The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it. We’ve got a real sweet spot opening up at Los Locos for a couple of days, then it all fades out. The water’s sitting at 71°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year – a nice little bonus for the skin.
The real standout is Monday, 27th July. We’re looking at solid 6ft swell from the NNW, with a clean 10-second period pushing a decent amount of energy (583). The wind is glassy in the morning – that’s the ticket. The afternoon sees the wind pick up from the NE at 16 mph, but it’s offshore, so it’ll still be clean. This is the best day of the whole run, and it’s consistent, so get out there. The swell is over 5ft, so it’s a bit much for absolute beginners, but for anyone else, it’s perfect.
Tuesday, 28th July is still very good, but the swell is backing off a touch. Morning has 5ft from the NNW with a light cross-offshore breeze making it clean. The afternoon drops to 4ft from the NW with a gentle offshore. Still a solid day.
After that, things get ordinary. From Wednesday, 29th July, the swell shrinks and the wind turns onshore from the WNW. The energy drops off fast (down to 97 by Wednesday afternoon). We get a few days with tiny, weak waves and poor conditions. From the 31st of July right through to the 11th of August, the surf is either flat or blown out. There’s a long gap of over a week here with nothing worth paddling for. The energy is mostly in the double digits, and the wind is almost always onshore. If you’re desperate, you might find a knee-high wave on the 1st of August in the afternoon, but it’s a long shot. The 11th of August morning shows a bit of life with 3ft and glassy conditions, but it’s weak.
So, bottom line: nail Monday and Tuesday. The rest of the forecast is a write-off.
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.
