Los Caños surf guide

Los Caños is a surf spot located within a beautiful bay known for its consistent waves and relaxed beach vibe. It's a popular choice among surfers looking for a more laid-back environment. With its picturesque coastline and the charm of old 60s-style holiday apartments nearby, it's an inviting place to catch some waves. However, don't expect it to be deserted; it can get pretty crowded, especially when the surf is on.

The left-hander here works best with solid swells coming from the west, but it also picks up southwest and northwest swells. It can handle swell sizes starting from around 3 feet (about 1 meter) and often delivers steep, barreling take-offs that lead into long and playful walls. The take-off zone can be quite tight, so you'll need to work on your positioning. Just a heads up, big swells might close out the bay, making it tricky to find the right spot, but there are definitely other waves around the bay to keep you entertained. The best time to surf is during low to mid tides, and northeast winds are preferable.

While surfing at Los Caños, keep in mind that the peak can get a bit crowded, and some vibes might be present. Watch out for urchins and submerged rocks when taking a dip, as they can be lurking beneath the surface. The area from the lighthouse of Trafalgar to the edge of the natural park features a variety of waves, so exploring can lead you to some hidden gems. Just remember to be respectful out there and enjoy the sessions!

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"
