    Italy (Genoa/la spezia) June/July?

    Bringing a beater board to NW Italy, looks like there's a pulse of 1m windswell every few days. Anyone been this time of year? Not really intending it to be a surf trip, but will have a car and could be nice to get a session or two in while I'm there... Thanks for any feedback
