Table - best surf conditions forecast for Los Locos over the next 16 days.


Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for Los Locos.

Overall, it’s a pretty quiet run through the next couple of weeks. Waist-high stuff is the best you’ll see, and that’s being generous. There’s a lot of days where the wind is just messy or the swell is too weak to get excited about. The real standout is right at the start, so don’t sleep on it.

The first proper surf worth mentioning is on Thursday afternoon, July 9th. Los Locos is seeing a clean 2ft swell rolling in from the WNW, period around 9 seconds. The wind is light and offshore from the NNE, keeping the surface nice and clean. The water is sitting at 69°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. The combined energy is weak (64), so it’s not a big day, but it’s the best conditions you’ll get. This is a consistent beginner-friendly spot, so it’s a great little session for anyone learning or just wanting a fun, easy paddle. Crowds are often here, so expect a few mates out.

After that, the week goes downhill pretty fast. Friday morning, July 10th is a write-off with cross-shore winds and poor conditions. Friday afternoon cleans up a little with a cross-offshore breeze, but the swell is still tiny at 2ft.

Saturday, July 11th is your best bet if you don’t mind the tiny swell. Offshore wind from the NE both morning and afternoon, clean conditions, but the waves are only 2ft. Good for a longboard or a foily, not much else.

From Sunday, July 12th through to the middle of the month, it’s a long stretch of poor surf. The swell drops to 0.7ft to 1ft, and the wind is cross-shore or cross-onshore most of the time, making it choppy and uninviting. There’s a decent gap of about a week with nothing worth recommending.

Things try to pick up a little towards the end of the month. On Monday morning, July 20th, the swell bumps up to 3ft from the NW, but the wind is cross-onshore, making it choppy. The afternoon cleans up with a cross-offshore breeze, but don’t expect perfection.

The best of the second week comes on Thursday morning, July 23rd. The swell hits 3ft from the NNW, with a period of 7 seconds. The combined energy finally ticks into moderate territory at 130. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the NNW, keeping the surface clean. It’s surfable, but still very ordinary. This is a long-range call, so keep an eye on it, but don’t lock in your plans.

For the rest of the run, it’s back to tiny, weak swells with messy wind. Nothing to write home about.

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.
