Alright folks, Rusty here, and I’ve got to give it to you straight about Las Redes. The outlook for the next couple of weeks is a real bummer. I’m looking at the charts and there just isn’t any surf worth talking about.
Everything starts off wrong. On Friday morning, July 3rd, there’s a little bump of 4ft swell from the southeast with a weak 6-second period, but the wind is howling cross-shore at 19 mph. That water is going to be a lumpy, choppy mess. The combined energy is moderate (113), but with those winds, you’d be fighting a losing battle. It’s a flat-out no.
From there, it’s a long, flat spell. For days and days, we are looking at waves under 2ft, with either onshore or cross-shore winds messing up what little texture there is. There’s one morning, Tuesday July 7th, where it goes dead calm and glassy, but the swell is a measly 0.3ft. You can’t surf what isn't there.
We see a few cleaner moments in the second week, like a light cross-offshore breeze on Saturday, July 18th, but the swell is still pathetic – 0.7ft to 1ft with a long 10-second period. It’s a clean, empty ocean, but that’s all it is.
If I had to pick a "least bad" moment, I really can't. There are no standouts. The water on the first day is a very unusual 78°F – that’s more than 7° warmer than average – but that fact doesn't put any power in the waves.
This is one of those classic flat spells for this sandbar. It’s a beginner spot that can be fun, but its consistency is only "fairly consistent" at best, and right now, it's fully asleep. Forget the paddle board; this setup is way more interesting for a kite surfer with a big kite. Forecasts can flip, and it can’t stay this bad forever, but for the foreseeable future, keep your board in the car.

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.
Las Redes is 5 km (3 miles) from the city of Rota. If you plan a holiday in Andalucia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Rota. Rota has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
