The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's have a look at what's cookin'.
Honestly, mate, this 16-day stretch is a bit of a rough patch for us at La Cicer. We don't have one single standout session in the whole outlook. The wind is almost never on our side, keeping things messy and choppy. Right off the bat, the water temperature is sitting about average for this time of year, which is fine, but that's where the good news ends.
We start off on Thursday, 30 July, and it's already a struggle. Swell is coming in at 5 ft to 6 ft from the NNE with a short period of 7 seconds, producing moderate wave energy (242-277). Problem is, we've got a moderate cross-onshore breeze that's got the surface looking chopped up and poor. That pattern sticks with us right through Friday and into the weekend of 1 and 2 August. The swell holds around 4 ft to 5 ft, but that wind stays cross-onshore or directly onshore, making it a write-off for a decent paddle.
Moving into Monday, 3 August, the swell picks up a bit to 6 ft from the NNE, and the energy bumps up to 341 (moderate), with a light breeze predicted for the morning. Still, the wind is onshore, so it's not going to be the clean day we're after. This continues through the first week; even as the swell dips slightly around 3 ft to 4 ft on 6 and 7 August, the cross-onshore wind keeps the surface bumpy.
Now, there is a little pulse of energy that shows up around Tuesday, 11 August. Swell builds to 6 ft from the NNE with period at 7 seconds, and the energy jumps to 387-357 (moderate). By Wednesday, 12 August, it hits 7 ft - that's getting into expert territory for the size - with energy at 547 (moderate to strong). But again, the wind stays cross-onshore at 12 mph, so those waves are going to be lumpy and hard to enjoy. This isn't a spot for beginners at that size anyway, but the quality just isn't there for anyone.
By the tail end of the outlook, around 14 August, we've still got 6 ft to 7 ft swell, but it's onshore or cross-onshore and the energy is dropping. Not a single session in the entire 16 days scores above a zero for surf quality. We're looking at a long, blank run here. For this area, it happens - forecasts can change, so don't lose hope completely, but right now, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Keep the board waxed and wait for the next one.

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.
