The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer.

To be straight with you, this 16-day outlook is a tough one. We're looking at a long stretch of small, weak, and mostly messy surf. The first real recommendation isn't until the 12th of September, and even then, it's a flat spell for the first part of the period. The water is much warmer than normal for this time of year at 80°, which is a nice touch for a paddle but doesn't help the waves. In fact, you're looking at a blank run of several days before anything even registers a score.

La Zenia is the only break on the cards, a reef setup that's inconsistent and can be a bit fickle. The early days, starting Saturday the 12th, are a write-off. Tiny swell, short period of 5 seconds, and a moderate cross-onshore breeze making it choppy. The combined swell energy is pathetically weak, sitting at 8 on Saturday morning. It's poor surf conditions all the way.

Sunday the 13th isn't any better – still tiny with a weak 38 energy reading and onshore vibes. Monday the 14th sees a completely clean morning with a light cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is only 1ft from the ESE with a period of 4 seconds – not enough to get excited about, energy is a measly 9.

We get a couple of glassy, dead calm mornings on the 16th and 23rd of September, but again, the swell is practically non-existent with periods of 3 seconds. It's flat, mate.

The best of the bunch, if you can call it that, looks to be later in the window. On Saturday the 26th of September, we see a slight increase in size with a 3ft swell from the ENE, and the period stretches to 8 seconds. The combined energy hits 99, which is the strongest we'll see. However, it comes with a moderate cross-onshore wind on the afternoon session that'll put a chop on it. It's still not great.

There's a moment on Sunday the 27th of September morning with a light cross-offshore wind and a clean 2ft swell from the E. The period is 7 seconds and energy is 51. That's the cleanest you're likely to see, but the waves will be small and weak.

Honestly, there are no standouts here. The swell is too small, the periods are too short, and the winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore. For an inconsistent reef that doesn't like short-period swell, this is a tough outlook. If you're desperate for a paddle on a longboard, the cleanest windows are Monday 14th morning, or Sunday 27th morning, but don't expect any real ride.

This is one of those periods where the forecast can change, so keep an eye on it, but as it stands, it's a pretty bleak run.

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.
