The Lowdown
Alright mate, let’s talk about Las Redes for the next couple weeks, and I’ll be honest – it’s a bleak outlook. There’s not a single day in this 16-day window that I’d call good. The swell is flat, the wind is mostly wrong, and the wave energy is laughable most of the time.
The water is sitting at a very unusual 78°F for this time of year – that’s 6°F warmer than normal, so the ocean feels like a warm bath. That’s really the only standout thing.
We start Monday the 7th morning with a tiny 0.3m (1ft) from the west, a 14-second period, but it’s cross-off wind and the energy is weak (43). Too small to surf. That’s the story for the first week. Tuesday the 8th morning gets a little bump to 0.7m (2ft) from the WNW, 11-second period, energy just touching moderate (117), but the cross wind messes it up. It’s bumpy and weak.
You’ll see days of nothing – heights under 0.5m (2ft). Saturday the 12th afternoon shows a jump to 1.2m (4ft) from the ESE, but the period is a short 5 seconds, energy weak (79), and it’s cross-shore wind. Not worth it. Sunday the 13th afternoon has some energy (150) with a 1.5m (5ft) swell from the ESE, but it’s cross-onshore and choppy. A beach break in those conditions is just a mess.
The only real mention goes to Las Redes – a sandbar that’s fairly consistent but rarely has much size. The optimum swell direction is WSW, but most pulses we get are from ESE or SE – not matching up. Crowds are sometimes an issue, but with this forecast, you’ll have it empty. The whole thing looks better for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer given the constant wind and lack of any proper wave face.
Second week brings no relief. Tuesday the 22nd morning is glassy but the swell is a pathetic 0.1m (0.3ft) with an 11-second period. Flat as a pancake. It’s a long dry spell, but forecasts can change – though right now there is absolutely nothing to get excited about.

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.
