Boucan Rights Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s break down what’s coming for Boucan Rights.

We start slow. From Wednesday 2nd through Thursday 3rd September, the swell is tiny—around 1ft to 2ft from the SW. The water temp is sitting at 76°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. It’s glassy in the mornings, but these waves are just too small to get excited about. The combined wave energy is weak, between 80 and 146.

Then things change. Friday 4th September is where it wakes up. The morning has a clean 2ft SW swell with a period of 19 seconds, and the energy jumps to 463. That’s a long-period groundswell, and it’s glassy. The afternoon gets even better—5ft from the SW, period 17 seconds, and the combined energy goes through the roof at 1221. The wind is glassy, and the conditions are excellent for experienced surfers. This is a standout. The swell direction of SW matches the optimum here. Crowds are likely, so get in early.

Saturday 5th September holds some size. The morning has 5ft SW swell, period 14 seconds, and 1016 energy, but the wind is a light cross-shore, putting a little texture on it. The afternoon cleans up with cross-offshore winds and 5ft swell. Sunday 6th September has a glassy afternoon with 4ft SW swell and 812 energy—clean and fun.

But the real fire comes Monday 7th September. The morning has 6ft SSW swell, period 14 seconds, and 1460 energy, with clean cross-offshore winds. The afternoon is even better: 7ft SSW swell, period 14 seconds, 1913 energy, and offshore winds. This is excellent for experienced surfers.

Now, Tuesday 8th September is the big one. The morning has 10ft SSW swell, 15 second period, and a massive 5306 energy. The afternoon peaks at 12ft SSW swell, 15 second period, and 7246 energy—that’s very strong. The wind is offshore and clean. This is exceptional surf, but it’s only for experts. Over 8ft is going to be too much for anyone who isn’t dialed in. The period is 15 seconds, very long, and this is a reef break, so it handles that energy well.

Wednesday 9th September still has size—12ft in the morning, 10ft in the afternoon—but the wind goes cross-shore, and the conditions are marginal.

Thursday 10th September has a glassy afternoon with 5ft SW swell and 1485 energy—clean and excellent for experienced surfers.

After that, the swell drops back. Friday 11th through Sunday 13th September sees 3ft to 4ft waves, mostly clean but with some cross-onshore winds.

But then, Tuesday 15th September lights up again. The morning has 8ft SSW swell, period 16 seconds, 2964 energy, and glassy conditions. The afternoon is 7ft, period 16 seconds, 2359 energy, and glassy. That’s excellent for experienced surfers and a real second-week standout.

From Wednesday 16th to Thursday 17th September, we’ve got 5ft to 8ft SSW swell, with clean afternoons and glassy moments.

The best bet? Friday 4th September afternoon for a solid, clean, long-period swell, and Tuesday 8th September for the expert-level, massive energy. Tuesday 15th September is also promising, but it’s further out, so less certain.
