses of swell. The forecast kicks off with a completely flat Monday on the 7th, despite clear skies and a light offshore breeze. The water is a very unusual 82°, far warmer than we'd expect for this time of year, but it doesn't help the waves.
Wednesday the 9th sees a measly 2ft SW swell with a short period of 4 seconds, so the combined energy of all swells hitting the coast is a pathetic 10. Forget it. It's messy and onshore. The pattern continues with tiny, short-period bumps from the south and southwest through the rest of the week. Thursday morning the 10th might look clean with a light offshore NNW wind, but we're talking about a 0.3ft wave – you’d need a magnifying glass to see it. The energy readings are all in the single digits.
There's a slight, and I mean *slight*, glimmer for Tuesday the 22nd of September. We finally see a bit of movement with a 3ft SSW swell, still a short 5-second period, but the combined energy jumps to 43. Still not worth calling a standout. The morning might have glassy conditions with a light easterly breeze, but it's weak and inconsistent.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day forecast, there is nothing that even qualifies as proper surf. For a point break that needs a decent SSW swell to work, this is a total bust. A few days with offshore winds and no swell is more common for this region than you'd like, but a blank run this long still stings. If you're desperate for a paddle, keep an eye on that Tuesday the 22nd, but don't hold your breath. The setup is more interesting for a SUP than a surfboard right now.
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.
