The Lowdown
Rusty here again, with the same outlook in feet and inches.
It's looking pretty flat and quiet for a long stretch. There's a solid gap of days with no real surf on offer. The first bit of action doesn't show up until Thursday the 18th, so you're looking at a dry spell from now until then. Even then, the waves are tiny and the energy is weak.
The standout window, if you can even call it that, is the morning of Thursday the 18th at Voltri. It's a point break, and we'll see a bit of a lift with a 5ft swell coming from the SW. The period is a middling 7 seconds, so it's not going to have that groundswell grunt. The combined energy is moderate at 277, but the wind is light and cross-shore, so it'll be a bit lumpy. This one is really just for the keen beginners or anyone desperate for a splash. It's inconsistent here and it can get crowded sometimes, so keep that in mind.
After that, it pretty much dries up again. We see some clean, offshore conditions on the weekend of the 20th and 21st, but there's no swell to speak of. The morning of the 24th has a little 2ft SW bump with a clean offshore wind, but again, it's a dribbler. The water temp is about average for this time of year.
The next faint glimmer is Monday the 28th morning. We get 3ft from the SSE with a 6-second period and glassy conditions. The energy is weak at 40. It's surfable but very ordinary. For the rest of the outlook, it's small, weak, and mostly not worth the paddle out.
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.
