Table - best surf conditions forecast for Los Locos over the next 16 days.
Alright, let’s break it down, imperial style.
Los Locos is a consistent, beginner-friendly break that’s wide open to NW swell and likes wind out of the NW. Right now, it’s flat and quiet. Water temp is about 70°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
Friday the 10th is a bust – tiny 2ft NW swell, light cross-shore wind, weak energy (87). Forget it.
Saturday the 11th is the clear winner. Morning looks clean with an offshore breeze around 6 mph, swell 2ft from the NW with an 11-second period. Energy is modest (95) but it’ll be fun and clean on a log or a groveler. The afternoon stays clean with a stronger 16 mph offshore wind.
From Sunday the 12th through Tuesday the 22nd, it’s a long, quiet stretch. Most days have swell under 3ft, poor wind direction, and very low energy – often below 30. A few mornings are surfable but nothing special. Crowds are common here when it’s good, but they won’t be a problem.
Things improve Thursday the 23rd. The morning has messy cross-onshore wind, but swell hits 3ft from the NW at 10 seconds, moderate energy (164). By afternoon it cleans up with a cross-shore breeze, 3ft NW swell, energy 202.
The best session of the whole outlook lands Friday the 24th. Morning is glassy – dead calm with a NNW breeze at only 3 mph. Swell 3ft from the NW at 11 seconds, energy 194. That’s clean, fun, and the best conditions you’ll see.
Saturday the 25th turns ugly again with onshore wind and light rain.
So here’s the call: skip the first two weeks. Your best bets are the clean Saturday morning on the 11th and the glassy Friday morning on the 24th. That’s where it’s at.

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.
