The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here, and I’ve gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window for Las Redes is a tough one to call. Most of the time, we’re looking at waves that are barely a ripple, and the wind’s just not playing ball. There’s a bit of a pulse from the 13th, but even then, it’s messy. Let’s break it down.
We kick off Wednesday the 9th with nothing to write home about – a tiny 0.7ft swell from the west with a 9-second period, but the cross-offshore breeze from the northwest keeps it clean. The wave energy’s a weak 6, so honestly, you’re just floating out there. That sets the tone for the next few days: tiny waves, poor conditions, and a lot of waiting. The 11th and 12th are more of the same – flat and frustrating.
The first real sign of life hits on Sunday the 13th. The swell jumps to 4ft from the southeast with a 6-second period, and the combined energy climbs to 115 – that’s moderate energy, but it’s still short-period wind swell. The morning’s clean with a cross-offshore breeze from the east, but the afternoon gets chewed up by a fresh 35 km/h cross-shore wind. This is about as good as it gets, but it’s not a standout. The water temp anomaly is about average for the time of year, so nothing weird there.
The 14th and 15th drop back down into tiny surf, with the 15th offering a glassy morning on a 0.7ft west swell, but it’s barely a knee-high ripple. The 18th shows a bit of a bump with 3ft from the west and a 7-second period, with energy at 145, but the onshore breeze kills it.
Honestly, there’s no true standout here. The best on offer is the Sunday the 13th morning session at Las Redes – a sandbar break that’s fairly consistent and beginner-friendly. The swell’s 4ft from the southeast, so it’s not too big for beginners, and that clean cross-offshore wind will give you a few fun, clean lines. But don’t expect a classic. The rest of the period is a write-off, with a long gap from the 15th right through to the 23rd with barely a wave worth paddling for.
That’s it from me. Keep your eyes on the forecasts, but for now, it’s a quiet one.
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.
