The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window for the region is a tough one. There's no immediate surf to speak of, and we're looking at a real dry spell before anything worth paddling out for shows up.

Let's start with the bad news. From now through the end of July, it's a complete desert. Day after day, the swell is flat or close to it, with heights barely tickling 1ft and combined wave energy in the single digits (7). The water's sitting at a very unusual 84°F, which is a whopping 9°F warmer than normal for the time of year – feels more like a bath than the ocean. There are a few clean, glassy mornings, but without any swell to push, it's just a pretty lake.

We do finally see a faint pulse around Sunday, July 26th, with a bit more energy (42-45), but the wind swings cross-on and it's still only 2ft to 2ft. Not worth the wetsuit hassle.

The first real glimmer of hope is on Monday, July 27th morning at Voltri. We get a small 2ft SSW swell with a period of 7 seconds, and the wind is a clean offshore from the NNW. It's surfable but very ordinary – the combined energy is still weak (56). Don't get your hopes up for anything special, but if you're desperate, it's the first wave in a long time.

After that, it's back to the flat spell for the rest of July and the first day of August.

The one standout in this whole outlook lands on Sunday, August 2nd. The morning session at Voltri (Italy) shows a jump to 5ft from the SE with a 6-second period. The combined swell energy hits moderate levels (147), which is about as good as it gets in this forecast. The wind is glassy, making for clean conditions. It's a real tease, but for beginners, 5ft might be pushing the limit. The period is short, so the waves won't have much grunt, but it's the only thing close to a proper surf day. The afternoon gets a bit messy with a light cross-onshore wind.

The following Monday, August 3rd morning, offers a final little clean-up set with 3ft SW swell and light offshore wind, but the energy drops back to weak (88).

Bottom line: a long, flat stretch broken by one modestly promising morning on the 2nd of August. If you've got a kite, the afternoons with some breeze and small swell might be more interesting than a paddle board. Otherwise, hold tight and hope the next forecast looks kinder.

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.
