Alright, Rusty here.
Let’s be real – it’s a tough run for Boquines. This is a consistent reef break that likes a NW swell, but for the next couple of weeks, the wind is just cruel. The water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year.
Starting Monday, July 6th, it’s a total loss. Swell is tiny, period is short, and the wind is onshore. The energy is weak (179 to 173). That same junk carries right through Tuesday and Wednesday. Small, weak, onshore. Nothing to chase.
Thursday, July 9th, looks no better. Friday, July 10th, the energy picks up a whisker (103 to 106), but it’s still onshore and short-period. Saturday the 11th is the same story. Honestly, this constant onshore wind would make this spot better for kite surfing than paddling.
Sunday, July 12th, brings a longer period of 8 seconds and a little more energy (160 to 202), but that cross-onshore wind makes it choppy. Not a good look at all.
That pattern just keeps going. Monday July 13th through Thursday July 16th, you’ve got 1.0m to 1.6m swell, moderate onshore winds, and energy that rarely breaks 200. It’s all poor.
Now, the one window to keep an eye on is around Friday, July 17th. The swell starts to push from the NNE, hitting 1.8m to 2.0m, and the energy jumps hard (308 to 398). By Saturday, July 18th, it’s 2.0m to 2.1m with strong energy (481 to 546). This is the standout period for size, but it’s only good for experts (over 2.5m is expert-only), and that wind is still onshore. It’s big, but messy.
The peak comes Sunday, July 19th, through Monday, July 20th. The swell tops out around 2.1m to 2.2m and the energy gets very strong (599 to 626). That’s the most power we see, but again, the wind is onshore from 20 to 25 mph. The swell direction is NNE, and the period is 8 to 9 seconds. It’s not clean.
The best bet for the whole stretch is that Saturday, July 18th to Monday, July 20th, for size and energy. But – and it’s a big but – the onshore wind will tear it up. If you’re an expert looking to get pounded, that’s your shot. For everyone else, it’s a pass.
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.
