The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty bleak for Rodiles. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak surf ahead, and it’s going to take a while before anything worth paddling out for shows up.
The first real window of opportunity doesn’t come until the morning of Sunday the 16th. That’s a week and a half away. Even then, it’s only just surfable, with a modest 3ft of NW swell and a 10-second period. The energy is still weak, only 202, but it’s clean and glassy. Don’t get too excited, though – it’s a far cry from what we’re waiting for.
The standout, and I mean the only real standout in this whole 16-day forecast, arrives on the morning of Tuesday the 18th. This is the one we’ve been waiting for. The swell jumps to a solid 7ft out of the NW with an 11-second period, and the energy meter is pumping at 1185 – that’s strong, serious energy. The wind is light and offshore from the WNW, which for Rodiles (a river mouth) is perfect. It’s going to be clean, powerful, and lined up. This is an expert-only day though; at 7ft, it’s well overhead and pushing hard. If you’ve got the skills, this is the session to circle on the calendar. The afternoon stays big at 7ft, but the wind swings cross-shore and it gets a bit more tricky.
Before that, the weekend of the 16th and 17th is just average. The morning of the 16th is the only time it’s even worth a look, and by Monday afternoon the swell jumps to 6ft but with a junky 7-second period and onshore wind – that’s a mess. As for the water temp, it’s about average for this time of year, so a good summer wetsuit is all you need.
The rest of the period, from the 19th onward, fades back into small, weak, and unremarkable surf. There’s a final glassy morning on the 20th with 3ft, but it’s not enough to write home about. So, keep your expectations low for the next two weeks, and save your energy for that Tuesday morning push.
Rusty out.

Information about the Rodiles Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Rodiles provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Rodiles can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Rodiles 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 (Rodiles) 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 Rodiles 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.
Rodiles is 23 km (14 miles) from the city of Gijon. If you plan a holiday in Asturias, look for hotels and other accommodation in Gijon. Gijon has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
