The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it.
It’s a rough stretch for Las Redes over the next couple of weeks. Honestly, there’s no time where you’ll be ripping into clean, powerful waves. The whole 16-day window looks pretty flat and weak, so don’t get your hopes up.
We start off Sunday, July 26th with tiny, weak swell. Morning has a 3ft WNW swell but the period is a poor 5 seconds – that’s just wind slop, not real surf. The north-northwest breeze is cross-off, so it’s clean but the wave energy is minimal (28). Afternoon even worse: 2ft and 17 energy.
Monday, July 27th morning drops to 1ft WNW. Tuesday morning the 28th is virtually flat at 0.3ft. The combined energy is down to 2. It’s dead.
We do get a bit of a pulse late Monday afternoon, July 27th: 5ft from the SE at 6 seconds, with 144 energy units – that’s the most energy in the whole forecast, but it’s short period, clean? No. The wind is a stiff 22 mph cross-shore, so it’s choppy and messy. Honestly, that looks more like a kite session than a paddle.
The rest of the week and into early August is all small stuff: mostly under 2ft, short periods, weak combined energy rarely above 50. Winds are mostly cross-off or light, but with no swell to work with, it’s pointless. Thursday morning August 6th is glassy with 1ft WNW, and Friday August 7th morning has a brief offshore NNE breeze at 9 mph on a 2ft WNW swell (49 energy), but again, it’s only 5 second period – barely rideable.
For the later part, August 9th and 10th, we see 3ft and 3ft swell but it’s all short period and onshore or cross-onshore wind. No quality.
The water temperature is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual going on there.
So what’s the best on offer? Honestly, nothing stands out. If I had to pick a least-crappy moment, it’d be Friday morning August 7th – the offshore wind will make the 2ft WNW swell look smooth, but don’t expect much. It’s a beginner-friendly wave anyway, so if you’re learning and just want to get wet, that’s your window. But even then, it’s inconsistent.
Big gap of days with no real recommendations – pretty much the whole 16 days. This kind of run is pretty normal for the area when there’s no solid swell.
Stay tuned, but don’t hold your breath.

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.
