The Lowdown
Alright, listen up. I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – the surf outlook for Cabo Lastres is looking bleak. For the next week and a half, we’re staring at a whole lot of nothing. The swell is tiny, the period is short, and the wind is just messing everything up. It’s the kind of forecast that makes you want to take up golf.
The water is a toasty 72°, which is about 4° warmer than it should be – that’s a big deal, so you can ditch the booties. The only window that even looks remotely rideable is the morning of Monday, August 18th. We get a slight bump to 4ft from the NW, with a 9-second period. The energy is moderate (217), and most importantly, it’s glassy. That’ll be your one chance to get a few clean, albeit small, waves. There’s another similar pulse on the 20th, but the wind is cross-shore, so it’ll be choppier.
Honestly, if you’re an expert, maybe you’ll find something on the 18th. But for everyone else, this is a 16-day stretch to do some yard work. It’s a real desert out there.

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.
