The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee and listen up. Rusty here, looking at the next couple of weeks for us. Honest truth? It's a pretty flat run, and I mean *really* flat. The first proper surfable day isn't until Sunday the 17th, so we've got a solid nine-day gap of nothing worth paddling for.
Las Redes is our only option, and it's a beginner-friendly sandbar. The water is still warm, at 77°F, which is way warmer than normal for this time of year – feels like a bath.
The first half of the outlook is a write-off. Tiny dribbles, weak windswell, and poor conditions. Saturday the 9th might look clean in the morning, but at 3ft from the WNW, it's just not got the grunt. The combined energy is a measly 41 (weak).
Friday the 15th and Saturday the 16th are flat as a pancake. Don't even bother.
Okay, now for the only real highlight. Jump forward to Monday the 17th (August). The morning session is our best bet. We've got a clean 4ft swell from the WNW with a moderate cross-offshore breeze. The combined energy finally bumps up to 85 (still moderate, but the best we'll see). It's a small wave, but it will be clean and rideable. It's a small wave, so it's good for beginners. The afternoon goes to shit with a 18 mph cross-onshore wind, so get out early.
Tuesday the 18th and Wednesday the 19th are back to small, weak waves. The end of the window on Friday the 21st and Saturday the 22nd shows a weird shift to an ESE swell, but it's only 4ft with a cross-shore wind, so it's messy.
So, to sum it up: the only standout is the morning of Monday the 17th. It's not a classic, but it's the only clean, rideable wave we're going to get. Get on it.
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.
Las Redes is 5 km (3 miles) from the city of Rota. If you plan a holiday in Andalucia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Rota. Rota has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
