The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Well, to be honest, it’s a pretty bleak start. We’re looking at a long stretch of nothing much, with the first real chance for a wave coming late on Thursday, August 6th, but even that’s a mess. The real story is a big pulse of energy that shows up on Friday, August 7th, and that’s where all the focus should be.
Through the end of July and the first week of August, it’s a desert. Tiny waves, onshore junk, and just plain poor conditions. You’re looking at a solid 10 days of flat or close-to-flat, choppy slop. Don’t even bother waxing the board.
Then, things get interesting. The pulse that arrives on Thursday afternoon, August 6th, is a big one – a solid 8 ft of swell from the west-northwest, but it’s hammered by onshore wind and a short period around 7 seconds. The combined energy is a beefy 596 (moderate energy), but the wind is all wrong, and it’s messy. This one is more for the kite crew than us paddlers.
The standout is Friday morning, August 7th. This is the one to circle. The swell drops slightly to 7 ft, still solid, coming from the north-northwest. The period is still short at 8 seconds, but the wind goes glassy, dead calm. The combined energy is still pumping at 587 (moderate energy). This is going to be clean, powerful, and a bit unruly. At 7 ft, this is expert territory at Rodiles (Asturias). It’s a river mouth, and with that size, it’ll be a heavy, fast, shifty beast. The water temp is about normal for this time of year at 69°. The northwest swell isn’t the optimum direction for this spot – it likes a west-northwest – so it’ll be a bit wally and lined up, but the glassy conditions make it a must-check. Expect crowds, as it’s often busy. If you’re an expert, be there early.
After that, Saturday the 8th is still rideable. The swell drops to 4 ft from the north, with a period of 8 seconds. The morning has a light east cross-onshore, which will chunk it up a bit. The combined energy is 269 (moderate energy). It’s a step down, but still a fun option for the bigger crew. After that, it fades away again into another week of tiny, weak surf and poor winds.
So, in short: the first week is a total write-off. The big call is Friday morning, August 7th, for the experts. Saturday morning, August 8th, is the backup for the strong swimmers. After that, it looks like another lull.
Rusty.

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.
