La Boca Con Con Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s look at what’s coming. La Boca Con Con is in for a solid run of southwest groundswell over the next couple of weeks, with mostly favorable winds. This break is very consistent, exposed to the swell, and the best direction is from the west, so it’s going to be working a lot. It’s a beginner-friendly wave, but when the swell goes over 2.5m, that’s expert territory only. Water temperature is about normal for this time of year.

We start on Tuesday, August 4th, with a 7ft WSW swell, 12-second period, and a light cross-off breeze from the south. The water is clean, and the combined energy is 1259 – that’s moderate to strong. This is a very good start. The afternoon holds 6ft, still clean.

Wednesday the 5th brings a bigger 7ft swell, but the wind turns onshore from the WNW. The energy jumps to 1715, but the quality is questionable. Thursday the 6th is a standout morning: 8ft SW swell, period dropping to 10 seconds, but the wind is a clean 15 km/h cross-off from the south. The energy is 1904, and it’s excellent for experienced surfers. This is a big day, not for the timid. The afternoon gets windier.

Friday the 7th is still clean with 5ft to 5ft SW swell, but the energy is dropping (596 and 531), and the period shortens. A good session, but not the best.

Saturday the 8th is a true standout. The morning delivers 8ft SW swell with a 14-second period, cross-off from the south at 10 km/h, and a massive combined energy of 2557. Clean conditions, and it’s an excellent call for experienced surfers. The long period means this is a powerful groundswell – it’ll hold up well at this exposed spot. The afternoon is windier, but the morning is the pick.

Sunday the 9th keeps the 8ft SW swell going, period 13 seconds, energy 2874, and another clean morning. This is a fantastic weekend of solid surf. Monday the 10th is still pumping with 7ft SW swell and 13-second period, cross-off wind, and energy at 1499 – another excellent morning for experienced surfers.

The swell drops mid-week to around 5ft to 4ft on Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th, but the period lengthens – up to 19 seconds on Wednesday morning. That’s very long-period groundswell, but the wave height is small (1ft), and the energy is 360. It’ll be clean but not much to ride.

The second week keeps the SW swell alive, with a notable return of size on Saturday, August 15th. The morning shows 7ft from the WSW with a 13-second period, cross-shore wind, and energy of 1597. It’s a cleaner option. Then on Monday, August 17th, we get a cracking morning: 5ft SW swell with an 18-second period, cross-off wind, and energy of 2467. That’s a very long-period groundswell and excellent for experienced surfers. The afternoon holds 5ft at 17 seconds. This is a promising long-range window, but it’s over a week away, so less certain – still, the signs are strong.

Overall, the first weekend (Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th) is the prime time. Big, clean, powerful SW swell with light offshore winds. Grab it if you can. Crowds are possible at this spot, so get in early.
