The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I’m looking at this and it’s a tough stretch. The whole 16-day window is pretty flat and messy. There’s no real swell to speak of, and the conditions are a mixed bag of cross-shore breezes and onshore chop. The first real sniff of anything is on Thursday, August 10th, but even then it’s not much to write home about.
For the first week and a bit, we’re looking at tiny waves, mostly under 1 feet, with a lot of cross and cross-onshore winds. The water temp is sitting at 73°, which is about average for this time of year, so you won’t need a thick wetsuit, but you will need patience. There’s a gap of several days with no real recommendations, so unless you’re desperate for a paddle, I’d wait.
The only time the swell nudges up is around Thursday morning, August 10th, when we see a 3 ft swell from the west, with a period of 6 seconds. That’s short-period windswell, so it’s not going to have much punch. The combined energy is 131 (moderate), but the wind is a light cross-onshore from the SSE, so it’ll be a bit bumpy. For a beginner-friendly sandbar like Las Redes, it’s still a surfable option, but it’s not a standout. The north-northeast offshore wind is the preferred direction for this spot, and we don’t get that here.
Overall, the setup here is more interesting for a kite than a paddle. The waves are small, the wind is often cross or onshore, and the quality is consistently poor. It’s one of those periods where you’re better off leaving the board in the car and just watching the horizon.
Rusty.

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.
