Table - best surf conditions forecast for Voltri over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here, let's talk about what's happening with the surf.
Honestly, for the next couple of weeks, it's a slow grind for the most part. We're starting on Wednesday the 8th with nothing, and that flat spell hangs around for a good while. There's a whole lot of small, weak, and messy conditions to get through. The first real glimmer of something half-decent doesn't show up until Saturday the 18th, and even then, it's just barely surfable. So yeah, a big gap of nearly ten days with nothing worth paddling out for.
The standout window is that short run on Tuesday the 21st afternoon through Wednesday the 22nd. It's the only time things start to make sense, but even then, it comes with a catch. On the 21st, the afternoon sees a jump in swell to 6ft from the SSW (moderate wave energy of 363), but it's cross-onshore, so it'll be bumpy. The real gem is Wednesday the 22nd. The morning brings a clean 5ft swell from the SSW with an offshore wind, giving us 251 combined energy. The afternoon is glassy with a still 4ft from the SW. This is the only time in the whole outlook where the wind and the swell actually line up for proper clean waves at Voltri. The swell is a groundswell with an 8-second period, so it'll have a bit more push and shape than the tiny wind slop we've been looking at. It's a point break, so it should handle that swell okay.
For the rest of the second week, mostly forgettable. The 23rd Thursday morning has a clean 4ft from the SSW with offshore wind, but the energy drops to 165, making it more "ordinary" than exciting.
So, if you're itching to get wet, circle Wednesday the 22nd of July on your calendar. That's the best the whole 16 days has to offer. The rest of the time, you're better off with a cold beer 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.
