Second text (imperial units):
Well, I’ll be straight with you – it’s a flat spell and a half. The whole 16-day window is looking pretty grim, and there’s no real surf to get excited about. We’re kicking off with a long stretch of nothing worthwhile. The first glimmer of anything close to rideable is on the 20th of July, and even then it’s shaky.
The only spot in the game is Cabo Lastres (Spain) , a point break that needs a decent NW swell to work. The problem is, the swell is just too small and weak for the first two weeks. The combined wave energy is barely registering – mostly under 100 (53 to 88) – which is feeble. The swell height is sitting at a pathetic 1ft to 2ft with periods all over the place, mostly short and weak. For a point break, that’s just not enough push.
The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing strange there.
The only days that might offer a paddle are around the 20th and 21st of July. On the 20th, Monday afternoon, we see a little bump of 3ft from the north with a 6-second period. The combined energy climbs to 70 – still weak but at least it’s something. The 21st has similar 3ft north swell, but the wind swings to a cross W at 12 mph, which will mess up the surface. The 22nd has a bit of size – 3ft – but with a 16 mph cross wind and rain showers, it’s going to be a choppy mess.
This is a stretch of mostly poor surf, with maybe a few knee-high, bumpy options on the 20th and 21st. For a point break that needs a clean NW groundswell, this is a tough run. Unless you’re desperate for a splash, the board can stay in the car.

Information about the Cabo Lastres Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Cabo Lastres provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Cabo Lastres can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Cabo Lastres 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 (Cabo Lastres) 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 Cabo Lastres 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.
Cabo Lastres is 30 km (19 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.
