The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – this one’s a tough pill to swallow. We’re looking at a real dry spell for Voltri (Italy). The whole 16-day window is basically a write-off for any decent surf. There’s a few scraps of tiny swell here and there, but the waves are just too small and weak to bother with. The first few days kick off with a tiny 2ft swell from the SSE on Sunday afternoon, but the wind is onshore and there’s a risk of thunderstorms, so that’s a solid no-go. The combined wave energy is a paltry 22, which is nothing.
From Monday the 27th through to the end of the run, we’re looking at wave heights that barely ever crack 2ft, with periods that are short and weak. The combined energy figures are all in the single digits or low double digits – that’s just not enough to push a surfboard. The water is a warm 83°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, over three degrees above average, so you can at least swim comfortably.
The only slight glimmer is on Friday the 7th of August, where we see a 2ft SW swell with a 7-second period, and the combined energy hits 38. But even then, the wind is cross-onshore and it’s just not enough to get excited about. For the rest of the time, we’re looking at flat spells stretching for days, with scores of zero across the board. It’s one of those blank runs that’s more normal for the area when the swell just doesn’t line up. Keep an eye on the forecasts, but for now, I’d say the board stays in the car.
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.
