The Lowdown
G'day, I'm Rusty, and I've got the goods on what's happening for the next couple of weeks. Let's be real, it's a pretty grim stretch ahead for El Lloret. The whole 16-day window is looking like a write-off, so don't be holding your breath for a decent wave. The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year, nothing to report there.
The outlook kicks off with nothing. From Friday 21st of August, right through to Sunday 23rd, the surf is a total mess. The wind is hammering onshore, and the swell is tiny and weak – the combined energy is only around 175 (weak) on Friday, dropping to 143 (weak) on Saturday. It's all short-period, messy windswell, and the conditions are just plain poor. Sunday afternoon sees a bit of a spike in energy to 433 (moderate) with a long period swell of 15s, but it's still onshore wind and the wave comment is "poor surf conditions". It's a tease.
Monday 24th of August is the closest we get to anything ridable, but it's still a struggle. The morning has a 6 ft swell from the NNW with a 12s period, and the combined energy jumps to 793 (moderate). The wind is light and onshore, but the forecast is only "marginal" – the tide or something is just not cooperating. It's not a day to get excited about.
The rest of the run is a write-off. From Tuesday 25th through to Saturday 5th of September, it's a relentless parade of onshore wind, weak to moderate energy (mostly in the 100-600 range), and short-period, poorly shaped swell. The swell height does build, hitting 8 ft on Saturday 29th of August, but with onshore wind and a short period of 8s, it's a total mess – only for the brave and the experienced. The energy is high (954 – moderate), but the quality is zero. This setup, with the strong wind and beach-reef nature, actually looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Honestly, there's no standout. There are no good surf options in this 16-day window. It's a blank run, and for this area, that's not unusual. The forecasts can change, but right now, just leave the board in the shed.
Rusty.

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.
