The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with the long-range look. We're focused on one spot, so let's get into it.
The water at Los Locos is runnin' about 70°, which is pretty normal for the season.
Wednesday morning starts rough with rain and a crosswind messin' up a 5ft swell from the NW. Energy is moderate at 463. Wait for the afternoon though, the wind goes cross-offshore and it cleans up nicely on that 4ft swell from the NNW. Thursday is solid too. Clean in the morning on a 5ft NW swell, and Thursday afternoon is a real standout – a clean 4ft wave with proper offshore wind from the NE. That's a session you don't wanna miss. Friday morning goes small and glassy at 2ft with a short period, real weak, just a float session. Saturday morning is flat at 1ft, so don't even bother.
Here's the good stuff. Sunday the 13th is lookin' prime. Morning brings a clean 5ft NW groundswell with a long 13-second period and strong energy (723). Light cross-offshore wind, too. Move your morning around for that one. Sunday afternoon gets bigger – 6ft from the NW with energy jumpin' to 936. It's a moderate offshore, still clean, but that's expert territory. Monday stays solid with a clean 4ft NW swell, then it fades into smaller, weaker surf through Tuesday and Wednesday.
There's a lull mid-week, but Thursday the 17th afternoon returns with a clean 5ft swell from the NNW and light cross-offshore wind. Then, another absolute gem on Saturday the 19th. The morning is dead glassy, zero wind, with a 5ft NW groundswell (13 seconds) pushin' 637 energy. That's paradise. The afternoon holds up great, too. The following Monday the 21st starts glassy but small, then a moderate offshore in the afternoon on a 3ft NW swell.
Lookin' way out to the 24th of September, Thursday afternoon brings a big, clean 6ft NNW swell with a light cross-offshore breeze. Energy is cranked up to 1136 – strong. That's a standout for the experienced crowd, too big for beginners. It's far out, so keep an eye on it, but it's got serious potential.
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.
