The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a tough stretch ahead. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty flat and messy. We're starting with nothing good on offer, and it's going to be a long wait. There are no real surf options to get excited about. The first few days are all crossed-up and weak, and the pattern just doesn't want to set up. There are long gaps between any tiny pulses of energy, but none of them are worth paddling out for.
Let's break it down. From Monday the 20th right through to the end of July, it's a write-off. Swell heights are tiny, mostly under 3 ft, and the wind is all over the place – cross, cross-on, choppy. The combined energy is weak, barely cracking 50 (39 on Monday morning, 19 in the afternoon, 35 on Tuesday). It's a lot of close-outs and ripples. Even when the wind cleans up, like on Thursday morning the 24th with a light NW cross-off, the swell is just 0.3 ft with a 9-second period. That's barely a ripple. You'd be better off staying home and waxing your board.
The pattern continues into the first week of August. The 31st of July has a tiny bump of 3 ft from the ESE, but with a 5-second period and a moderate cross-shore, it's just lumpy. The morning of the 1st of August has a clean 3 ft from the SE, but again, it's a short 4-second period and weak energy (26). It's not worth the drive.
The only break in the mix is Las Redes, a sandbar setup that's fairly consistent. It's a beginner-friendly spot, which is good because nothing here is even close to threatening for an experienced surfer. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no need for a thick wetsuit.
The bottom line is this: there are no standouts, no hidden gems, not even a half-decent session in the forecast. For this area, a blank run like this happens. It's a quiet period. The setup is so poor that on days with the strongest wind and a beach break, it'd be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Keep your eyes on the charts, but for now, the board stays in the car.
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.
