The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a quiet stretch ahead. We're looking at a long, flat spell that runs from now, Wednesday the 16th, all the way through to the end of the week. There’s nothing rideable until we get a tiny pulse of swell on Friday the 18th, and even then, it’s not much to write home about.
The standout, if you can call it that, is Voltri on Friday morning the 18th. We’ve got a little 3ft SSW swell rolling in, bumpy with a short 6-second period. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the NE, so it should be clean enough to get on it. The combined energy is weak at 109, so it’s not going to be pumping, but for a beginner-friendly point, it's the best we’ve got. Water temps are about average for this time of year, nothing unusual.
After Friday, it drops right back off. We’re staring down another long gap of tiny, knee-high slop and flat days through to the end of September. There are a few mornings with clean, glassy conditions and light offshore breezes, but the swell is just not there. The only other flicker of life near the very end of the run is on Wednesday the 30th of September morning, with another 2ft SSW swell and clean offshore wind, but again, it's weak.
No real fire in this one. Keep the board waxed and wait for a proper system.

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.
