The Lowdown

Right then, let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it’s a bit of a flat spell we’re wading through. The whole 16-day window is pretty much a write-off, I’m afraid. There’s no decent surf on offer at all. Every single day is marked by poor surf conditions, so we’re looking at a long stretch of nothing to get excited about.

Kicking off from Sunday the 23rd of August, it’s all the same story. The only break that’s even on the radar is Los Cocos (Los-Cocos), a beach and jetty setup. The water temperature is sitting at 81°F, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The swell is tiny, around 2 ft on Sunday afternoon, and it barely gets better. It’s weak, short-period windswell from the ENE, with a combined energy of only 58 – that’s next to nothing. The wind is all over the place, mostly cross-shore, but on Monday morning the 24th, we get a moment of glassy conditions… but it’s on a 2 ft swell, so it’s just a pretty, flat ocean. A real tease.

As we move into the following week, the swell height does creep up a bit, hitting 5 ft on Sunday the 30th of August morning and again on Friday the 4th of September morning, with energy readings getting into the 200s (207 and 219 respectively). But it’s still all crossed-up windswell with a period of only 7 seconds. That short period means the waves are weak and crumbly, and with the persistent cross-shore winds, the surface is always chopped up. It just looks like a messy, onshore mess. Honestly, the whole setup at Los Cocos with that consistent cross-shore breeze and poor quality is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing right now.

The pattern doesn't shift. It’s the same grim outlook all the way through to Monday the 7th of September. We’re talking about a solid 16 days with no genuine surfable waves. For this area, a blank run like this isn’t unheard of, so don’t throw your board in the shed just yet. Forecasts can always change, but as it stands, leave the wax in the wrapper.

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.
