The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for the Voltri stretch over the next couple weeks.
Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – the next 16 days are lookin' pretty flat. There's a big, long stretch of not much happening. We start with a bit of a hiccup right from Tuesday, September 8th, with absolutely no swell at all and glassy conditions, but it's flat as a pancake. That sets the tone for the whole period. The water temp is sittin' at 82°, which is far warmer than normal for this time of year, so if you're just keen for a paddle, it's lovely, but for waves? Not so much.
From Wednesday, September 9th, we see a tiny bit of life, but it's not worth gettin' outta bed for. On Wednesday morning, there's a weak 2ft swell from the SSW with a super short period of only 4 seconds, and the combined energy is just 22 – that's weak. It's blown out with a south wind anyway. The whole day is a write-off.
Then we hit a proper dry spell. From Thursday, September 10th, right through to Saturday, September 19th, it's almost entirely flat. We get some nice offshore winds from the NNW on the 10th, 11th, and 12th, with a bit of a clean texture, but the swell heights barely tickle 1ft. The combined energy values are in the single digits – honestly, that's not surf, that's a ripple. There's a long gap of about a week and a half where you could be forgiven for thinkin' the ocean broke. It's just one of those runs for the area, unfortunately.
A little flicker shows up around Sunday, September 20th. We see a 0.7ft to 1ft swell from the SSW, with energy climbing to just 9 in the afternoon. It's tiny, and with a south wind pushing onshore in the arvo, it's messy. Not a recommendation, just a heads up.
The very end of the window, on Wednesday, September 23rd, has the best (and I use that term loosely) potential. Morning brings a 1ft swell from the SE with a period of 7 seconds, and energy of 8, under a light offshore from the N. By afternoon, it gets glassy, and the swell bumps to 1ft with the same SE direction, a slightly better period of 7 seconds, and energy of 13. It's still tiny, and Voltri is an inconsistent spot anyway, so this is barely a whisper. For a beginner, the flat conditions are safe, but there's nothing to ride.
Bottom line: there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. The whole forecast is a bust. For a break that's already inconsistent, this blank run is pretty normal. Keep your board in the car, but your expectations on the beach.

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.
