The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Honestly, the next 16 days at Boquines are looking like a total bust. The wind has it in for us, blowing straight onshore from the north-northeast or north the whole time. The swell is coming from the right direction, but it don’t matter when it’s all wind-whipped. The water is sitting at 73°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
Starting Friday the 24th of July, we’ve got moderate to fresh breezes hammering the reef. Swell heights are 7ft to 8ft, dropping off through the week. The combined energy is moderate, between 515 and 129, but it’s all blown out. The period is short, 7 to 8 seconds, so no real grunt.
By the end of July into early August, the swell drops to 4ft down to 2ft, with longer periods up to 10 seconds, but the wind is still onshore. The energy is weak, around 131 to 195. On the 2nd of August, the wind goes cross-onshore, but it’s still choppy.
The second week sees a little bump on the 4th and 5th of August, with swell back to 5ft, but the wind stays onshore. The energy is moderate (around 348 to 302), but the quality is poor. By the 8th of August, it’s cross-onshore and rainy.
There’s no saving grace here. For a consistent reef break, this is a rough stretch. The wind just won’t let up. It’s more of a kiteboarding scene than a surf session for the whole period.
Hang tight, things can change.
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.
