The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Alright, let’s break it down for you in feet and miles per hour. This 16-day stretch at Boquines is mostly a bummer, with a long stretch of poor conditions and messy wind.
The first real sign of life isn’t until Saturday the 8th of September. Before that, from the 29th of August through the afternoon of the 8th, it’s all poor surf with moderate breezes and choppy water. Swell runs from about 4ft up to 7ft, but the wind is always ruining it.
The one and only standout is Wednesday morning, the 9th of September. That’s your day. Swell hits 8ft from the NNE, with a 9-second period, and the combined energy is a solid 1048—that’s strong. But the real deal is the wind: glassy. Dead calm, offshore, perfect conditions. For a reef break like Boquines, that’s pure gold. It’s an advanced wave only, and at 8ft it’s for experts, but the quality is excellent. Water temp is 76°, a touch warmer than usual.
After that, it fades into marginal stuff from Thursday the 10th to Sunday the 13th, with lighter wind but still cross-onshore, and swell dropping to 4ft to 6ft. Energy is back in the 200-600 range. Not worth getting too excited about.
Bottom line: circle Wednesday the 9th of September. That morning is glassy, solid, and promising. The rest of the window is mostly a write-off.
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.
