The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for Las Redes over the next couple of weeks. I'll be straight with ya – this stretch looks pretty grim. The water temp is sitting at 77°, which is a good five and a half degrees warmer than usual for this time of year – that's a real standout, feels like bath water compared to normal.
Honestly, the outlook for the next 16 days is a tough read for a surfer. We've got a long stretch of poor surf conditions with tiny, weak waves and dodgy winds. From Wednesday the 9th all the way through to Tuesday the 22nd, there's nothing worth paddling out for. The swell heights barely tickle 3 ft on the 9th, and the period is a weak 4 seconds with a combined energy of just 27 – that's about as weak as it gets. The winds are mostly cross or cross-on, making for a choppy mess.
There are a few moments where the wind goes clean offshore, like on the morning of the 15th with a light breeze from the NE, but the swell is a measly 0.7 ft with a 9-second period. That's just not enough push to ride. You'd be bobbing around on a lake.
The only flicker of something a little more interesting comes on Sunday the 13th in the afternoon. The swell bumps up to 4 ft from the SE with a combined energy of 120 – that's moderate energy for a change. But the period is still a short 6 seconds, and the wind is a fresh cross-shore from the ESE at 22 mph, so it'll be lumpy and hard to manage. For a beginner break like Las Redes, that's a messy combo. Not a standout by any means.
Then late in the window, on the morning of Monday the 23rd, we get a clean window with light ENE cross-offshore winds and a 2 ft swell from the ESE. The period is only 4 seconds, though, so the wave quality won't be great. Still, if you're desperate, that's the cleanest look of the whole run.
The takeaway: there are no standout days here. This region is in a dry spell. The swell is too small and too weak for any real fun. Forecasts can change, but for now, I'd keep the board in the car and wait for something better.
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.
