The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at the local stretch over the next couple of weeks.

It’s a tough outlook for the Cocos area. The combined swell energy is weak to moderate for most of the period, sitting around 91 to 155 in the early days, and the wind is pretty much locked in from the east or east-northeast, which is a cross-shore for this beach/jetty setup. That means a lot of sections will be chopped and messy. The water temp is sitting at 80°, which is about normal for this time of year, nothing unusual there.

The best of a pretty average bunch comes on Sunday, 26 July. You’ll see morning glass with the wind dropping to 3 mph from the east-southeast, going glassy. The swell is small, about 3 ft from the NE with a 7-second period, and combined energy reading 91 - weak, but it’s the cleanest window we’ve got. The afternoon stays glassy with a similar 3 ft NE swell and energy 99. It’s not gonna blow your mind, but it’s surfable.

Monday morning, 27 July, is also worth a look. The wind shifts to a light cross-offshore from the east-southeast at 3 mph, giving clean conditions. The swell is even smaller, 3 ft from the ENE, period 7 seconds, energy 81. It’s tiny, but if you’ve got a groveler, it’ll be smooth.

After that, we drop into a long stretch of poor conditions. From late Monday right through to the end of the forecast on 7 August, the wind stays cross-shore and bumpy, mostly 9-12 mph, with swell heights hovering around 3 ft to 5 ft. The energy picks up a bit around 30 July and 4 August, hitting 372 and 228 respectively, but the wind is just too messy to make it worth paddling out. It’s the kind of setup that would be more interesting for kite surfing than a proper paddle session.

So, bottom line: if you’re itching to get wet, hit Sunday morning. Otherwise, this stretch is a long dry spell. The forecasts can always change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.

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.
