The Lowdown
Gap first: nothing worth paddling out for from now until the morning of the 24th. That’s a solid stretch of ankle-biters and onshores—a full week of staring at flat water. A couple of glassy moments on the 19th and 22nd, but with waves under 2 feet, you’re better off re-waxing and waiting.
Then, on Monday the 24th of August, things finally switch on. Rodiles (Asturias) goes from dead to dangerous. Morning shows a 7.2ft WNW swell with a short, lumpy 6-second period—not clean, but the offshore SW wind at 6 mph keeps it tidy. That’s a real push of energy, and the combined swell energy jumps to 447 (moderate). By the afternoon, it’s the one: 8.2ft from the NW, period stretching to 8 seconds, and a moderate offshore breeze at 12 mph out of the WSW. Energy reads 836—strong. This is the standout of the whole window. For experts only, proper river-mouth power. Water temp is 72.3°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so booties are optional.
Tuesday the 25th is a step down: 5.6ft in the morning, easing to 4.6ft by afternoon, with a cross-offshore wind that keeps it clean but a bit bumpy. Energy fades from 396 to 217. Still ridable, but the spark is gone. Wednesday the 26th drops off fast—under 3 feet and fading.
There’s a brief, modest pulse on Sunday the 30th and Monday the 31st: around 3.3ft to 3.6ft from the NNW, with 10 to 11-second intervals and light cross-offshore winds in the mornings. Energy sits in the 254 to 327 range (moderate). These are clean-ish, average days—not the big one, but enough to get wet. Afternoon winds turn cross-shore and chop things up, so mornings are your window.
Overall: the 24th afternoon is the pick of the month. Big, clean, powerful—set your alarm. The rest is waiting for leftovers.

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.
