The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Los Locos.

First things first, Los Locos is a consistent, exposed beginner-friendly spot. Water temp is sitting at 71°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you might get away with a slightly thinner suit.

The weekend kicks off with a proper standout. Sunday morning (6th September) is your window. We’ve got clean 5 ft swell from the NW with an 11-second period, and the wind is glassy from the west. The combined energy is solid at 578 – that’s moderate wave energy, plenty of push for a fun, punchy wave. Expect very good surf conditions. This is the best on offer, no question. Keep in mind crowds are likely here.

Sunday afternoon drops off quick – cross-on wind messes it up, so don’t sleep in. Monday morning (7th) still has some small, clean 2 ft swell from the WNW with a long 14-second period and glassy wind. It’s small but shaped nicely. Tuesday (8th) gets messy with onshore wind, not worth the paddle.

We’ve got another window opening Wednesday afternoon (9th September). Swell bumps up to 4 ft from the NW, but the period is short at 8 seconds. Wind is cross-off from the NNW, keeping it clean, and the combined energy is 448 – moderate energy. It’ll be surfable, but not the quality of Sunday.

Thursday (10th) is a good day too – morning glassy with 5 ft NW swell (10 seconds, 445 energy), and afternoon goes offshore from the NE with 4 ft NW swell. That afternoon session will be clean and fun.

Then we hit a bit of a flat spell. From Friday the 11th through to Saturday the 12th, it drops to under 3 ft with weak energy (73 to 124). Still surfable in the mornings, but ordinary.

The next real standout is Sunday the 13th. The morning has 3 ft from the NW with a long 13-second period, clean and cross-off. But the afternoon is the gem: 4 ft NW swell, 12-second period, offshore wind from the ENE at 12 mph, and a combined energy of 503. That’s moderate energy, clean, and punchy. This is a standout session for the second week.

Monday the 14th holds well – glassy morning with 4 ft NW swell (11 seconds, 299 energy), and offshore winds continue into the afternoon. Good, clean fun.

Tuesday the 15th brings onshore wind and messy conditions, so skip it.

Wednesday the 16th is back on – glassy morning with 3 ft NW swell (10 seconds, 249 energy), and afternoon goes offshore from the NE. Clean, small waves.

Thursday the 17th has a glassy morning with 4 ft NW swell (10 seconds, 385 energy), but the afternoon gets a bit crossed up. Still surfable if you’re keen.

After that, from Friday the 18th onwards, the size drops again, staying under 3 ft through to Monday the 21st. Most sessions are ordinary, with only occasional glassy or offshore pockets. The 21st afternoon sees a fresh offshore wind at 18 mph and 4 ft NW swell (196 energy), but that wind is strong enough to make it tricky for beginners.

So, to sum it up: your absolute best bets are Sunday morning the 6th and Sunday afternoon the 13th. Get on those, and you’ll be smiling.

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.
