Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up for us.
Honestly, it’s a grim start. We’re looking at a long dry spell with no real surf on offer. From now until around the 16th of July, it’s pretty much a write-off. The first week and a bit is full of small, weak, short-period windswell—mostly from the north—with onshore or cross-onshore winds making a mess of things. The water temp is sitting at 72°, which is pretty standard for this time of year, so no surprises there.
We finally see a pulse of proper energy arriving around Friday the 17th of July. The swell starts to build, with heights pushing 6 ft on Friday morning from the NNE, and the combined energy jumps up to 230 (moderate wave energy). By Saturday the 18th of July, it gets a bit more serious, with 7 ft to 7 ft NNE swell and energy readings in the 430 to 472 range. The wind is still blowing onshore from the NNW at 16 mph, so it won't be glassy, but it's not a total loss. That’s going to be too big for beginners, but for the experienced crew, there’s some grunt.
The standout window looks like Sunday the 19th of July through Tuesday the 21st of July. Swell holds around 7 ft to 7 ft from the NNE, and the energy is proper strong, hitting 727 (strong wave energy) on the 23rd. The catch? That persistent cross-onshore wind from the north or NNE at 12 to 16 mph. At La Cicer (Spain), a mostly exposed beach setup, that wind direction is going to chop things up.
Because of that wind and the beach-break nature, this stretch is honestly looking more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The waves are there, but the quality will be poor for a surfer wanting clean lines.
So, if you’re desperate, keep an eye on that window around the 19th to the 23rd of July, but don’t expect perfection. The long-range stuff is promising but less certain. For now, it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.

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.
