The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: this stretch of the forecast is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with nothing to ride for the first week and a half, and even when the numbers start creeping up, it’s still a struggle.
The water at Largos is sitting at 70°F which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year, so you’ll be reaching for the steamer if you do paddle out.
From the start of the outlook, right through until the 18th of August, it’s a blank run. Day after day of "poor surf conditions" with zero combined swell energy. The swell is just not showing up. There’s a few glassy mornings here and there, but without any waves, that glassy surface is just a tease. It’s a frustrating stretch, and for a spot that’s already inconsistent, this is a real quiet period.
We finally see a tiny pulse on the 18th of August, Tuesday afternoon. The swell direction is SW, but it’s a pathetic 1.0ft at a 3-second period. That’s a sloppy, short-period windswell, and the combined energy is only 1 (one). The wind is a cross-on from the S, so the surface will be messy. Not worth the paddle.
The only real glimmer comes on the 19th of August, Wednesday morning. We get a 2ft swell from the E at a 5-second period, with a combined energy of 13. It’s still tiny and weak, but the wind is glassy from the ENE. That’s clean. Largos is a reef, and with no swell direction matching its optimum from the ESE, it’s going to be a dribbly, knee-high affair. It’s the best on offer, but that’s not saying much. The afternoon turns onshore, ruining it.
After that, it fades back to nothing. A few 0.3ft and 0.7ft days with next to no energy. The last day we see, the 21st of August, Friday morning, is dead calm and glassy, but with just 0.3ft of E swell and a combined energy of 1, it’s a lake.
Honestly, if you’re hanging for a surf, the 19th morning is the only window, and even then, it’s a beginner-longboard special. For anything else, this setup is more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer. The forecasts can always change, but right now, this is a long wait.
Rusty.

Information about the Largos Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Largos provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Largos can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Largos 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 (Largos) 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 Largos 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.
Largos is 12 km (7 miles) from the city of Marbella. If you plan a holiday in Andalucia, look for hotels and other accommodation in Marbella. Marbella has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
