The Lowdown

Alright folks, it’s a bleak one out there for the next couple weeks. We’ve got a whole lot of northerly wind and weak, short-period swell on the menu, and it’s going to keep the surf pretty damned ugly.

Honestly, there’s nothing in this entire 16-day window that gets the heart pumping. We’re staring down a long stretch of poor surf, and the first real chance of anything decent doesn't roll in until the 24th of August. That’s a solid nine-day gap from the start of this forecast with zip on offer. A tough stretch, for sure.

Here’s the lowdown for the south coast at La Cicer (Gran Canaria). The water is running a touch warmer than average for this time of year, coming in at 75°. Not a big deal, but worth a mention.

The main problem is the direction of everything. The swell is coming in from the NNE for the foreseeable future, which is all wrong for this spot. It’s cross-on or just plain onshore, and the period is short, mostly between 7 and 9 seconds. Even when the swell is a little taller, it’s got no guts to it. The energy is all over the place, but mostly on the weak to moderate side. We're looking at readings like 332 and 304 on the 15th, but with that wind and short period, it’s just mush. The 17th and 18th have a bit lighter winds, but the swell is tiny and weak, with energy in the 150-200 range. It’ll be clean-ish but utterly gutless.

We get a bit of a bump in size on the 22nd and 23rd, with wave heights up to 6ft. But again, it’s from the NNE with a cross-on wind and a short period. It’ll be lumpy, bumpy, and a pain to surf. The energy is moderate, around 300, but it won't translate into quality. It’s just a bigger, messier version of the same problem.

Now, the 24th of August is the one standout date, but it’s got a big caveat. The swell jumps to 7ft with an energy reading of 660, so it’s got some muscle. But it’s still from the NNE, and the period is only 9 seconds. For a spot like La Cicer, which is fairly exposed anyway, that means it’s going to be a raw, powerful, and likely closing-out mess. The wind is cross-on from the NNE at 16 mph. This is not a beginner wave. At that size, it's strictly for the experienced crew, and even they will be in for a fight. It’ll be big and powerful, but I doubt it’ll be clean. With that wind and swell direction, I’d say it’s shaping up to be a better day for the kite surfers than for us. After that, it slowly fades away. The 27th through the 29th see the swell drop back under 5ft, but the wind stays problematic, and the energy drops off.

So, the long and the short of it is this: we’ve got a long, blank patch with no real standouts. The most interesting period is around the 24th, but it’s still a week and a half away and comes with a whole lot of wrong-direction wind and swell. Don’t get your hopes up. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d be finding something else to do.

Information about the La Cicer Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for La Cicer provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Cicer can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Cicer 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 (La Cicer) 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 La Cicer 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.

La Cicer 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.
