The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks down at La Zenia.

To be honest, the outlook is a bit grim for a while. We’ve got a long stretch of weak, short-period, wind-affected slop coming in. The first real chance of anything decent won’t arrive until the morning of Monday, the 29th of July. That’s a solid 10-day gap with nothing worth paddling out for, so you’re better off leaving the boards in the car for a while.

The first faint glimmer of hope comes on the morning of Monday, the 29th. La Zenia (Spain) is a reef break, and it’s an inconsistent one, so when it does work, it’s a bit of an event. We’ll see a small 4ft easterly swell with a short period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is a weak 104. The real kicker though, is the wind. With a light offshore breezes from the WNW, those tiny waves will be clean. The water is a very unusual 80°F – that’s much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t need a wetsuit. It’s a tiny window of glassy conditions, but the swell is weak and the period is short, so expect small, crumbly waves. It’s not a standout, just a chance to get wet.

The morning of Tuesday, the 30th of July, is a similar story. Another 4ft east swell, but with a period of 6 seconds and glassy conditions from the SSW. The energy is a bit weaker at 85, so it’s still very small. Don’t expect much.

The real standout, and the only one worth getting excited about, is the afternoon of Tuesday, the 30th. The swell bumps up to 5ft from the east, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy hits 181, which is moderate energy. The wave height is getting into the beginner zone, but the wind is a moderate cross-onshore from the east, which will chop it up and make it mess. The reef setup might handle it better than a beach, but onshore wind is onshore wind. It’s the best of a bad bunch, but it’s not a classic. This is a break that can get crowded often, so if you’re out there, expect company.

Stay patient, lads. It’s a long wait for very little reward.

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.
