Updates in  hr  min  s Forecast update imminent

Alright mates, Rusty here again. Let’s size up Redondo Beach for the next couple weeks.

First few days are a total dud. From Friday July 3rd through Monday the 6th, we’ve got tiny waves from 2ft to 3ft, most of it blown out by onshore or side-onshore wind. Combined swell energy is weak to moderate (236 – 372). Just not worth paddling out.

The first real window opens up Wednesday morning July 8th. Clean 3ft SSW groundswell with a long 16-second period, energy hitting 507 (moderate). Wind is a light side-offshore from the SSE – that’s clean, glassy conditions. It’s small but will be fun and tidy for the exposed beach break that Redondo Beach is.

Another decent morning comes Saturday July 11th. Similar 3ft SSW swell, still long period at 15 seconds, energy around 210 (moderate). Wind again light side-offshore from the SSE. Clean lines on offer again.

Water temperature is about average for this time of year.

Afternoons get choppy with onshore wind, so mornings are the only game.

The second week is flat and weak. From Sunday the 12th onward, we’re looking at 1ft to 2ft swells, poor wind, and energy dropping as low as 92. A few clean mornings on the 14th and 15th don’t save it – the swell is just too small.

Your best bet is Wednesday morning July 8th, with Saturday the 11th as a backup. After that, it’s a long spell of nothing.

Rusty.

Information about the Redondo Beach Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Redondo Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Redondo Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Redondo Beach 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 (Redondo Beach) 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 Redondo Beach 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.

Redondo Beach is 2 km (1 miles) from Redondo Beach. If you plan a vacation in Los Angeles County, look for hotels and other accommodation in Redondo Beach. Redondo Beach has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
