The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Voltri in feet and miles.
The next 16 days are looking pretty flat overall. There’s a very short window of surfable waves, but it’s not high quality and it’s gone in a flash.
Saturday morning, 22nd August – The swell is about 4ft from the SSW, period 8 seconds, with a north wind offshore at 10 km/h. The water temperature is a balmy 28°, which is 4° warmer than normal – that’s very unusual. Combined swell energy is weak (161). It’s a point break, good for beginners, but it’s inconsistent and can get crowded. The waves are rideable, but just ordinary. The swell direction lines up with the best direction for the spot.
Saturday afternoon – The swell drops to 3ft, period 7 seconds, with a cross-offshore wind from the east-northeast. Energy is weak (70). Still rideable, but nothing special.
From Sunday the 23rd through to Saturday the 6th of September, it’s mostly flat or blown out. Friday the 28th of August afternoon sees the swell bump to 5ft from the SSW, but with a short 6-second period and a strong onshore south wind at 20 km/h. The energy is moderate (211), but it’s a messy, stormy mess.
Saturday the 29th of August morning – 4ft from the SSW, period 8 seconds, with a cross-offshore north-northwest wind. Energy is moderate (178). Surfable, but very ordinary. The afternoon gets bigger (5ft, period 8 seconds, energy 450) but onshore south wind ruins it.
The rest of the forecast is tiny waves or flat, with lots of glassy days but no swell to push them.
If you’re a beginner, the Saturday morning on the 22nd is your only real option. Otherwise, it’s a waiting game. This area goes quiet like this sometimes, so it’s not a surprise.
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.
