Okay folks, Rusty here with the lowdown. Let's be straight: the next week or so is looking pretty lean at Los Locos. The water temp is running 5°F warmer than normal, sitting around 71°F – you'll definitely notice that.

The first half-decent chance is Saturday afternoon, July 4th. We've got a NW swell at 2ft, with a clean 15 mph offshore breeze from the NE. The energy's weak though, only 115, so it's just a little tease. Sunday the 5th is even smaller in the morning, 2ft with a gentle offshore.

From Monday the 6th through to Thursday the 16th, it's a rough stretch. The wind is mostly cross, cross-on, or onshore, and the swell is tiny – often 1ft to 2ft. The energy readings are weak, barely ticking over. There's a brief moment of glassy conditions on the 9th, but the swell is just 1ft – you'd be floating.

Now, the good stuff. About 12 days out, on Thursday the 17th of July, everything lines up. You've got a solid 4ft NW groundswell with a 9-second period, and a NE offshore wind – 6 mph in the morning, picking up to 12 mph in the afternoon. The energy jumps to 261, which is moderate, and the conditions are clean. This is the real standout. The swell direction is right out of the NW, which is perfect for this spot.

Friday the 18th holds up with 3ft and offshore wind in the morning. Sunday the 19th has a bigger 5ft swell, but the period drops to 8 seconds, making it a bit lumpy, even with a 12 mph offshore.

All in all, the first 12 days are a big zero. There’s a nearly two-week gap of poor or just ordinary waves. Save your energy for Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th. 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.
