The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cookin’ for the Voltri stretch.
Honestly, I gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. The next 16 days look like a flat spell with barely a pulse. The tiny windows of rideable swell are so small and weak that it’s hard to get excited. The water temperature is a blazing 84°F, which is a whopping 8°F warmer than usual for this time of year – way, way above normal, like bathwater. You’d be floating more than surfing.
The first real chance to paddle out with a wave under your feet comes Monday morning, July 27. Voltri is a point break, exposed to a little SSW swell. We’re looking at 3ft from the south, with a short period of 6 seconds and weak combined energy (81). The morning wind is offshore from the north, so it’ll be clean. It’s not pumping, but it’s surfable. The afternoon glass-off on Monday is even smaller at 2ft. That’s about the best on offer, which is a pretty low bar.
After that, we fall back into a long stretch of nothing. Tuesday the 28th through to the end of the forecast, the swell dips to 0.7ft up to 2ft, with periods of 2 to 8 seconds and combined energy rarely cracking 14. The wind is mostly offshore or glassy, but with that tiny swell, it’s just not worth the paddle. It’s a dead run for two solid weeks.
If you’re a beginner, those tiny 3ft to 2ft clean waves on Monday might be a fun little splash. But for anyone else, this is a time to wax the longboard and wait. The good news is Voltri is an inconsistent spot, so a blank run like this isn’t a total shocker. Forecasts can change, but for now, keep the board 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.
