The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what’s on the cards for Los Locos over the next couple of weeks. First up, there’s no surf at all right now – we’ve got a blank spell to kick things off. The first proper waves of the period show up on Monday the 7th.

Monday the 7th brings a small but promising start. Morning glass-off with a clean 2-foot swell out of the WNW, period at 14 seconds – that’s a proper groundswell, real long lines. Combined energy is sitting at 240 (moderate). By the afternoon, it’s still small at 3 feet, but with a light cross-off breeze from the north it’s gonna be clean. Not a standout, but a nice, quiet re-entry into the water.

Tuesday the 8th is a write-off. Onshore wind and chop. Nothing to see here.

Now, Wednesday the 9th is where we get our first real standout. The morning kicks off with a clean 6-foot swell from the NNW, period at 9 seconds, and light cross-off winds from the north. Combined energy jumps right up to 494 (strong). This is some serious juice for Los Locos. The afternoon gets even better – same clean conditions, but the swell drops slightly to 5 feet, and the combined energy maxes out at 638 (very strong). The wind stays clean. This is the best on offer for the whole outlook – a proper session if you’re game. 6 feet is pushing it for beginners, so more for the experienced crew.

Thursday the 10th stays good. Morning glassy conditions with a 5-foot NW swell (434 energy – strong), and the afternoon turns offshore with 4 feet from the NNW. Consistent clean lines. Crowds are often here, so don’t expect solitude.

The weekend from Friday the 11th through Sunday the 13th drops off in size but still has clean moments, especially Sunday morning the 13th with a glassy 3-foot NW groundswell (period 13 seconds, energy 344 – moderate). A sneaky good dawn patrol.

Looking into the second week, Monday the 15th morning is another highlight – glassy conditions, 4 feet from the NW, with a 12-second period and combined energy of 413 (strong). Clean and powerful. Then we hit a rough patch from Tuesday the 16th through to Friday the 18th – onshore winds and chop dominate. Not worth paddling out.

The pattern turns back around for Saturday the 19th. A clean 4-foot NW swell with offshore winds and combined energy of 481 (strong). This looks promising but it’s over a week away, so keep an eye on it.

Water temp at Los Locos is sitting at 70°F with a positive anomaly of 1°F, so it’s slightly warmer than average for this time of year – nice.

So, to wrap it up: Wednesday the 9th is the clear standout, with Thursday the 10th and Monday the 15th as strong runners-up. Get out there when it’s clean.

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.
