The Lowdown
Alright, let's talk Los Cocos. It’s a beach and jetty spot, open to the north-northeast, and you really want swell from the north-northeast to make it fire. The water's about 80°, which is normal for this time of year.
It's a rough stretch, mate. The first few days are weak and messy. Sunday 26 July kicks off with a 0.9m (3ft) northeast swell but it’s short period at 7 seconds, and the wind is a light 6 mph easterly, cross-off in the morning then going cross. The energy is weak (75). It’s surfable but just ordinary. After that, it’s a long run of poor surf. The swell stays small and the wind is always from the east, so it’s cross-shore all the way. By Thursday 30 July the swell picks up to about 1.5m to 1.6m (5ft) from the east-northeast, with moderate energy (250-306), but that 9 mph easterly wind keeps it choppy. The reports are all poor surf conditions right through to 10 August.
There's no real standout. The best chance is probably the morning of 31 July with 1.6m (5ft) and an 8-second period (moderate energy at 277), but the cross-shore wind is still there. The direction is east-northeast, not the ideal north-northeast, so it’s not hitting the break perfectly. That long stretch of poor surf is pretty normal for the area.
Honestly, with that constant cross-shore wind and chop, the conditions look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.

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.
