Alright, Surf Crew, Rusty here, checkin' in with the outlook for La Arena. I’m gonna tell you straight: it’s been a tough run lately, but there’s a glimmer of hope way down the track.
Look, we’re in a pretty flat spell for a good stretch. The water's sitting at a slightly warmer-than-average 67°, which is about one degree off the norm for this time of year. But that’s about the only thing that’s working in our favor for a while.
We kick off the forecast window on Friday, July 10th, but honestly, with a weak 2ft swell from the WNW at 9 seconds and a light cross-on breeze, the conditions are just plain poor. That's the story for the next two weeks, really. We’ve got tiny waves, short periods, and mostly onshore or cross-shore winds messing things up. Saturday the 11th morning offers a tiny, cleaner window with a 2ft NW swell and cross-off breeze, but it's very ordinary. There are a few glassy mornings, like the 13th, 14th, and even the 16th, but the swell is so tiny – 1ft to 2ft – it's hardly worth paddling for.
We go through a big stretch of barely any energy, with combined readings dropping as low as 11 to 20. It’s a proper desert out there. There is a brief pulse of 4ft on the 21st and 22nd, but the period is short and the wind is off, so while it’s clean, the wave quality is still rated as poor.
Then, things finally look like they might turn around. The standout is the morning of Friday, July 24th. This is our one bright spot. The guidance tells me La Arena is a consistent beginner-friendly spot, but this morning it’s going to offer something special for a short time. We’ve got a 5ft swell from the NNW with a period of 11 seconds, and it’s glassy calm – a dead flat ocean. That’s a big deal for clean surf. The combined energy is a strong 658, so there’ll be some proper push behind it. For a spot that’s fairly exposed to the NW, this is a solid window. It might be a bit much for total beginners at that size, but for anyone with a bit of experience, this is the session to aim for. Get your board waxed.
After that little burst, it settles back down into a smaller, wind-affected pattern, but for that one Friday morning, it's worth the wait. I’ll be there.
Rusty.

Information about the La Arena Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Arena provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Arena can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Arena 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 (La Arena) 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 La Arena 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.
La Arena is 14 km (9 miles) from Aviles. If you plan a holiday in Asturias, look for hotels and other accommodation in Aviles. Aviles has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
