The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what we’ve got on the table.

First up, the water is sitting at a very unusual 83°F at La Zenia – that’s over 6°F warmer than normal for this time of year, which is pretty wild. You’ll be surfing in bathwater.

Right now, we’re in a dry spell. There’s simply no surf worth paddling out for from now through to the morning of Saturday, September 7th. That’s nearly a two-week gap of flat, tiny, or just junk conditions. You’ll see glassy mornings and clean-looking water, but with swell heights barely scraping 1 foot to 2 feet and periods under 8 seconds, it’s all just windswell mush. Don’t bother.

The only real flicker of life comes on Monday morning, September 7th, at La Zenia (a reef break that’s inconsistent, so this is notable). We get a bit of ESE swell pushing 3 feet from a 6-second period, combined energy of 82 (weak), and a light cross-off wind from the SW making it clean. It’s surfable, but honestly, it’s still very ordinary – you’ll get a few knee-high sliders, but nothing to write home about. The afternoon falls apart with onshore chop.

That’s it. One morning with weak, marginal waves after a long, long wait. If you’re a beginner, this tiny swell is fine, but don’t expect a proper ride. For the rest, leave the board in the car.

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.
