The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Boucan Rights. This is a serious reef break for advanced surfers only, and the water is sitting at 76°F, a bit warmer than average for this time of year.
We start on Tuesday, September 8th. The morning brings a solid 7ft SSW groundswell with a long 16-second period, and a gentle offshore wind keeping it clean. The wave energy is pumping at 4245. This is for experts only. That afternoon, things get even bigger: 12ft SSW swell, 15-second period, and energy jumps to 8583. The wind stays gentle and offshore – exceptional but dangerous.
Wednesday, September 9th, is the big one. Morning delivers a massive 13ft SSW groundswell with a very long 17-second period, glassy conditions, and 8708 energy. It’s a dream for the big-wave crew. The afternoon holds at 12ft with 17 seconds and 6300 energy, still glassy. This is your window.
Thursday the 10th eases a bit but still offers excellent 7ft SSW swell in the morning with 2082 energy and total glass. The afternoon switches to a 7ft SSE swell, still glassy.
From Friday the 11th through the weekend, the swell drops. You’ve got fun, clean conditions with 4ft to 5ft SSW swell, but energy levels (538 to 784) mean it’s a relaxed session. Saturday has light, glassy winds.
Sunday the 13th brings a new pulse: 6ft SSW groundswell with a long 17-second period and 1917 energy. Morning wind is a bit cross-on, but the afternoon glass-off makes it worthwhile.
Into the second week, Monday the 14th through Wednesday the 16th, you’ve got solid swell around 5ft to 6ft. Winds are light, often offshore or glassy. Tuesday the 15th afternoon is a highlight with 6ft SSW and 2295 energy in glassy conditions.
Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th are mixed. Friday morning has a weird 3ft SW swell with a massive 20-second period; the afternoon improves to 4ft SW at 19 seconds and glassy conditions (1453 energy). That long period will make it very straight – expect long waits.
The final weekend, September 19th and 20th, is mostly marginal, but Sunday the 20th afternoon cleans up with 4ft SW at 16 seconds and 1529 energy and glassy conditions.
Boucan Rights is for the brave. The standout is Wednesday the 9th – that glassy, giant SSW groundswell is about as good as it gets for experts. Tuesday the 15th afternoon is your next best bet: less intimidating size but still excellent.

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.
