Ris surf guide

Ris is a beach located near the popular summer resort of Noja. It's a decent spot for surfers looking for some fun waves, but keep in mind that it can get pretty busy, especially on weekends and during the summer months when beachgoers come in droves. You'll find a mix of locals and visitors here, so be prepared for some localism. Parking is usually fine, but it can be tricky during the peak season.

The surf at Ris is mainly a beach break that works best with a northwest swell. It's suitable for intermediate surfers, handling swell sizes from about 2ft (0.6m) up. You can expect both left and right waves, which can sometimes have hollow sections, making for interesting rides. The best conditions typically happen with southwest winds, and the tides can be low, mid, or high. Overall, it’s moderately consistent, so you might want to check the forecasts before heading out.

On top of the surf, Ris has good beach facilities and is close to a campsite if you want to stay nearby. Just remember to keep an eye on the crowd, especially in summer, and be respectful of the locals. It’s a spot that can work for a fun day of surfing if you catch it right!

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"
