Table - best surf conditions forecast for Boucan Rights over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s cooking at Boucan Rights.
We’ve got a solid run of surf kicking off this Saturday afternoon, July 11th. Water temp is about 76°, which is normal for this time of year.
The first standout is Saturday afternoon. Boucan Rights is a reef break, and we’ve got a 6ft SW swell with a 15-second period – that’s proper groundswell, packing a ton of energy (1361). The wind is glassy from the SSW. This is for advanced surfers only – 6ft on a reef with that much push is serious. Crowds are often here, so expect some company.
Sunday morning, July 12th, the swell jumps to 8ft from the SW, still 15 seconds, and the energy is massive (2699). Wind is calm, glassy. This is big, powerful, and only for experts.
The real standout of the whole window is Monday, July 20th. Monday morning we get an 8ft SW swell with a 16-second period – that’s a very long period groundswell, and the energy is enormous (2761). The wind is offshore from the SSE at 10 km/h, keeping it clean. This is the one to aim for. The afternoon holds similar size with a moderate offshore breeze.
There’s a drop-off around Thursday, July 16th, with small, weak, onshore junk. But it recovers quickly.
The second week has some promising calls, but they’re less certain. Sunday, July 26th, shows a 4ft SW swell with a 20-second period – that’s a very long period groundswell, and the energy is strong (1592). Glassy wind in the morning. Worth watching, but don’t bet the farm on it yet.
Best bets: Saturday afternoon, July 11th, for a clean start, and Monday, July 20th, for the biggest, cleanest, most powerful swell of the run.
Rusty.

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.
