La Boca Con Con Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for La Boca Con Con. The water’s sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, 58°, so that’s a nice little bonus.

We’re in for a bit of a slow start, but the first real call to get wet is Wednesday afternoon, September 2nd. The swell is small, only 2 ft, but it’s a long-period groundswell from the SW at 18 seconds, and the combined energy is moderate (420). The wind is a light cross-offshore breeze, so the waves will be clean. Not a standout, but a good way to ease into the week.

The real highlight of the whole outlook comes on Saturday afternoon, September 5th. The swell drops to 3 ft, but the period jumps back to 18 seconds from the SW, and the combined energy ramps up strong to 1377. The wind is a gentle cross-offshore breeze, making for clean, lined-up waves. This is the best on offer – a classic groundswell with great shape, perfect for a longboard or a funboard. The 3 ft size is user-friendly, but with that long period, it’ll have plenty of push.

Before that, Friday morning, September 4th is worth a mention. You’ll find 4 ft from the WSW with a 13-second period, and again a gentle cross-offshore wind. The energy is moderate (925), and conditions should be very good. It’s a solid option if you can’t wait for Saturday.

Saturday morning, September 5th is a bit of a mixed bag. The swell is 6 ft from the SW, but the period is a short 8 seconds, and the wind is a light cross-shore. The energy is strong (1194), but that short period won’t give you the best shape. It’s rideable, but not as good as the afternoon.

From Sunday, September 6th through to the middle of the second week, it’s a bit of a lull. The swell hangs around 4 ft to 5 ft, mostly with periods between 10 and 14 seconds, but the wind is often cross-onshore or light, so the quality is just okay. There are a few clean windows, like Tuesday afternoon, September 8th (3 ft, 13 seconds, cross-off) and Wednesday afternoon, September 9th (3 ft, 14 seconds, cross-off), but they’re small and not going to blow your mind.

Looking further out, Sunday morning, September 13th and Monday morning, September 14th both show 5 ft from the WSW with 11 seconds, clean with a light cross-off wind. The energy is moderate (663 and 574). These are promising, but keep in mind it’s long-range, so things could change.

The final note is a real treat: Thursday morning, September 17th goes glassy. The wind is completely calm, with a 3 ft SSW groundswell at 13 seconds. That’s a rare, mirror-like morning for the loggers. The energy is moderate (425).

Be aware, La Boca Con Con can get crowded sometimes, so for the Saturday standout, get there early.

This is Rusty, signing off.
