The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. I’m looking over the next 16 days for Las Redes and I’ll be honest – it’s a rough stretch. No proper surf to get stoked about. The water is sitting at a very unusual 76°F, way warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only good news.
We start off on Tuesday the 15th with tiny 0.7ft swell from the WNW, only a 9-second period and weak energy (9). Morning is clean but there’s nothing to ride. Wednesday and Thursday stay small with swell up to 3ft but cross and onshore winds ruin any chance. Energy creeps up to 54–94 but it’s all chop. By Friday the 18th it’s 1ft and messy. Saturday the 19th sees a jump to 5ft from the SE with 150 energy, but it’s a short 6-second windswell and a strong cross-shore breeze – lumpy and better for kite surfing than proper surfing.
Sunday the 20th through Tuesday the 23rd is mostly flat – 0.3ft waves, clean but no swell. Wednesday the 23rd afternoon brings another pulse: 5ft SE, 6 seconds, 152 energy, still cross-shore and lumpy. Thursday the 24th repeats that same story – 4ft SE, 5 seconds, 109 energy – fresh cross-shore and lumpy.
Friday the 25th and Saturday the 26th show 3–4ft SE swell with cleaner mornings on Friday, but the period stays short at 5–6 seconds and energy is low to moderate (58–84). Nothing special. From Sunday the 27th to Wednesday the 30th it fades back to 0.7–2ft with onshore or cross-onshore winds and low energy – except Tuesday the 29th morning when a 4ft WNW swell with 240 energy shows up, but it’s light cross-onshore and still poor.
Truth is, there’s no standout session. Even the bigger energy days come with bad wind and short-period slop. For this area, a dry spell isn’t unusual – forecasts can always flip, but right now I’d leave the board at home.
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.
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.
