The Lowdown
Alright, mate, I’m gonna call it like it is – the surf at Las Redes is pretty much a dud for the next two weeks. The finder’s come up empty with no good options at all. For a break that’s usually fairly consistent, this is a real quiet spell, but it ain’t permanent. Forecasts can flip.
Kicking off on Tuesday, August 25th, we’ve got a tiny 2ft west swell with a short 8-second period, and a moderate cross-onshore breeze. The wave energy is weak (55), and it’s just choppy and poor. Not worth a look.
Wednesday the 26th and Thursday the 27th are more of the same – small, weak swell, never topping 3ft, with cross-onshore or cross-shore winds. The energy stays low (22 to 84), and the water’s at a very unusual 78°F – much warmer than normal for this time of year.
Friday morning the 28th is the only bright spot. The swell pushes to 3ft from the WNW, with a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the north. The energy finally hits moderate levels (109), and the conditions are clean. It’s the only “surfable” moment in the whole run, but the waves are still very ordinary. If you’re desperate, that’s your window.
After that, it’s back to tiny, weak waves. The rest of the month and into September sees wave heights mostly below 2ft, with periods all over the place – from 4 seconds to 19 seconds. The energy is consistently low, barely cracking triple digits. Even the glassy mornings on the 2nd and 3rd of September have next to no swell.
The second week is a total bust. From the 4th to the 9th of September, there are a few clean moments, but the swell is either too small (1ft to 3ft) or the wind picks up too much, like the 19 mph cross-on on the 5th of September, which makes it look better for a kite than a paddle.
Leave the board at home. The water’s warm, but that’s the only highlight.

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.
