The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cookin’ at Los Locos.
We’ve got a solid run of surf opening up here, starting this Saturday morning. The first few days of the period are a write-off – Thursday and Friday are dead with poor conditions. But from Saturday, things start to get interesting.
The standout window is Saturday morning the 5th. That’s the pick of the whole forecast. We’re looking at a 4ft swell from the NW, with a beautiful long period of 14 seconds – that’s proper groundswell energy. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the east, which will leave the faces clean as a whistle. The combined energy is solid at (565). This is a morning to get the good board out. Be aware, though, this spot is consistent, and with those kind of conditions, it’s likely to be popular – crowds are often an issue here.
Saturday afternoon holds up too, but the wind picks up to a moderate 16 mph from the ENE, still offshore, but it’ll be a bit bumpier. The swell bumps up to 5ft and the energy jumps to (905). That’s a lot of power, but the period drops to 13 seconds, still good.
Sunday the 6th is a bit messy. The wind swings onshore from the west, and the swell gets choppy. Not one to get excited about. Monday is a bit of a mix, with a clean window on Monday afternoon with a 3ft NW swell and cross-off wind, but the energy is low (276).
The next proper standout is Wednesday the 9th afternoon. The wind is offshore from the NE at 12 mph, the swell is 5ft from the NW with an 11-second period, and the energy is pumping at (541). Expect very good, clean conditions.
Into the second week, things get more variable. The wind patterns are a bit all over the place, but there are a few clean windows. Saturday the 12th afternoon goes glassy, but the swell is only 3ft and the energy is weak (193) – just a fun little session. The real gem in the second week is Wednesday the 16th morning. Clear skies, a light offshoring breeze from the east, and a 5ft NW swell with a 10-second period. The energy is robust at (554). That one is worth circling on the calendar, but it’s a week and a half out, so keep your fingers crossed that the forecasts hold.
Water temp is sitting at 71°F, which is pretty normal for this time of year, nothing crazy.
All in all, the best bets are Saturday the 5th morning and Wednesday the 9th afternoon. The 16th is a promising long-range call.
Rusty.

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.
