The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on offer for Los Cocos.
It’s a tough start to the outlook, I’m not gonna lie. We’ve got a solid 16 days of forecast, but it’s a real struggle to find anything clean. The first few days are a write-off with a persistent easterly breeze creating cross-chop, and the swell just isn’t packing any punch. The combined energy from Tuesday 28th July is a weak 35 (weak energy), and it barely gets better. We’re looking at a gap of nearly a week of poor surf conditions before we see anything with a pulse.
The best bet in this whole window is the early session on Saturday 1st August. The morning shows a glassy wind state – that’s a huge deal for this spot. It’s a gentle offshore from the ESE at just 3 mph, which will make the surface clean. The swell is a modest 5 ft from ENE with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is 185 (moderate wave energy). The water temp is sitting at 81°, which is about average for the time of year. It’s surfable, but very ordinary. Don’t expect anything special, just a few clean lines if you’re keen.
After that Saturday morning window, the wind swings back to a cross-shore and it’s back to poor surf and chop. There’s a little flicker on Thursday 6th August morning with a light cross-offshore breeze and a 4 ft ENE swell, which gives a clean look, but the energy is still low and the waves are just ordinary. The rest of the period is dominated by moderate easterly winds and cross-chop, keeping things messy. Even with the swell bumping up to 6 ft and 6 ft on a few days, the constant cross-wind kills the quality.
Because the wind is so persistent and the break is a beach/jetty setup, honestly, this stretch looks more appealing for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The consistent cross-shore wind is just not our friend.
The only real standout, and I use that term loosely, is that Saturday 1st August morning glass-off. It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the only time the conditions will be clean enough to make it worth paddling out. Get there early if you’re desperate.
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.
