The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cookin’ for the next couple weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be honest with you – this is a flat spell. We’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak waves and poor conditions. The first few days through the end of July are basically a write-off.
The first real sniff of anything rideable comes on Tuesday, 28 July afternoon. We finally see a pulse of swell bump up to 5 ft from the SE, but the energy is only moderate (183). The catch? It’s coming from the southeast, which isn’t ideal for the sandbar here, and the wind is light onshore from the SW. It’ll be lumpy and disorganised, a real challenge for anyone.
Wednesday the 29th looks messy again. Thursday the 30th morning has a bit more size at 4 ft from the ESE, with a cross-shore breeze, so the lines might be a little cleaner than the day before. The energy is moderate (102), but conditions are still a gamble.
Honestly, the standout of the whole outlook is a glassy moment. August 3rd Monday morning at Las Redes. The wind is glassy, dead calm, with a light 2 ft west swell. It’s not gonna be big or powerful, but when it’s glassy like that, you can make the most of any little bump. The water is sitting at 78°, which is a whopping 6° warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s unusual, mate. You’ll be in a warm bath.
Other than that, it’s a long, quiet outlook. The consistent theme is poor surf. If you’re a beginner, the small stuff in the first week is too small to be worth it, and the one bigger day on the 28th is over 5 ft and messy, so not great for learning. Keep your eyes on the forecasts – it can’t stay this flat forever.
Rusty.

Information about the Las Redes Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Las Redes provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Las Redes can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Las Redes 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 (Las Redes) 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 Las Redes 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.
