Table - best surf conditions forecast for Boiler Bay over the next 16 days.
Hey, Rusty here. I’ve been staring at the charts for the next sixteen days, and I’ve got to tell you, it’s a rough stretch ahead for Boiler Bay. This is an expert reef break that requires clean conditions, and for most of the forecast, the wind is just no good. We’ve got a stubborn run of cross-shore and onshore northerly winds that are going to chop things up.
The outlook starts on Tuesday, July 7th, and there’s nothing to get excited about. Swell is tiny, around 4ft from the NW with a short 10-second period, and the combined wave energy is moderate (597). The wind is cross-onshore, making it choppy. The water is much colder than normal for this time of year at 51°. It’s a total scratch for a paddle. That same messy pattern sticks around through the first week and into the second. By Friday, July 10th, we’ve only got marginal surf with a small 3ft SW swell and a light cross-onshore wind, but it’s still not clean.
There’s a big gap here, with very little worth mentioning. Swell sizes stay small, all under 5ft, and the wind stays stubborn. Even when we get a little more size, like a 4ft WNW swell on Saturday the 11th, the wind is cross-shore. Not clean.
Finally, we get a bit of a push in the third week. From Saturday, July 18th into Monday, July 20th, the swell picks up to 7ft to 7ft from the NW. The combined wave energy jumps into the strong category (1017 to 1094), but the period is a short 7 to 9 seconds, so it will be a bit lumpy and gutless. The wind is still cross-onshore or onshore. With the swell over 5ft, this is strictly expert territory—too big and messy for anyone else. The quality is still marginal at best due to the wind.
Honestly, the best of a bad bunch looks like Tuesday morning, July 20th. The swell is 7ft from the NW with a 9-second period and very strong combined energy (1015). The wind is onshore, which isn’t ideal, but it can sometimes offer a cleaner face than a choppy cross-on. For advanced surfers only. There are no standout clean, groomed sessions in this entire outlook.
Boiler Bay (expert reef) is fairly consistent, but the conditions just aren’t lining up. It’s a blank run of poor surf for paddle surfing, and this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing with all that onshore wind and modest swell. Don’t hold your breath; forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.
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.
Boiler Bay is 70 km (43 miles) from Corvallis. If you plan a vacation in North Oregon, look for hotels and other accommodation in Corvallis. Corvallis has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
