Alright, let’s talk about Boucan-Rights. We’ve got a solid run of south swell lined up, and for a reef that’s consistent and exposed to SW, this is looking tasty. The first wave of action hits Saturday July 4 morning – 5ft from the SSW, glassy, clean. Not huge but a nice way to ease in. Sunday July 5 morning stays clean with 4ft SW and light cross-offshore, then the afternoon steps up: 7ft SW with a 15-second period, solid groundswell energy (2081). That’s when it starts getting serious.
Now, the real standout is Tuesday July 7 afternoon: 10ft S swell, 12 seconds, glassy. Combined energy is strong at 3624 – that’s proper power. For an advanced reefbreak, this is world-class. Only experts should be out there. Another day to circle is Sunday July 12 – both morning and afternoon have 10ft SSW swell, 15-second period, clean offshore winds, energy readings around 3725 and 3800. That’s a full day of groundswell perfection. Keep in mind crowds are often here, but with that size and quality, it’ll be worth it.
The days in between are still good: Monday July 6 morning has 7ft SW with offshore wind, clean. Wednesday July 8 is glassy all day but smaller (5–5ft). Thursday July 9 drops to 3–3ft, so maybe a rest day. Friday July 10 picks back up with 3ft SW but 14-second period, glassy. Then Saturday July 11 morning sees 7ft SSW, glassy again. After the big Sunday, the swell holds through Monday July 13 – 8ft SSW in the morning but light cross-onshore, not as clean; the afternoon improves with 8ft and glassy conditions. Tuesday July 14 morning has 6ft glassy, nice. Wednesday July 15 morning drops to 3ft but with a very long 16-second period and glassy – that’ll be a clean, lined-up reef day. Thursday July 16 and Friday July 17 stay clean but smaller (4–5ft). The final day in the window is Saturday July 19 morning: 4ft SW, 18-second period, glassy. That’s a super long period groundswell – perfect for this reef.
Overall, you’ve got two major standouts: Tuesday July 7 afternoon and Sunday July 12 all day. Those are the ones to plan around. Everything else is fun and clean, but those are the big-game sessions.

Information about the Boucan Rights Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Boucan Rights provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Boucan Rights can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Boucan Rights 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 (Boucan Rights) 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 Boucan Rights 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.
Boucan Rights is 4 km (2 miles) from Saint-Paul. If you plan a holiday in Réunion Island, look for hotels and other accommodation in Saint-Paul. Saint-Paul has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
