Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the outlook for the next couple of weeks is a tough one. We’ve got a real dry spell on our hands with very little to get excited about.
The only spot on the cards is La Zenia. It’s a reef setup that rarely breaks, and unfortunately, this looks like one of those quiet periods. For the first week and a half, from July 3rd right through to the morning of July 12th, the swell is just too small and weak to do anything with. You’ll see a tiny bump of energy, but the wave heights stay well below 3 feet and the combined energy is weak (60 or less). The winds are often messy too, swinging cross-onshore or onshore through the afternoons. It’s essentially a write-off.
We finally see a pulse of life on Sunday morning, July 12th. The ENE swell pushes up to about 4 feet with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy climbs to a moderate 139, and with glassy conditions from a light SW wind, it’s actually surfable. That said, 4 feet at a reef like La Zenia isn't for beginners, and with a short period, it’ll be a bit jumbled. It’s still our one and only decent recommendation. After that morning, the wind shifts and the quality drops again.
The rest of the second week sees a bit more size – into the 4 to 5 feet range on the 14th and 15th – but the wind stays poor, mostly cross-onshore or onshore, so the surface gets chopped up. The energy is moderate (around 100-134) but the conditions spoil it. For the rest of the period, it fades back to tiny, poor surf.
So, if you’re desperate, you know where to be – La Zenia on the morning of July 12th. That’s the one and only standout, and it’s not a classic. For everything else, keep the board in the bag and watch the forecasts.
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.
La Zenia is 6 km (4 miles) from Torrevieja. If you plan a holiday in Valencia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Torrevieja. Torrevieja has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
