Table - best surf conditions forecast for Los Locos over the next 16 days.
Hey, it’s Rusty. Let’s break down Los Locos for the next couple weeks. First thing – the water is running about 4°F warmer than the norm for this time of year, so you’ll notice a change.
Truth is, most of this period is a bust. From Wednesday July 8th all the way through Tuesday July 22nd, we’ve got barely a ripple. Swell heights are stuck between 0.7ft and 2ft, with energy readings barely climbing out of the double digits. Winds are often cross or onshore, and even on the rare glassy mornings, there’s no wave to ride. That’s a solid 15‑day stretch of nothing worthwhile.
Then, on the last day, Thursday July 23rd, we finally get some action. Thursday afternoon brings a sudden 7ft of NW swell – dead on the optimum direction. The period is short at 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit crumbly, but with a light NNW cross‑off breeze at 6 mph, the surface will be clean. The combined energy hits 443 – that’s solid moderate‑strong. It’s a good size, maybe a bit much for true beginners, but for anyone comfortable in chest‑high waves, that afternoon is the session to aim for. Expect a crowd – Los Locos often gets busy.
So a long wait, but one decent shot at the end. Forecasts can change, so keep your ears open.

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.
