The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Voltri.
To be straight with you, this is a tough run. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty flat and mostly unsurfable. We’ve got a big gap of nothing from now until the end of July, with just tiny, weak pulses that aren’t worth paddling out for. The first real glimmer of anything happens on Saturday the 1st of August, and even then, it’s small and ordinary.
The only session that even raises an eyebrow is Tuesday morning the 4th of August. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the SW, with a period of 7 seconds – so it’s a weak, short-period windswell, but at least it’s something. The combined energy is still weak at 46, and honestly, the guidance calls it “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” The wind is glassy, which is a big positive – it’ll be clean. But with the swell that small, it’s really only for a longboard or a funboard, and it’s a beginner-friendly spot anyway. Don’t expect much.
The water temperature is a massive standout – it’s 83°, which is 8° warmer than normal for this time of year. That’s very unusual, so you won’t need a wetsuit, that’s for sure.
Otherwise, the rest of the period is a flat, windless, or onshore mess. The wave energy is virtually zero for days on end. There’s just nothing to get excited about.
Stay patient, check the charts again in a few days. Sometimes a blank run like this breaks, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
