The Lowdown

Alright, grab a coffee, let’s have a look at what’s on the table for La Zenia. This reef setup is inconsistent, but when it gets the right E swell and clean offshore winds, it can be a real treat. The next 16 days, though... we’ve got a long, quiet stretch ahead.

From late August all the way through the first week of September, the surf is just not happening. The swell heights are tiny, mostly below 2ft, with short periods around 4 to 6 seconds. The wave energy is in the single digits or low double digits (between 1 and 22) – that’s basically flat. Winds are glassy in the mornings but swing onshore (ESE) most afternoons, so even the little bumps are messy. This is a blank run for sure, and for this area, that’s fairly typical—consistent swells aren’t the norm here. Still, forecasts can change, so don’t write it off completely.

Around Wednesday, September 4th, there’s a tiny window: Friday morning shows a clean little 2ft from the ESE with a light N wind giving cross-offshore conditions. The period’s a bit short at 5 seconds, but the wave energy is moderate at 45. It’s not going to be epic, but for a longboard or a foamie, it could be a fun little session if you’re desperate.

The first real standout doesn’t arrive until Thursday, September 10th. The morning brings a clean 4ft swell from the S, with a period of 7 seconds, and glassy conditions (ESE wind at 0 km/h). The combined energy hits 143 – that’s moderate wave energy. At just over 4ft, it’s fine for intermediates, but beginners should be cautious as it’s approaching that 5ft mark. The water is a very unusual 81°F, which is much warmer than normal for the time of year.

Then again on Friday, September 11th, a similar story: a 4ft NE swell (period 7 seconds) with an offshore W wind at 6 mph, making for clean conditions. The wave energy is even better here at 182. This could be the pick of the fortnight. The wind is offshore and light, which should keep the reef clean and the waves hollow enough for the advanced crew. That NE direction isn’t the optimum (the reef likes E), but the quality of the wind more than makes up for it.

After that, the surf fades again. Saturday, September 12th sees a jump in swell height to 4ft from the ENE, but the wind swings onshore (E at 12 mph), making it choppy and lumpy. Wave energy is moderate at 80, but the quality is poor.

So, the bottom line: We’ve got a long, flat spell until Friday, September 11th. That morning is your best bet—clean, offshore winds and a punchy 4ft swell. Be ready to pounce because La Zenia doesn’t serve up clean windows like that very often. For the experts, the reef will have some juice. For the rest, it’s a quiet few weeks.

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.
