The Lowdown
Alright, folks. Rusty here with a look at the next couple of weeks.
We’re kickin’ off with a whole lot of nothin’ for Rodiles. From Tuesday the 25th right through to the end of Thursday the 27th, it’s just flat, tiny dribble – you’re lookin’ at a three-day dry spell where the swell is too weak to bother with. You could leave the board in the car and save the gas.
Then things start to flicker to life. Friday morning the 28th is the first real standout, and it’s a big one. The swell jumps to a solid 8ft from the northwest, a 10-second period, and we’ve got clean, cross-off winds. The energy is pumping – well into a moderate range (986). This is an expert-heavy setup, though. At that size on a river mouth, it’s gonna be powerful and hollow, so only the sharpest crew should be out. The afternoon holds at 7ft but the wind picks up, so the morning is your window.
Saturday the 29th and Sunday the 30th are a bit of a comedown – smaller, short-period swell in the 3ft to 4ft range with glassy mornings. It’s surfable, but there’s no punch to it, and the energy dips way down.
The real golden ticket lands way out there, on Monday the 8th of September. Tuesday morning the 8th is light, with 8ft of long-period groundswell from the northwest. The period sits at a very long 14 seconds – that’s a proper ocean swell, full of grunt and shape. Wind is almost glassy, cross-off, and clean. You’re looking at a very strong wave energy reading (2961). This is premium, experienced surfer territory. It’s still a week and a half out, so treat it as *promising* but not locked in. The Monday the 7th beforehand also shows a weird, ultra-long 22-second period, but strong wind keeps it messy.
Crowds at Rodiles can be heavy when it’s good, so if you’re aiming for that Tuesday the 8th window, get in the water early.
Right now, Friday morning the 28th is the best sure bet for a short-term blast, and that Monday/Tuesday window around the 8th-9th of September is the one to keep your eye on. For everything else, it’s a waiting game.
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.
