The Lowdown
Alright folks, let's have a look at the next 16 days. I'm not gonna sugarcoat it – La Zenia is looking like a ghost town for surf.
For the first two weeks, it's a flat spell. The only half-decent chance to get wet comes on the morning of Saturday, 9th August. We're looking at a small 3 ft swell from the NE, with a period of just 5 seconds. That's a short-period windswell, not the good stuff. The wave energy is weak (45). The wind is a light cross-shore, so it'll be a little bumpy, but it's still a "poor surf conditions" call. The quality just isn't there.
The morning of Saturday, 8th August is the other faint hope. You get a 3 ft swell from the NE, a 5-second period, and a light offshore breeze. The energy is still weak (45). It's clean, but it's weak and inconsistent.
The rest of the time? It's a wasteland of tiny, onshore junk. We're talking 0.7 ft to 2 ft waves, with periods of 3 to 6 seconds. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, making a mess of everything. The water is about 83°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's the only thing to get excited about.
Forecasts can change, and a stretch like this is normal for the area sometimes. But for now, it's a definite no-go. On those afternoons with a strong onshore wind, you'd be better off with a kite than a surfboard.

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.
