Alright, Rusty here again, but this time in feet and knots. Let’s talk about El Lloret.
Honestly, the outlook is pretty bleak for the next couple of weeks. This reef break is normally consistent, but the wind and swell just aren’t cooperating. There’s a big gap of no good surf from Thursday the 9th right through to Monday the 20th. Nearly every session has onshore wind and poor conditions.
We get a little hope on Sunday the 12th with a groundswell from the NNW, chest-high at 3ft to 4ft, and a 11-second period. That’s good shape, but the wind is blowing onshore at 9 to 12 mph, so the surface will be messy.
The biggest ocean energy shows up from Saturday the 18th to Friday the 24th. We’re talking 6ft to 7ft waves from the NNE with 7 to 8-second periods. The combined energy is strong, between 434 and 534 – that’s a lot of water moving. But again, the wind is onshore, gusting 9 to 16 mph. That size is expert-only territory when it’s choppy.
If there’s a single window to chance it, it’s Tuesday the 21st morning. The wind drops to a light onshore breeze (6 mph), the swell is 5ft from the NNE with a 7-second period, and the rating is marginal. It’s not good, but it’s the least bad option.
There’s no standout for beginners. Anything over 5ft is too much, and once it hits 7ft on the 18th, it’s for experienced crew only. The water temp is about 72°F, which is pretty normal for July, so no need for a thick suit.
Bottom line: if you’re a kitesurfer, this setup might look interesting with all that onshore wind and swell. For a paddle surfer, it’s a tough two weeks.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
