The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s chew through what’s coming for Boiler Bay.
Right now, you’re looking at a long dry spell. From today through around the 22nd of September, the wind is mostly onshore, the swell is junky, and the wave quality is poor. A lot of weak, short-period stuff with lumpy surface. The combined energy figures are moderate, but without clean wind, it doesn’t matter. Hard pass.
The first real window opens up on Thursday, September 24th, in the morning. Glassy conditions, not a breath of wind, with waves around 5ft from the WNW, period 10 seconds. That’s clean, lined-up, and fun. Water temp is about average for the time of year.
The standout session is Friday, September 25th, specifically the morning. Swell jumps to 8ft from the NW, period 10 seconds, with a gentle offshore breeze from the SSW. That’s a proper wave for experienced surfers – strong energy (1434), clean faces, and good shape at this reef break. The afternoon stays solid at 8ft, but the wind picks up and goes more cross-off, so still rideable but not as clean. Crowds are possible here, so don’t expect to have it to yourself.
After that, conditions go back to marginal or poor through the end of September, with onshore winds returning. One more glassy moment on Wednesday, September 30th, in the morning – 5ft WNW swell, period 8 seconds, calm winds – gives you clean, fun-sized waves, but with shorter period, it won’t have the same punch.
The one to chase: Friday the 25th, first light. That’s your best shot.
Rusty.

Information about the Boiler Bay Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Boiler Bay provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Boiler Bay can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Boiler Bay 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 (Boiler Bay) 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 Boiler Bay 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.
