The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Rodiles over the next couple of weeks.
Alright, I gotta be straight with you – the first week and a half is a bit of a write-off. We’ve got a long stretch of barely anything on offer until we get to the very end of the month. The surf shows up, but it’s small, weak, and the conditions are just plain ordinary. You’ll see tiny waves around 2ft to 3ft with a combined swell energy that barely gets into the double digits (59 to 86). The water is currently a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 71°F.
We do get a few glassy mornings, like Saturday the 15th and again on Sunday the 23rd of August, but the swell is just too small and weak to get excited about. It’s ankle to knee-high stuff with a period of only 6 to 7 seconds, so not much push. There’s a gap of several days here where you’re really just waiting for something better.
Now, hold on to your board, because things flip completely around the corner. The real standout is the morning of Saturday, the 29th of August. This is the one we’ve been waiting for. We’re looking at a solid 10ft swell from the NNW, and get this – a very long period of 14 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy. The combined swell energy is a massive 3659, which is absolutely cooking. The wind is light and cross-offshore (W, 6 mph), which will keep it clean. For a river mouth like Rodiles, that long-period swell from the NW/NNW is exactly what you want. This is expert territory, though – at 10ft, it’s big and powerful, so only for those with plenty of experience.
The Saturday afternoon is also a cracker, with the same 10ft swell, 13-second period, and clean cross-offshore winds. Another solid session for the brave.
Before that, the morning of Friday, the 28th of August is worth a mention. It’s a bit smaller at 7ft, also from the NW with an 11-second period, but the wind is a stronger 16 mph cross-offshore. That’s going to be a bit bumpy, but still manageable for experts. The energy is still very strong (1080).
So, the call is simple: suffer through the small stuff for the first ten days, and then point your car towards Rodiles for that last weekend of August. The Saturday morning is the absolute pick.
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.
