The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break down the same outlook for Boquines, but in feet and miles per hour.
To be straight with you, this is a tough 16-day forecast for Boquines. This reef needs a clean window, and it's just not getting one. For the entire first week, from Monday the 7th through Sunday the 13th, the surf is a mess. We've got consistent swell running 4 to 7 feet, but it's all coming from the NNE with a weak period of 7 to 8 seconds. The wind is the killer – onshore and cross-onshore from the NNE or N at 9 to 16 mph, putting a nasty chop on everything. The water temp is about 75°, which is normal for the season, but doesn't help when the waves are blown out. The combined energy peaks at 670 (moderate) on Saturday the 12th, but it's all poor quality. You're looking at 7 days of no real surf.
The first real chance comes on Monday the 14th of September. The swell switches to the NNW – the ideal direction for this spot – and the period jumps to 12-13 seconds, a proper groundswell. The height is small, though, only 2 to 3 feet. The combined energy is 258 (moderate) and 289 (moderate), and the wind is a light cross-onshore. It's a "marginal" call, maybe a 1 out of 10, but it's the best we've got. A longboard might find a couple of clean little peelers on the low tide.
Tuesday the 15th is similar, with another 3-foot NNW groundswell, but again, it's only marginal.
After that, we slide back into poor conditions. The 18th and 19th of September show a building swell from the N and NNE, with heights hitting 6 to 7 feet and periods of 9-10 seconds. The combined energy gets strong, reaching 973 (strong) on Saturday the 19th. But the wind is still cross-onshore from the ENE, so it's a "marginal" forecast at best. For experts only, that Saturday might have some raw, heavy lines, but it won't be clean. The standout window is the Monday the 14th and Tuesday the 15th for the smallest, cleanest waves, but don't get your hopes up. It's a quiet spell.
Rusty.

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