The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's coming down the line for Los Locos over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a bit of a slow start. The first few days look rough, with a stormy Saturday and Sunday that’s just not worth paddling out for. The wind is messy and the waves are small and choppy. Hold tight.
The first real sign of life shows up on Monday, July 27th. The morning sees a clean little pulse from the NW pushing about 5ft, with a period of 10 seconds and a light cross-offshore breeze. The combined energy is moderate at 522. It’s looking like a proper session with clean conditions. By the afternoon, the wind swings offshore from the ENE at 15 mph, and the swell bumps up to 5ft from the NNW, with energy jumping to 594. This is the standout of the whole outlook. That’s clean, offshore wind and a solid waist-to-chest high swell. Los Locos is a consistent, exposed beach break, and with the wind this good, the setup will be firing. This is a no-brainer – get in the water.
Tuesday the 28th is still worth a look. The morning is clean with a 4ft NW swell and a light cross-offshore breeze. The energy is a solid 309. It’s a step down from Monday, but still a fun option. The afternoon drops off a bit as the wind goes cross-shore.
The rest of the first week and into the second week is a bit of a mixed bag. There are some surfable windows, like the glassy dawn on Saturday, August 1st, but the swell is tiny. We see a few clean windows with small swell, but nothing to get too excited about. The crowd profile at Los Locos is "often" busy, so for a Monday-morning freesurf, you might have it a bit more to yourself.
Now, looking way out, there’s a potential big swell on the cards for Sunday, August 9th. The afternoon shows a 8ft swell from the NW with a period of 8 seconds. That’s a heavy, short-period swell, and the combined energy is a very strong 711. This is expert territory at that size, and it comes with a cross-onshore wind that will likely chop it up. It’s promising, but a long way out, so keep a close eye on it.
So, the final word: Monday, July 27th is the absolute pick of the run. Get on it. The water temp is sitting at 72°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you can leave the 4/3 at home.
Stay stoked.
Rusty.
