The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window for Rodiles is a tough one. The whole stretch is pretty quiet, so don’t get your hopes up for anything firing. The water is sitting at 71°, which is a touch warmer than the average for this time of year, so that’s one small win.
We’re looking at a long, dry spell with no real action until Sunday the 9th of August. For the first few days, the swell is tiny and the wind is mostly cross-onshore, keeping things pretty flat and messy. You’ll be waiting a good four days for anything even worth mentioning.
That Sunday morning, the 9th, we finally see a bump. The swell picks up to 2ft from the NNW, with a period of 10 seconds and moderate combined energy (101). The wind is a clean cross-offshore from the WNW, so the river mouth could be rideable, but the conditions are still just ordinary. It’s not a standout, just a small window of hope.
Then we get another gap. The next time you might want to paddle out is on Tuesday morning, the 18th of August. The swell is 3ft from the NW, with a period of 8 seconds, and the energy is moderate (172). The wind is glassy – dead calm – which is a major positive for clean waves. The catch is, this is a river break, and with a short period swell like that, it’s going to be a bit crumbly and inconsistent. It’s the best of a quiet bunch, but it’s not a classic.
The closest thing to a standout is that Tuesday morning, the 18th, at Rodiles. The glassy conditions are the real draw here, but don’t expect any power. It’s a session for the die-hards on a longboard, not a day for the crowds. If you’re an expert looking for a clean, small wave, you might get a few.
The rest of the forecast is a write-off for surfing. The swell stays small, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, making for choppy, poor conditions. The only real excitement is on the afternoon of the 18th, when the swell jumps to 5ft from the N, but with a strong onshore wind of 12 mph, it’s a blown-out mess. That setup would be more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
So, in a nutshell, we’ve got a long wait, a few small, clean windows, and a whole lot of flat. It’s not the best run for this area, but it’s not the worst either. You just have to be patient. Keep watching the charts.
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.
