Boneyards Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here with the lowdown on Boneyards for the next couple of weeks. First thing: the water’s sittin’ at about 58°F, which is 3°F cooler than usual for this time of year – a bit chilly, so pack a thicker suit.

The start of the run is a dud. Saturday the 4th and Sunday the 5th are rough – cross-on wind and weak, short-period junk with energy readings in the 600-750 range. Not worth your time. Monday the 6th is where the magic kicks in.

Monday morning (6th July) is the standout: glassy conditions with a light breeze, and a solid 8ft groundswell out of the WSW with an 11-second period. The combined energy is pumpin’ at 1415 – that’s moderate-to-strong juice. This is excellent for experienced surfers – it’s pushin’ toward 8ft, so beginners should stay on the sand. The swell direction is SW, and Boneyards lights up on that. It’s an inconsistent spot, so you’ll have some waiting between sets, but the waves that roll through will be worth the paddle. Tuesday morning (7th) is real close: glassy again, 7ft from the SW with a 12-second period, and energy at 1529. That’s a beauty, but Monday’s just a bit cleaner.

From Wednesday the 8th through Friday the 10th, the wind pumps from the southeast, blowin’ offshore but strong – up to 25 mph. The swell stays solid, 7ft to 8ft, with moderate-to-strong energy (1065 to 2841), and the period gets long – up to 16 seconds. That long period means power and shape, but at a beach break it can run a bit straight. It’s better for the experts with the offshore wind, but conditions are a little rough. By Saturday the 11th, the wind drops: light offshore or cross-off, and a smaller 5ft swell from the SSW. This one’s cleaner and more accessible for a wider crew – energy around 779-821.

Sunday the 12th through Wednesday the 15th goes quiet. Swell drops under 3ft, energy falls below 450, and the wind is mostly cross or onshore. Don’t get your hopes up. Thursday the 16th shows a bit of life: clear skies, offshore breeze, and 3ft to 4ft with a 9-10 second period. Expect decent conditions, but it’s small. Friday the 17th is tiny – only 2ft and energy as low as 102. It’s weak, but you could still get wet.

Lookin’ ahead to Saturday the 18th July, size jumps again: 6ft from the SW with a 14-second period and energy at 1255. The morning is messy with cross-on wind, but the afternoon cleans up and energy hits 1044. Not a standout, but a solid option for the weekend. Sunday the 19th is a bit smaller with strong offshore wind.

Bottom line: circle Monday morning (6th July) – glassy, 8ft, long-period groundswell, and energy pumpin’. That’s your best shot. Tuesday morning is also a gem. The second week is smaller and more inconsistent, but Thursday the 16th and Saturday the 18th afternoon could surprise.

Keep your eyes on the horizon.
