The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for this stretch at Los Cocos.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you—this isn’t the most inspiring 16-day run I’ve seen. The swell is on the small side for most of it and the wind is stuck in a cross or cross-onshore pattern, which means we’re not looking at clean, groomed waves. The water temp here is sittin’ around 81°, which is pretty much what you’d expect for this time of year, nothing wild.
We’ve got a long gap with no real recommendations. From Monday 24th August right through to Saturday 30th August, it’s pretty much all “poor surf conditions.” Swells are small, wavering between 2ft and 4ft, with periods mostly around 6 to 7 seconds—that’s short-period, weak windswell. The combined energy is weak to moderate at best. The wind is constantly cross, so it’s a bit bumpy and lacks any punch. Not the place to be.
Sunday 30th August afternoon finally shows a tiny bit of life. It’s still marginal, but the swell pushes to 5ft from the NE with a 7-second period, and the energy climbs to 248—still moderate. It’s cross-shore wind, so not perfect, but you might find a few grovelly ones if you’re desperate.
Now, if you can wait, the real standout—though still not a world-beater—looks like Monday 7th September. That morning and afternoon both show 5ft swell from ENE with an 8-second period. The energy jumps to 316 and 324, which is moderate but on the higher end for this stretch. The wind is still cross-shore, but lighter in the afternoon, just 6 mph. That’s your best chance for some ok waves, but keep your expectations in check—it’s still a beach/jetty setup, so it won’t be perfect.
Tuesday 8th September is similar but a notch smaller, 5ft with moderate energy. Still marginal, still cross-shore wind.
Honestly, if you’re dying for a wave, aim for the 7th of September. None of this is firing, but that’s the highlight. The rest is a lot of small, chopped-out days. This break is “fairly consistent” but with conditions like this, it’s a tough watch.
Rusty.

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.
