The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve got the lowdown on the Las Redes sandbar for the next couple of weeks. Look, I’ll be straight with you – this forecast is a tough one. The whole 16-day window is a real struggle, with no sessions that I’d honestly paddle out for. The swell is tiny, the wind is messy, and it just never seems to line up. We’ve got a solid blank run from the start right through to the end, with not a single day I’d call a proper surf. The water is sitting at 75°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only positive.

Starting off on Saturday, 1st August, the afternoon is clear but we’ve got a 1ft WNW swell at 9 seconds, with a cross-onshore wind from the W at 9 mph. The combined energy is a weak 28. It’s choppy and poor. Sunday the 2nd is much the same – a morning of 2ft WNW swell, but the period is a short 5 seconds, and the afternoon is a washout with 16 mph winds. Monday the 3rd through to the middle of the month just repeats the same story: knee-high dribble, cross-shore or cross-onshore winds, and energy readings mostly under 100.

There’s a brief moment on Wednesday morning, 5th August, where the wind goes cross-offshore from the NW at 9 mph, and the swell bumps up to 3ft from the WNW. The period is a short 5 seconds though, and the combined energy is 63 – still weak. It’s clean, but the surf is too small and gutless to get excited about. The next morning, 6th August, is similar with a clean 2ft, but again, no power.

Later in the window, around Saturday morning, 15th August, we see a 4ft WNW swell, but the period is only 6 seconds, and the wind is onshore from the SSW. The energy is 81, still weak. It’s just not happening. The final morning on Sunday, 16th August, is clean with a cross-offshore NW wind and 3ft swell, but the period is a weak 6 seconds.

There are no standouts here. For a beginner, the swell never gets over 5ft, so it’s not too big, but the quality is so poor it’s not worth it. For a seasoned surfer, there’s simply nothing to work with. The sets are short-period and weak, and the wind almost always spoils it. It’s a beach-and-reef setup, and with the consistent poor quality and gusty cross-onshore winds, this is looking more like a kite-surfing window than a paddle-surfing one. Hang in there – forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board at home.

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.
