The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. It’s a bit of a strange one we’ve got lining up. The surf is going to be there, no doubt, but it’s going to be a real test of patience. There’s a long stretch of poor surf conditions on the cards for the next couple of weeks. We’re looking at a bit of a gap before there’s anything even worth mentioning, so don’t go rinsing your wetsuit just yet. The size will be there, but the quality is just not lining up for a good while.
The first real chance of anything halfway decent doesn’t roll around until Saturday the 8th. The swell is building, but the wind is going to be a problem, with a cross-onshore breeze making it choppy and messy. It’s just not going to be a fun one.
We need to wait until the middle of the second week for the standout period. The real window to keep an eye on starts around Thursday the 13th and runs through the weekend. The wind looks a little better, and the swell holds in. It won't be perfect, but it will be the best we've got. The pick of the entire run is looking like Friday the 14th and Saturday the 15th. The swell is up and the period is a bit better, so there’s some push to it. You're looking at waves in the 6-7 ft range. It’s not a classic, but it’s the only time the stars kind of align.
I’ll be honest, if you’re a beginner, Saturday the 15th is one to skip. The swell is pushing 7 ft, which is too much for anyone still finding their feet. That one is for the experienced crew only.
So, there you have it. The outlook is underwhelming for a while, but there’s a couple of days in the second week that could just about save it. Keep the faith, check back, and hopefully, the ocean changes its mind.
Rusty, out.

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.
