The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' at Los Locos over the next couple of weeks. It's a bit of a mixed bag, but there's definitely some quality windows to get excited about.

The first few days are where the real action is. Monday the 27th kicks off with a solid pulse of NW groundswell pushing in at a clean 6ft. The wait will be worth it. This swell has got some good energy behind it, with a combined swell energy of 583, and it's arriving with those classic NNW lines. The wind is dead calm in the morning, absolutely glassy. That's the kind of start that gets the heart pumping. The afternoon holds with a NE offshore breeze that'll keep things tidy.

Tuesday the 28th is more of the same, but the swell is starting to drop a touch. Still a very solid 4ft to 4ft of NW swell with good 10-second periods. Mornings have a cross-offshore element, but the afternoon turns into a clean offshore breeze. It’s still going to be a great day in the water.

Wednesday the 29th is where the party starts to wind down. The swell drops under 3ft and the wind turns onshore and cross-shore, making conditions pretty average. From there, we’re looking at a proper lull. Swell sizes tumble to barely a ripple. A few days like Thursday the 31st and into the first week of August have tiny, weak waves with combined energies as low as 33. This is a stretch where the board might stay in the car, to be honest.

There's a flicker of life around the 1st and 2nd of August with some waist-high waves and offshore winds, but the period is really short and the energy is low. Not going to be anything to write home about. After that, it gets genuinely poor for a solid week. We're talking consistent onshore chop and barely a knee-high bump for days on end.

Now, hold on, because towards the end of the period, around the 10th and 11th of August, there's a little pulse of life. It's not the pumping swell of the 27th, but we start to see some 3ft swell lines pushing in again. The wind turns offshore or glassy, and the conditions clean right up. This far out, I'm calling it promising but a little uncertain.

So here's the deal: Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th at Los Locos are your absolute standouts. You've got that chest-to-head high NW groundswell with glassy and offshore winds. The water temperature is sitting about average for this time of year, so no surprises there. Keep in mind that with a crowd rating of "often," you might have some company, but for waves like that, it's expected. For the beginners, the Monday morning swell is just over 5ft, so it might be a bit much. The Tuesday morning will be a much more comfortable option.

The rest of the run? Mostly a write-off, with a possible decent window right at the very end on the 10th and 11th. Keep an eye on those long-range forecasts.

Rusty, signing off.

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.
