The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Straight up, the next week and a bit is a slow grind for Boiling Pot. We’ve got a long dry spell at the start with barely a ripple worth paddling for. The first real hint of life doesn’t show up until Wednesday the 9th, but even then, it’s pretty ordinary. A small 4ft SE swell creeps in with light offshore wind in the morning, and the combined energy is only 188 (moderate), so it’s surfable but nothing to get excited about. The period sits at 9 seconds, so it’s not a proper groundswell – just a weak, short-range pulse. The offshore wind will keep it clean, but honestly, it’s only for the keen.
The real standout in this whole 16-day window is Monday the 14th. That morning, Boiling Pot sees a clean 5ft swell from the ESE with a 6-second period and combined energy of 322 (moderate). The wind is a gentle cross-off from the ESE, so the surface will be clean. Now, that period is short, so the waves will be a bit fat and lacking punch, but for this stretch, it’s the best on offer. The swell direction is ENE at optimum for the break, so the lines should wrap in nicely. Just keep in mind, Boiling Pot is inconsistent and often crowded, so you’ll want to be early. The water temp is about average for the time of year.
After that, Tuesday the 15th has a glassy morning with a tiny 2ft NE swell, but the energy is weak (117) and it’s barely surfable. The rest of the run is mostly small and messy, with poor conditions and no real power. The week of the 18th onward is a write-off – tiny swells, onshore winds, and nothing over 3ft.
So, if you’re after the best session, circle Monday the 14th. It’s not world-class, but it’s the cleanest and biggest we’ll see. The rest of the time, you’re better off doing something else.
Rusty.
