The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s cooking for Los Locos over the next couple of weeks.
First up, the water temp is sitting at 71.1°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – nothing wild, but noticeable.
The first few days are a write-off, I’m not gonna lie. The 25th and 26th are all poor conditions with tiny, messy waves. You’ll be fighting a lumpy cross-chop for barely a ripple. Save your energy.
Then, Monday the 27th is where it gets interesting. We’ve got a solid 4.9ft to 5.2ft swell rolling in from the NNW, with a nice 10-second period giving it some proper shape. The real kicker? Monday morning is glassy, and Monday afternoon the wind goes clean offshore from the NE. That’s the standout window. The combined energy is up there at 571-613 (moderate to strong), so there’s plenty of push. This is a consistent break, so expect waves. With the offshore wind, it’s going to be clean and lined up. Best bet of the whole run.
Tuesday the 28th keeps the good times rolling with a slightly smaller 3.6ft to 4.3ft swell, still clean with offshore or cross-off winds. Good surf, but not the standout.
Wednesday the 29th through the 30th drops off fast. Small waves, weak energy, and onshore winds take over. Thursday the 30th is surfable, but tiny and ordinary.
We hit another quiet patch from Friday the 31st of July right through Saturday the 8th of August. There’s a small bump on Saturday the 1st of August – 3.6ft with glassy morning conditions, and the energy is moderate (317). That’s worth a look for a fun session, but not as strong as the 27th. Monday the 3rd of August sees a 5.2ft swell but with onshore wind and even rain, so it’s messy. After that, it’s mostly small, ordinary waves with a few clean windows but nothing to get excited about.
The real standout is crystal clear: Monday the 27th of July. The combination of a solid 4.9-5.2ft NNW groundswell with that 10-second period, and the morning glass or afternoon offshore NE wind, is going to deliver the best, cleanest waves of the period. Don’t miss it.

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.
