The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you about Las Redes. I’ve looked at the 16-day picture, and I gotta say, it’s a quiet stretch. The swell is small, the wind is often messy, and the scores are low. We’ve got a long gap of poor conditions before anything even remotely interesting shows up.
The first real chance to paddle out isn’t until Tuesday morning, 11 August. That morning, the wind goes glassy, which is a huge plus. The swell is tiny at 3ft from the WNW, with a short period of 6 seconds, so it’ll be weak and wobbly. The combined energy is a low 54, so don’t expect any power. Still, glassy conditions at a beginner-friendly sandbar like Las Redes means it’ll be clean, even if the waves are small. The water is sitting at 77°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – a good 4°F above the average, so you can leave the thick wetsuit at home.
The next morning, Wednesday 12 August, also starts glassy with a light southerly breeze. Same story: tiny 2ft swell from the west, period of 5 seconds, very weak energy (28). It’s clean, but barely rideable. Crowds are possible here, so on these calm mornings, you might see a few other beginners out.
Moving into the second week, the outlook doesn’t get much better. Thursday morning, 13 August, offers a clean window with a light offshore wind from the NNE. The swell is still only 2ft from the west, but the period bumps up to 9 seconds, giving it a bit more shape. The combined energy is 79, still weak, but it’s the best of a very quiet bunch. That northwest cross-off wind on Wednesday morning, 19 August, also keeps things clean with a 3ft swell from the west, but it’s a short 6-second period and moderate breeze.
Honestly, there’s no standout here. It’s a stretch of tiny, weak swells and often poor wind. The few moments of glassy or offshore wind are the only saving grace, but the waves are just too small to get excited about. It’s a solid 16 days for the paddleboard, not the surfboard.
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.
