The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Voltri, the only game in town for this stretch.

Voltri is a point break that takes a bit of coaxing to get going. It's inconsistent, so you need a decent push of swell from the SSW to get it working. The water temp is sitting at 83°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – you’re looking at water that’s over 5° warmer than the long-term average, so wetsuits are off the cards.

The first week and a half is a write-off. From Monday 3rd August right through to Sunday 16th August, the swell is tiny, mostly under 1ft, with periods so short they’re barely worth paddling for. The combined energy is almost always in the single digits (0 to 16), so it's flat or practically flat. There’s a solid 13-day gap here with no real surf to speak of. You’ll get some glassy mornings with clean conditions, but there’s simply no wave energy to work with.

The standout window arrives on Monday 17th August. The morning brings a proper pulse: 4ft of swell from the southwest, with a solid 9-second period. The combined energy jumps to 211 (moderate wave energy), which is the strongest we will see. The wind is light offshore from the north, so it should be clean. This is a beginner-friendly swell size, so it’s a good chance for the less experienced crew to get out. The afternoon holds up a bit with 3ft swell and 10-second period, and the wind swings light and glassy from the south, but the energy drops to 129. This is the best on offer, but it’s a one-day window and you’ll want to be on it Monday morning. Crowds are possible at this spot.

The rest of the outlook, Tuesday 18th August onwards, drops back to tiny, poor surf. It’s a weak finish to the 16-day window.

Overall, it’s been a long dry spell, but that Monday 17th August morning is the one to circle. Keep an eye on the forecasts, but right now, that’s your best shot.

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.
