Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what’s headed our way for this stretch.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a tough run ahead. We’ve got a long dry spell before anything really worth paddling out for shows up. For the first few days, it’s all cross-shore breeze, short-period slop, and the conditions are just plain ugly. From Tuesday the 7th right through until early Thursday the 10th, there’s nothing doing. The water's sitting at a warm 80°, which is pretty much spot-on average for this time of year.
The first real glimmer comes on Thursday morning, the 9th. At Los Cocos, we finally get a shift. Winds go cross-offshore from the ESE at 9 mph, which will clean things right up. Swell bumps to 5 ft from the ENE with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at (219), and it’s labeled as clean. This is the best of a quiet bunch, but honestly, with an intermediate rating and only a 2 out of 10 score, it’s nothing to write home about. Still, it’s a window.
After that, the wind swings back to cross-shore and the swell stays messy. Periods stay short (7-8 seconds), energy drops, and the conditions turn poor again. There’s a brief stretch around Tuesday the 21st where the swell holds around 5-5 ft from the ENE, with light winds, but it’s still only marginal at best. For a beach/jetty setup like Los Cocos, these short-period, cross-shore days just won’t deliver.
If you're desperate, keep an eye on that Thursday morning the 9th. Otherwise, it’s a pretty bleak outlook. There’s nothing here for beginners to get excited about, and even intermediates will be scratching for something rideable.
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.
