The Lowdown

Alright, I’m gonna be straight with you – this is a bleak stretch for La Zenia. We’re looking at a solid 16-day forecast and honestly, there’s barely a pulse in the water. The first real chance to even consider a paddle doesn’t come until Saturday, the 1st of August.

The whole first week is a write-off. From the 24th of July through to the 31st, it’s the same story day after day: tiny swell, weak energy, and messy wind. You’ll see a few early mornings with glassy conditions, like on Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th, but the swell is just too small to do anything with – we’re talking knee-high slop at best. The combined energy barely scratches double digits most days, often sitting below 40 (weak energy). It’s frustrating because the water is running much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that doesn’t help when there’s no waves.

Finally, on the morning of Saturday the 1st of August, we get a sniff of something. It’s still not great, but the wind swings around to a light cross-offshore from the north, cleaning things up. The swell picks up to about 3 ft from the ESE with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 69 (weak energy). It’s surfable, but very ordinary. The crowd factor at La Zenia is often an issue, so even on a mediocre day like this, expect a few heads in the water.

Sunday the 2nd of August morning looks glassy again, but the swell drops back to 2 ft with a short 5-second period, and the energy is down to 23. It’s a flat, weak pulse.

After that, from Monday the 3rd of August onwards, the whole bottom drops out. Swell heights crater to 0.7 ft and 1.0 ft, periods drop to 3 or 4 seconds, and the combined energy is barely a whisper – often just 1 or 2 (weak energy). There’s a few clean mornings in there, like Wednesday the 5th and Thursday the 6th, but with no swell to speak of, it’s strictly a swimming or snorkeling day.

The best of a bad bunch is the morning of Saturday the 1st of August. That’s your one window. The conditions are clean, the swell is small but rideable for a longboard or a foamie, and the water is warm. But don’t expect any power or push. It’s a low-energy, short-period windswell, so it’ll be lumpy and weak.

For a break that’s exposed and inconsistent like La Zenia, a blank run like this isn’t unusual. It’s a tough period, but forecasts can change. Keep an eye on the wind charts.

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.
