The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with you – the next 16 days at Los Cocos are lookin’ pretty grim. This beach/jetty spot’s gonna be a frustrating watch, not a place to paddle out.

Right from the start, through Tuesday the 1st of September and well into the second week, we’re stuck with a stubborn easterly wind blowing straight across the water. That means constant cross-shore chop and messy, bumpy conditions. The swell’s there, but it’s weak and blown out. We see a combined wave energy that peaks at around 294 (moderate energy) on Monday the 7th and again on Thursday the 11th with 285, with some 5 ft to 6 ft of easterly swell, but it’s short-period stuff – just 7 to 8 seconds. That’s windswell, not groundswell. It’ll be shifty, weak, and all chopped up by the wind. Not worth paddling out for.

For the whole outlook, there’s not a single good window. The water temp’s about average for this time of year, nothing to get excited about. The wind just doesn’t swing offshore (the ideal direction is NNE) – it stays cross from the east the whole run. The surf quality is marked as poor across all sessions. It’s an eight-day stretch then another eight-day stretch with no recommendations. From the 1st to the 16th of September, you’re met with either “some clouds” or “risk tstorm” and windy, cross conditions.

If you were desperate, the best of a bad bunch would be around Monday the 7th and Thursday the 11th when the swell bumps up to 5 ft (ENE). But even then, the wind’s a moderate cross-shore at 12 mph, turning the surf into a cross-chop. That’s a beach-and-jetty setup, and honestly, with that wind and swell, it looks more interesting for the kite crew than for paddle surfing.

Bottom line: leave the board in the van. This stretch is a write-off. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing on offer.

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.
