The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk surf.
It’s been a slow start, but we’ve got a solid window coming up. The early part of the week is pretty ordinary, but the real action kicks off on Monday, July 27th. That’s the standout window for this whole forecast period.
Los Locos
The week starts quiet. Saturday the 25th is a write-off with a stormy risk and gusty cross-onshore winds blowing out a tiny 3-foot windswell. Sunday the 26th is a little bigger at 4 feet but still choppy and cross-on, nothing to get excited about.
Then Monday the 27th arrives, and it’s a beauty. Morning sees a clean 5-foot groundswell from the NNW, with a period of 10 seconds and a light offshore breeze from the NNE. This is the best of the lot. The combined swell energy is moderate at 573, and those conditions are just about perfect. The afternoon holds up with a 5-foot swell and a fresh offshore from the NE, still clean. This is your session.
Tuesday the 28th is still good, with a dropping but clean 4-foot NW swell in the morning and a light cross-offshore breeze. The afternoon is offshore again, but the swell is down to 4 feet. Still a fun, clean day.
From Wednesday the 29th through the end of the month, it fades fast. Swells drop below 3 feet, and winds become cross-onshore or cross-shore. The water temp is 71°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year.
The first week of August is mostly flat and poor. There’s a small bump on Wednesday, August 5th, with a 4-foot NW swell showing up in the afternoon with clean cross-offshore wind. It’s not the size or quality of the 27th, but it’s the only other half-decent window in the second week. The rest of the time is tiny, choppy, or glassy but tiny.
The Monday, July 27th is the clear winner here. Head to Los Locos for that morning session. It’s a consistent break, exposed to the NW, and with that offshore wind, it’ll be clean. Crowds are often a thing here, so get in early.
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.
