The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let's break down the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, we’re looking at a flat spell that just won’t quit. There’s a big old gap of nothing at the start, and the whole 16-day outlook is a write-off. The first real bump, if you can call it that, is on Tuesday, August 4th in the morning. It’s a tiny 0.3m swell from the SE with a combined energy of only (2). Not enough to surf.
The only spot to even think about is Voltri. It’s an exposed point break, but it’s inconsistent, so a long dry spell like this isn't a huge shock. The best of a bad bunch is the morning of Saturday, August 8th. There’s a 0.4m swell from the SW with a period of 7 seconds, pushing the energy to (22). It’s still weak, but the wind is glassy from the ENE, so it’ll be clean. It’s a beginner wave, and the swell is tiny, so it’s only for the absolute keenest. You might see a few others out there, but probably not.
The rest of the second week is a desert. We get some nice offshore and glassy mornings, like on Monday the 11th and Wednesday the 13th of August, but there is zero swell to go with them. Water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year.
Honestly, the whole setup is so weak it might look better for a kite than a surfboard, but there's not enough wind for that either. Forecasts can change, but right now, it's a hard pass.
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.
