Table - best surf conditions forecast for Las Redes over the next 16 days.
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks. Straight up, I gotta be honest with ya – it’s a bit of a tough stretch. The swell is tiny and the winds are mostly working against us, so we’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel here. The water is running about 77°, which is a good 6° warmer than you’d expect for this time of year – that’s a seriously unusual warm spell, so at least you won’t need a thick suit.
For the first week and a half, everything is rated as poor. We’re talking waves below 3 ft for days on end, with cross-shore and cross-onshore breezes making a mess of things. The combined energy is almost always in the weak range (under 100) – a piddly 16, then 10, then 38. It’s just not worth paddling out.
We finally get a little glimmer of hope on Wednesday, July 24th. During the morning, we’ll see a bump in swell to 4 ft from the WNW, with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy jumps up to a moderate 122, so there’s a bit more push. The wind will be cross-shore and moderate though, so it’ll be a bit lumpy. That’s the only day that even sniffs at being a goer for the whole 16-day run. For the rest of the time, the wind is either onshore, cross-onshore, or just too strong to make these tiny waves rideable.
Forget about Friday the 26th – it’s clean with a bit of offshore from the N, but the wave height is a pathetic 0.7 ft. That’s a lake, not a surf break.
So, the hard truth is there’s really only one window worth talking about: Wednesday, July 24th morning at Las Redes. That 4 ft WNW swell with moderate energy (122) is the best we’re going to get. It’s not a standout by any stretch, but it’s the only time the numbers line up for a paddle. Don’t expect perfection, but it’s the least worst option on the table. The rest of the time? Save your wax.
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.
