The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee and get comfortable. This is a tough one, so I'll be straight with you.
Alright, let's look at what we've got for this region. To be brutally honest, the next two and a bit weeks are looking like a write-off. We've got a small blip of energy right at the very start and then a massive, painful gap with flat spells and useless onshore chop. If you've got a kite, this might be your time to shine, because for a paddle surfer, it's a desert.
The only spot we're even talking about is Voltri. It's a point break, which is usually a good sign, and it likes a SSW swell. But consistency is an issue here, and this forecast proves it.
Right now, this Monday morning the 27th of July, there's a tiny 1ft SW swell with a weak energy reading of (33), but look at that wind – NNE at 3 mph and glassy. The water is currently sitting at a very unusual 83°, which is a whopping 7° warmer than normal for this time of year. That's the highlight, honestly. The surf itself is poor, but those conditions are so clean, you might be able to have a fun little paddle on a longboard.
That first little spike is gone by Monday afternoon, and we enter a long, painful stretch. From Tuesday the 28th of July all the way through to Sunday the 10th of August, there's practically nothing rideable. The combined energy drops into single digits and then just flatlines at zero for days on end. You'll see the odd reading of 0.3ft or 0.7ft, but with no power behind it and mostly onshore or cross-onshore breezes, it’s just not worth getting wet.
There is a tiny bump on Tuesday, August 11th. The swell tries to show up at 2ft from the SE, with a combined energy of (26). But look at the period – a short 5 seconds. It's weak, wind-affected chop. By the afternoon the wind picks up to 9 mph onshore, making it choppy and messy. Not the comeback we were hoping for.
So, the honest truth? There's nothing here to get excited about for surfers. The one moment of glory was this morning with the glass and the warm water. After that, you're waiting 15 days for a poor-quality, short-period bump that's only good for the most desperate.
Stay patient.
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.
