The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming down the line for El Lloret.
First off, you won’t wanna rush down there for a while. We’ve got a real rough patch to start. For over a week, from today right through to the end of July, it’s a write-off. Moderate onshore winds are gonna tear into a short-period, weak NNE swell. We’re talking windblown, choppy messes with poor surf conditions across the board. There’s a small window on the morning of Sunday, August 2nd where the wind swings cross-offshore and it cleans up a bit, but it’s only tiny 4ft swell with weak energy – just small and ordinary. That’s the only breath of relief in an otherwise long, flat, messy gap.
The real interest, and the only true standout worth circling, shows up around the second week of August. From August 9th we finally see some oomph in the water. The swell from the NNE builds to 8ft on Sunday morning and keeps climbing, hitting 10ft by Monday, August 10th. The combined swell energy ramps right up over a thousand, so there’s proper power in the water. But here’s the catch – the wind stays stubbornly onshore from the north at 15 mph for both days. That’ll keep conditions rough and bumpy, so it’s not gonna be classic. August 9th is still in the expert realm heading into Sunday, and Monday’s 10ft swell is strictly for the experienced crew only. This is heavy, onshore, charging territory.
El Lloret is a reef break, which can handle that extra pull when the swell gets big, but it’s a bit exposed to the wind out there. Crowds are often an issue here, and it’s consistent normally, but the choppy onshore wind will put off all but the hardcore. Still, if you're an expert just looking to get out in some real size after the drought, that August 9th and 10th is your only ticket in this outlook – but you’ll be trading clean waves for raw power.
Water temp is sitting at 73°F, which is about average for this time of year, so nothing freaky there.
In short, it’s a tough read. A lot of waiting, and then a blast of big but messy swell.

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.
