The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, giving you the same story in feet and Fahrenheit.
The first real action kicks off Monday, July 27th, and it’s a cracker at Los Locos. We’ve got a solid 6ft swell from the NNW, with a 10-second period. That’s a proper groundswell, packing moderate energy (583). The morning is dead glassy – zero wind – and the water is a touch warmer than average, at 72°. The wind swings to a clean offshore from the NE in the afternoon, keeping the waves crisp. This spot is consistent and exposed, so expect good shape. It’ll be a bit crowded (often busy), but for waves this good, you’ll be stoked.
Tuesday the 28th holds up nicely, with the swell easing a bit to 5ft, still from the NNW. Light cross-offshore wind in the morning and a clean offshore in the afternoon. The energy is still moderate (394). Perfect for a beginner-friendly wave.
By Wednesday the 29th, the size and quality drop. Thursday the 30th is down to waist-high, weak energy (73). We hit a flat spell from Friday, July 31st through to August 5th. Tiny, weak, and not worth the paddle.
There’s a tiny blip on August 1st with some knee-high waves, but it’s not enough. The poor run continues until around August 7th, when a tiny, very long-period swell (13 seconds) shows up at 0.7ft. Not rideable.
The next real chance appears on Sunday, August 9th, in the afternoon. A 5ft swell from the NW, period of 10 seconds, with moderate energy (441). The wind turns cross-off (NW) and the conditions clean up. It’s a hopeful long-range call. The real standout is still Monday, July 27th and Tuesday, July 28th. That’s your window.
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.
