Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about this forecast for Los Locos. We’ve got a classic case of patience paying off, with a real standout run of waves in the second week.

Overall, the next few days are looking pretty ordinary. There’s a bit of swell around, but it’s small and the conditions are just not coming together. We’re looking at small, weak surf for a solid stretch. The energy is low, with combined swell energy barely hitting three digits in the middle of the day on July 4th, sitting at (136), but it quickly drops off. Honestly, Saturday the 4th through to at least Friday the 10th is a write-off for quality surf. You'll see clean conditions here and there, like the morning of the 9th with a light cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is tiny – 2ft from the NW. It’s surfable, but you won't be telling your buddies about it.

The wait is worth it though because things change dramatically starting Sunday, July 12th. That morning is our first absolute standout. The ocean switches on. We’ve got a clean 6ft swell from the NW, with a 10-second period, and the wind goes glassy. It’s going to be super clean, and the energy jumps to a strong (533). This is the kind of morning you make plans for. And it holds through the afternoon with a cross-offshore breeze – still a solid 6ft.

Monday the 13th is another cracker. The swell pushes up to 7ft from the NW, good period of 9 seconds, and it’s clean again with a light cross-offshore wind. The combined energy hits (646). This is proper surf. That’s the highlight of the whole run, and it’s best for experienced surfers as it's well overhead. The morning looks perfect. Tuesday the 14th morning is also lovely, with 5ft from the NW and totally glassy conditions. Energy is still moderate at (293).

After that, the swell starts to fade quickly from Wednesday the 15th onward, and we’re back to small, poor conditions for the rest of the forecast. So, if you want the good stuff, your window is Sunday the 12th through Tuesday the 14th of July. The water is currently much warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 71°, so you can leave the thickest wetsuit at home.

Stay stoked, and be ready for that Sunday morning.

Rusty.

Information about the Los Locos Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Los Locos provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Los Locos can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Los Locos 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 Locos) 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 Locos 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.

Los Locos is 10 km (6 miles) from Torrelavega. If you plan a holiday in Spain - Cantabria, look for hotels and other accommodation in Torrelavega. Torrelavega has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
