The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.

We’re looking at a solid run of surf coming our way, with a bit of a slow start but don’t let that fool you. The first few days are small but clean, and then it builds into a proper stretch of pumping waves. The standout period is the second weekend and into the following week, where we’ve got some serious energy rolling in.

Alright, let’s break it down. The first real action is on Monday, September 7th. Los Locos is looking glassy in the morning with a light westerly breeze, tiny 2ft swell from the WNW, but it’s a long-period groundswell at 14 seconds. The energy is moderate (258). It’s small, but clean and glassy – perfect for a longboard or a beginner session. The water temp is about average for this time of year.

Tuesday the 8th gets a bit messy with a cross-onshore breeze, so the quality drops off. Wednesday the 9th is a bit of a mixed bag. The morning is a bit of a write-off, but by the afternoon, the wind swings to a light cross-offshore from the NNE, and the swell jumps up to 3ft from the NW. The energy really kicks up to moderate (509) and the conditions are clean. That’s a nice little window.

Thursday the 10th is a beauty. The morning is glassy with 5ft of NW swell, and the energy is moderate (388). Then the afternoon turns offshore from the NE, with a clean 4ft from the NNW. That’s a solid day of surf.

Friday the 11th and Saturday the 12th are pretty ordinary. The swell is small, and the energy is weak. Worth a paddle if you’re desperate, but nothing to write home about.

Now, here’s the real deal. Sunday, September 13th is the first big standout. The morning is glassy, with a 5ft NW swell and a very long period of 14 seconds. The energy is strong (950). This is a proper groundswell, and it’s looking clean. The afternoon gets even better with a moderate offshore wind from the NE, the swell bumps up to 6ft, and the energy is very strong (1267). This is excellent surf, but at 6ft, it’s getting into intermediate territory. The consistent nature of the break and the exposed NW exposure means it’ll be handling this energy well. This is the best on offer in the whole outlook.

Monday the 14th keeps the good times rolling with glassy morning conditions and 5ft of NW swell. Tuesday the 15th has a bit of a cross-on breeze in the morning, but the afternoon turns offshore again with 4ft from the NW.

Wednesday the 16th through Friday the 18th is another incredible run. Wednesday morning has a light offshore wind and 5ft NW swell. Thursday has a 6ft NW swell in the morning and a 7ft NW swell in the afternoon with a moderate offshore wind. The energy is strong to very strong (610 to 870). At 7ft, this is only for experienced surfers. Friday the 18th goes glassy again with 5ft of NW swell. These are all prime days.

After that, the surf starts to taper off. The weekend of the 19th and 20th is a bit messy with cross-on winds, but there are still some clean windows. The following week, from the 21st onwards, the swell drops back to small, surfable but ordinary conditions.

So, to keep it simple: Sunday, September 13th is the one to circle. Glassy, strong swell, long period, and clean. Then the whole stretch from Wednesday the 16th through Friday the 18th is firing with strong offshore winds and solid swell. Get out there.

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.
