Table - best surf conditions forecast for La Zenia over the next 16 days.
Alright, let's take a look at La Zenia over the next couple weeks. Gotta be honest – it's flat. No surf worth paddling out for in the entire 16-day window. Every session is showing poor conditions, and the spot itself is an inconsistent reef that rarely breaks. So a gap like this is pretty normal around here – it happens. But it doesn't stay dead forever.
Water temp on the 8th of July was 80°F, which is a solid 7 degrees warmer than average for this time of year. That's very unusual – you'll feel the difference.
From July 8 through July 23, it's all flat. A few tiny bumps here and there – like 1 ft on the 9th, 1 ft on the 12th, even 4 ft on the 14th – but all with poor wind, short periods (3–6 seconds), and combined energy that never gets into moderate territory. The highest energy is 168 on the 14th (still just moderate), but the wind is cross-shore and the waves are a mess. Even the glassy mornings on the 10th and 15th had zero swell.
No standouts. The only break is La Zenia – an advanced reef that's often crowded. But with no swell, crowds aren't an issue. If we ever get an east swell with decent period and light offshore wind, it could be good. Not happening now.
Just a quiet stretch. Hang tight – forecasts change.

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.
