The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one for El Lloret. We're looking at a pretty bleak 16-day window ahead, so don't get your hopes up.
The first real chance at anything rideable doesn't show up until Monday the 14th of September, and even then it's a very small window. The whole first week is a write-off: onshore winds, short-period windswell, and a lot of "poor surf conditions" in the forecast. The water temp is sitting at 75°, which is about average for this time of year, so that's one thing you won't have to worry about.
Let's start with the lone highlight. On Monday the 14th, early morning, El Lloret (reef) will see a glassy spell with light winds from the NE. The swell drops right down to 2ft from the NNW, but it's got some real grunt with a period of 13 seconds – that's a proper groundswell. The combined energy is moderate (266). The problem is it's tiny, and the direction is cross-shore, but that glassy surface will be the cleanest we see. It's a last-ditch, go-early-or-go-home kind of session. By the afternoon the wind swings onshore and it's messy again.
The rest of the forecast is a real grind. From Tuesday the 15th right through to Wednesday the 23rd of September, it's a relentless parade of onshore and cross-onshore winds, with the swell flickering between 2ft and 4ft. The periods are short and weak, with combined energy readings mostly in the low 100s to 200s – that's weak wave energy. The best of that bad bunch is maybe the morning of the 19th of September with a 3ft swell from the NNE, period 8 seconds, and a gentler wind, but it's still onshore, so it's a messy, choppy affair. Nothing is worth getting excited about.
Honestly, for a spot that's "fairly exposed" to the swell, this is a long dry spell. If you're desperate for a paddle, that Monday morning is your only chance, but it's a real gamble. For anything else, just wait for the next forecast update.
Rusty.

Information about the El Lloret Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for El Lloret provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at El Lloret can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our El Lloret 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 (El Lloret) 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 El Lloret 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.
El Lloret is 5 km (3 miles) from Las Palmas. If you plan a holiday in Gran Canaria, look for hotels and other accommodation in Las Palmas. Las Palmas has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
