Alright, Rusty here with the lowdown for La Zenia. Gotta be honest—this one's a real bummer. The next week and a half is mostly flat, with barely a ripple worth paddling for. You'll be waitin' a long time.
From Saturday July 4th through Sunday July 12th, it's a whole lot of nothin'. Tiny waves, like 0.7ft to 1ft, with short periods under 8 seconds, and combined swell energy barely hitting double digits (between 0 and 37). That's weak, local wind slop. The water is a warm 79°F, which is *much* warmer than normal for this time of year—over 5°F above average. It's like bath water.
There's a little pulse on Sunday morning July 12th—a spike to 2ft from the south, period of 6 seconds, combined energy of 37. But with onshore winds from the ESE, it's gonna be choppy and messy. Not worth the hassle.
From Monday July 13th onward, it's still tiny, mostly under 2ft, with weak periods. A few mornings glass off nicely, like Wednesday July 15th with a light offshore from the WNW, clean but only 1ft of northeast swell. Combined energy just 4. Thursday July 16th and Friday July 17th start glassy, but again, waist-high dribble.
La Zenia is an advanced reef break that's inconsistent and often crowded, but with conditions this small and weak, crowds won't be a problem. The ideal swell is from the east, but what we get is tiny and from the wrong angles.
There's no standout session in this whole 16-day window. The first real chance of anything rideable might be around July 15th or 16th, but it's a long shot. Keep an eye on the forecasts—it's not usually this dead for this long. Hang in there.
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.
