Alright mates, Rusty here. Let me tell you about the surf coming up. It’s a tough one.
The outlook starts on Monday, July 13th, and we’re looking at a long, dry spell. The waves are showing up, between about 2ft and 5ft, mainly from the ENE, but that’s all the good news there is. The energy in the water is weak to moderate, never really getting up there. The killer is the wind. It’s a constant, annoying cross-shore from the east, blowing 9 to 12 mph, just ruining everything. This keeps the surf in a "poor" state – small, bumpy lines that are messy. Even when the swell gets a little bigger, like on Tuesday, July 14th with some 5ft waves, that cross-wind just tears it up.
This pattern is stuck for more than a week. From July 13th all the way to about July 26th, it’s the same thing. The combined energy stays low. That short, 7-second period from the ENE means the waves are weak and gutless. On Wednesday, July 22nd, the swell drops right down to 4ft, and it doesn’t really wake up. It’s a long, frustrating stretch with no real standout session.
Now, there’s a little glimmer of hope at the very end. On July 28th, a Tuesday, there’s a pulse. The swell bumps up to 5ft from the ENE, with a combined energy of 204. But even then, it’s the same story – a moderate east cross-shore wind at 12 mph. The period is still short at 7 seconds. It’s a slight improvement, but nothing to get excited about.
The only break we have is Los Cocos. It’s a beach/jetty setup that’s fairly consistent, but it’s fully exposed to that nagging easterly wind. This whole stretch is a real bummer. The poor wind and small, short-period swell aren't good for paddling. If you’re into kitesurfing, that cross-shore wind and the choppy water might be alright, but for a proper surf, it’s a no-go.
Rusty, signing off.

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