Alright, Rusty here, let's have a look at what's on the table for Los Cocos over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it’s looking pretty grim for the vast majority of this forecast. We’re staring down a long, dry spell of poor surf conditions that stretches from the 3rd of July all the way through to the morning of the 16th of July. That’s nearly two weeks of onshore crud and choppy, messy lines. The water temperature is sitting at 80°F which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won't freeze while you're staring at the flatness.
The only real window of hope, the one true standout in this whole mess, is the morning of Thursday, the 16th of July. Early that day, the wind looks like it’ll swing around to a light cross-offshore breeze, and the wave comment says we might finally get some clean surf. The swell will be 5ft from the ENE with a period of 7 seconds, which is short-period windswell. The combined energy is moderate at 215. It won't be a classic, but after all the junk we’re about to wade through, a clean 5ft wave is going to feel like a gift. It’s an intermediate-friendly size, so most of you should have a crack. Keep an eye on the crowds at Los Cocos, 'cause if this little window comes together, the lineup might get a bit busy for a spot that can be sometimes crowded.
Before that, we’ve got a few sessions that are technically surfable but nothing to write home about. Back on Friday the 3rd of July, there was a glassy afternoon with ankle-to-knee high 3ft swell from the ENE, energy was weak at 78, honestly more of a log day than anything exciting. A similar flat, glassy spell hit on Monday the 6th of July morning with 4ft, but again, the conditions were described as very ordinary. After the 16th, that little clean window closes fast, and we’re back to cross-shore junk through the 17th and 18th.
So, the call is simple: don’t get your hopes up for this whole stretch. The one morning to pencil in – and it's a long-range call so treat it as promising but not locked in – is the morning of the 16th. Otherwise, leave the boards in the car and wait for the next system to come through.
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.
Los Cocos is 0 km (0 miles) from Caraballeda. If you plan a holiday in Caracas, look for hotels and other accommodation in Caraballeda. Caraballeda has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
