The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next 16 days are looking pretty grim for a paddle. I’ve scanned the whole window and there’s just nothing to get excited about. We’re talking a full run of flat-to-puny waves with messy wind. It’s one of those stretches where you’re better off taking the board in for a repair or finding something else to do.

We start off now, Friday the 17th of July, at Las Redes. The swell is tiny, around 0.7 ft to 1.0 ft, coming from the west-northwest with a short, weak period. The combined energy is next to nothing (12 to 26), and it’s just poor surf. The wind is cross or cross-off, but with no real wave to work with, it’s a non-starter.

This pattern locks in for days. Saturday the 18th through to the end of July, every session is rated as poor. The swell height rarely cracks 3 ft, and when it does, the period is a paltry 4 to 5 seconds – that’s windswell junk. The combined energy stays low, mostly between 15 and 56, which is weak. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, with a few brief clean morning windows on the 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 27th, 28th, and 29th. But even then, the swell is too small and weak to ride. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.

To be honest, this is a classic blank run for this area. It’s a sandbar setup and it’s fairly consistent normally, but right now the ocean is just not delivering. Forecasts can change, but there’s not a single standout in the lot. If you’ve got a kite, those cross-onshore breezes on the 26th and 27th (with 3 ft swell and 15-18 mph winds) might offer some interest, but for a surfboard, it’s a hard pass.

Hang in there, mate. Sometimes the ocean just needs a nap.

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.
