The Lowdown

G'day, Rusty here. Look, I've gotta be straight with you – this outlook for the next couple of weeks is a tough one. We're looking at Boiler Bay, and honestly, it's a pretty grim run. The forecast is a long stretch of poor conditions, with only a couple of fleeting moments that might be worth a look if you're desperate.

Right now, starting Sunday, August 2nd, it's already a bit of a write-off. The morning shows a 6 ft swell from the WNW with a 9-second period, but it's blowing a cross-onshore breeze at 9 mph, leaving it fairly choppy. The wave energy is moderate (515). The afternoon only gets worse with a stronger onshore wind.

This pattern sticks around for days. Monday the 3rd through to the morning of Saturday the 8th is all "poor surf conditions" – onshore or cross-onshore winds, lumpy, choppy surf. The swell hangs around 4 ft to 6 ft, period staying short between 7 and 9 seconds. It's a messy, frustrating window. The water temperature is running about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

There's a real low point from Friday afternoon, August 7th, through to Sunday the 9th. The swell drops right off to a tiny 1 ft. Sure, the period jumps to 13-16 seconds on those days, but that's a long-period groundswell with zero size. You're looking at flat, glassy conditions, but not a wave to ride.

The following week from Monday, August 10th, to Thursday the 13th sees a return of some waist-high swell, around 4 ft to 5 ft from the NW with a short 8-second period. But the wind is locked in onshore, so it's all blown-out and messy. Wave energy is building through the week from moderate (369) to strong (629), but it's useless with that wind.

Finally, there's a couple of glimmers. On Friday, August 14th, the morning shows a 5 ft NW swell (8 seconds) with a light cross-onshore breeze at 9 mph. It's still only "marginal" surf, but it's the best we've seen in a while, with energy at 587. The next morning, Sunday, August 16th, has a similar setup: 5 ft NW swell, light cross-onshore wind, and the best score of the whole run. It's still not perfect, but if you're jonesing, that's your window. Also, Monday the 17th morning has a similar story with a light breeze.

So, the pick of a bad bunch? Sunday morning, August 16th, at Boiler Bay. It's the best-rated session, with a light cross-onshore breeze and a 5 ft NW swell. The water is average for the season. But honestly, this is a spot for advanced surfers at the best of times – it's a reef break that's fairly consistent. Don't expect clean, glassy perfection. For the rest of the run, if you're into kite surfing, the strong onshore winds and choppy 5 ft+ surf might be more your thing than a paddle session.

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.
