The Lowdown
Hey everyone, Rusty here. I’ve been through the numbers, and I have to level with you – it’s a bleak outlook for Voltri. We're looking at a stretch of flat water that will test your patience.
We kick off on Wednesday the 29th of July, but don't get your hopes up. The swell is a tiny 0.7ft from the SSE with a combined energy of just (6) – that’s barely a bump. The wind is a light offshore from the north at 6 mph on Wednesday morning, but the waves just aren't there to surf. The water is 81.5°, which is about 5.2° warmer than the typical average for this time of year, so the bath water is warm at least.
Through the end of July and into August, the story doesn't change. Friday the 31st of July has a glassy morning with an east-northeast breeze at 3 mph, but the swell is a pathetic 0.7ft with a period of only 4 seconds and next to no energy. Following that, we hit a dead zone for several days. From Monday the 3rd of August, there are days with zero swell, just clean, flat conditions. A tiny whisper of a swell appears on the 6th of August with a 1.3ft SSW swell and a north offshore wind, but the combined energy is only (12). It's not surfable.
The entire 16-day window is the same song: tiny, short-period swells and offshore winds, but nothing with enough size or power to break. The most promising window is around Saturday the 8th of August when the morning has a clean offshore wind, but again, the swell is less than 0.7ft or flat. On the 10th of August, we get a 1.3ft south swell, but it's hit with a cross-onshore wind from the southeast at 9 mph, making it choppy and unappealing.
There are no standouts here. This is a proper flat spell, and for this stretch of coast, it happens. The boards will stay dry for a while.

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.
