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

Honestly, it’s a slow start. There’s nothing worth paddling out for until Monday, July 20th. That’s a solid week of flat, small, or just plain messy conditions. The first few days have tiny waves and poor quality, so don’t even bother. Just wait it out.

The real action kicks off on Monday morning, July 20th. Los Locos is the only spot in the game, and it finally wakes up. We’ve got a clean 1.5m swell from the NNW, with a 7-second period. The energy is moderate (216), and the morning is glassy – perfect, clean conditions. That’s your first decent session right there. Monday afternoon gets a bit punchier with 1.8m from the NW and a solid offshore wind from the NE at 20 km/h, keeping the face clean. The energy jumps to 367.

But the standout – and I mean the real standout of this whole forecast – is Tuesday morning, July 21st. Los Locos is looking absolutely prime. Glassy conditions, a 2.0m swell from the NNW, with a 9-second period. That’s a proper groundswell, and the energy is strong at 972. This is the best on offer. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing wild. Just get out there. It’s a consistent, exposed beach break, so it’ll handle that swell direction perfectly. Crowds are likely, but for waves like that, you’ll take it.

Tuesday afternoon gets a bit messy with a cross-shore wind and rain, but the size holds. Wednesday the 22nd sees the swell dropping slightly, but still a solid 1.9m from the NW in the morning with light cross-onshore winds – not perfect, but surfable. The energy drops a bit (827). Thursday the 23rd morning is another glassy option with a smaller 1.2m NNW swell, clean and fun.

After that, it fades out again. The weekend and into the next week are back to small, weak waves and poor conditions. Nothing to write home about. So if you’re looking for the best window, it’s Monday the 20th through Thursday the 23rd of July, with Tuesday the 21st being the absolute pick of the bunch.

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.
