The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it.
Well, folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you: the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a paddle. We've got a stretch coming up that's going to test your patience.
The entire 16-day window is a tough one. Right from Thursday the 13th of August, through to Friday the 28th, every single wave is getting hammered by onshore wind. The only break we’ve got to look at is El Lloret, a reef setup that’s fairly exposed to the swell. But that doesn’t matter much when the wind is blowing right onto it.
The pattern is the same, day after day. Winds are coming out of the NNE, and for a break that wants the swell from the NNW, this is bad news. The onshore breeze is going to chop everything up. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
For the first week, from the 13th through to the 22nd, the swell hangs around the 4ft to 6ft range. The period is short, mostly 6 to 8 seconds, which means weak, junk windswell. The combined energy is moderate, hitting 373 on the Saturday the 15th, but it's all messy. The waves there will be blown out and poor quality. Honestly, the conditions look so rough for a paddle that a kite surfer would have a much better time.
Heading into the second week, from Sunday the 24th through to the end of the month, the swell drops away. Heights fade from 4ft down to 1ft. The period finally climbs a bit, hitting 11 seconds on the 27th, which is a long-period groundswell, but with only 2ft of height and onshore wind, it’s just not enough. The energy drops into the low, weak range (100 to 162).
Look, I hate to say it, but there is no standout, no hidden gem, no window of clean surf here. Every single session in the report says "poor surf conditions." This is one of those blanks. It's not unusual for the area when the wind sets in like this. We just have to wear it. Forecasts can always change, but for now, maybe tune up the kite gear or wax up the longboard for a flat day paddle.
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.

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.
