The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's happening with our local surf.

Honestly, it's a tough stretch for the next couple of weeks. We're looking at a flat spell that's going to test your patience. From the start of the outlook on Thursday, August 6th, right through to the end of the period on Friday, August 21st, the swell is just tiny. We're seeing wave heights barely over 3 feet, and most of the time it's way smaller than that. The combined swell energy is weak, mostly sitting under 100 (46, 33, 35, etc.), which tells you there's just nothing in the water.

The only break on the radar is Las Redes, a sandbar setup. It's a beginner-friendly spot, fairly consistent, but with this kind of swell, it's almost always a non-starter. The wind is a mixed bag – you'll get a bit of everything from cross-off to cross-on to glassy conditions, but it doesn't matter when the waves are this poor. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The first few days, from August 6th to the 9th, are a total write-off. The data says "poor surf conditions" over and over. Saturday morning, August 8th, offers a brief moment of glassy conditions with clean water, but the swell is only 2 feet with a weak 5-second period and energy of just 27. It's barely a ripple. The rest of the weekend and into the next week is the same story – small, choppy, and weak.

The second week doesn't get any better. From August 13th all the way through to the 21st, the swell stays tiny, often below 2 feet, and the combined energy never climbs above 71. There's a hint of a longer period (9-12 seconds) on some days, but it's still too small to do anything with. The wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, keeping it messy.

The bottom line is, there are no good surf options in this 16-day window. It's a rare dry spell for this area, but it happens. The forecasts can change, so don't throw the towel in completely, but for now, I'd say save your energy and wax. It's a flat, blank run.

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.
