The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's cut through the chatter and look at what's on the cards for this stretch.
First thing: the water is sitting at 82° – that's a massive 8° warmer than usual for this time of year. It's like bathwater out there, totally abnormal.
Now, the surf. Honestly, the first two weeks of this forecast are a total dud. From Tuesday the 1st all the way through to Monday the 14th of September, there's nothing worth paddling out for. Days of flat, near-flat, or tiny windswell with wave heights barely hitting 1ft, short periods, and combined energy readings that are basically zero. The wind is often light, but there's no push in the water. It's a long, flat desert.
We finally get a blip on Tuesday the 15th of September. Voltri (point) shows a little life. The morning brings a 2ft swell from the SW with a 9-second period, pushing the combined energy to 73. It's not big, but it's the most we've seen in two weeks. The wind is offshore from the NNW at 12 mph, so it'll be clean. This is a beginner-friendly spot, and at this size, it's perfect for a log or a foamy. The afternoon drops to about 2ft with less energy, but it stays clean. This is the only real window in the whole 16-day outlook.
Wednesday the 16th fades out again with just 2ft in the morning and 0.7ft in the afternoon.
The standout is clear: Tuesday the 15th at Voltri. It's small, it's clean, and it's the only thing breaking the flat spell. Don't get your hopes up for anything big, but if you need a paddle, that's your window.
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.
