The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cooking for La Zenia over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a bit of a flat spell, but we’ve got a few moments that might just get you wet.
The first real chance to get out comes on Saturday morning, July 25th. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell shuffling in from the south, but the real story is the light offshore wind from the NW. That’s going to keep the surface clean. Don’t expect much push, though; the swell period is a short 6 seconds, so it’s weak and won’t have much grunt. The combined energy is a low 26, so it’s more about just being out there than scoring. Water temp is a toasty 83°, and that’s a whopping 6° warmer than average for this time of year – that’s seriously unusual, so you can leave the thick suit at home.
Sunday the 26th is a write-off. The wind swings onshore from the E at 16 mph by the afternoon, chewing up that 4ft swell. It’s a mess. Monday the 27th morning is glassy calm, but the swell is a pathetic 1.0ft with barely any energy (6). Not worth the paddle.
The rest of the week into early August is a real struggle. We’re looking at day after day of small, weak swell – mostly under 3ft – with onshore or cross-onshore winds. The water stays warm, but the surf is just not there. The combined energy barely cracks 40 on the best days. It’s a tough stretch.
Then, right at the tail end of the forecast, we get a bit of a pulse. On Friday morning, August 7th, we see a 3ft swell from the east, with a period of 5 seconds. The energy bumps up to 76, which is the highest we’ve seen. The wind is a light cross-shore from the NE, which will keep it fairly clean. It’s still not a pumping day, but it’s the best we’ve got in this run. The following Saturday morning, August 8th, drops back down to 2ft.
The Standout:
If you have to pick one session, make it Friday morning, August 7th. That 3ft east swell with the light cross-shore wind is about as good as it gets in this window. It’s not big, but it’s the most energy we see, and the conditions will be the most user-friendly. Don’t expect perfection, but it’s a chance to get a few fun ones at La Zenia. Crowds are possible here, so be ready for a few others with the same idea.
So, a long, quiet run with one little blip of hope. The water is bathtub warm, so at least you’ll be comfortable while you’re waiting.
Rusty.

Information about the La Zenia Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Zenia provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Zenia can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Zenia 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 Zenia) 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 Zenia 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.
