The Lowdown
Alright, grab your spring suit, let's get into it. I’m looking at this long-range forecast for La Cicer, and I’ve gotta be straight with you – it’s a bit of a tough stretch for paddle surfing.
The main issue is the wind. For the next week and a half, it’s mostly coming from the north-northwest. For La Cicer, that’s a direct offshore wind, which is normally what you’d want, but the problem is it’s just too strong. We’re looking at 12 to 19 mph winds for most of that first week, which is going to hold the waves down and mess up the surface, even if the swell height looks okay on paper. The wave energy reading isn’t terrible – we see moderate readings like 471 to 582 during the middle of the week – but the overall conditions are rated as poor because of that pummelling wind.
Honestly, the standout window doesn't really show up until way down the line. If you can hold out, take a look at Monday the 22nd of September. That morning has the most potential, though it’s still a bit of a trade-off. You’ll have a 3ft swell from the NNW with a very long period of 15 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy, showing a reading of 590 – solid moderate energy for that size. The catch is a light cross-shore wind from the NE creating small wind ripples, but the report calls it "clean" which is promising. That long period will bring some nice, lined-up walls, but be aware it might break a little straight on the beach. It's a marginal call for quality, but in this forecast, it’s the closest thing to a winner we’ve got.
Before that, Saturday morning the 20th is worth a look if you're desperate. It's got a bit of size at 5ft from the north with a 9-second period and light cross-onshore winds. The wave energy is 385, so it's not dead, but it’s marginal and the cross-onshore will keep it a bit lumpy.
For the rest of the 16 days, it’s a tough watch. There are periods of weak energy, like the 82 on Wednesday the 16th, and the wind is rarely kind. From the 25th onwards, the swell drops right off into the 1ft to 2ft range, so you can pretty much park the board for the final weekend of the month. It’s a long gap with nothing to get excited about.
So, in summary, don’t expect much for the next week. Mark the morning of Monday the 22nd on your calendar as the only real standout – it’s promising but keep your expectations realistic. Surf-wise, things look pretty scrappy for a while.

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.
