La Boca Con Con Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Right off the bat, we’ve got a proper pulse of west and west-southwest swell wrapping into La Boca Con Con. It’s a beach and reef setup that’s pretty exposed, and the water’s sitting at 57.2°F with the temp anomaly running normal for this time of year, so nothing out of the ordinary there. This is a beginner-friendly wave, but don’t let that fool you—when the swell kicks, it’s for the experienced lot.

The first standout is Sunday morning, August 2nd. We’ve got a solid 9.8ft of west swell rolling in at 12 seconds with a cross-off ESE breeze at 6 mph. That’s serious energy—combined swell energy is at 2262, which is strong. The waves are going to be powerful and lined up, but at this size, it’s strictly for the skilled crew. The water temp is normal, and the conditions are clean. It’s a big one, but it’s on.

Sunday afternoon goes glassy as the wind drops to nothing, and the swell shifts slightly to the west-southwest at 9.8ft, still at 12 seconds. Energy stays high at 2160. The surf remains excellent for experienced surfers, but don’t expect any easy paddles—this is a heavyweight session.

Monday, August 3rd, the swell backs off to 7.2ft. The morning is cross-shore with a light SW wind, and it’s a bit marginal. The afternoon cleans right up with a glassy west-southwest swell at 3 mph—still 7.2ft and 12 seconds, energy at 1337. It’s better, but not the strongest of the window.

Tuesday eases down to 6.5ft, then 5.9ft by the afternoon. The wind is cross-off from the south-southwest, and it stays clean. It’s a comfortable size, but we’re stepping down from the weekend’s power.

Wednesday morning is looking sweet—glassy, 4.9ft west-southwest swell, and light offshore W wind. That’s a lovely morning for the better surfers. But Wednesday afternoon, the period jumps to 16 seconds with a 7.2ft west-southwest swell. That’s a long-period groundswell, which can make the waves break a bit too straight here at a beach break. It’s more interesting for the reef and point setups, but there’s energy in it (2416). Just be aware it might be a bit walled.

Thursday drops off, with rain showers onshore in the morning, and it’s marginal. The swell is down around 5.2ft and 4.6ft, and it’s not inspiring. Energy is weak too. Friday kicks back up a little—7.2ft morning, but the afternoon gets cross-shore with a moderate breeze. Saturday morning holds at 7.5ft, but the afternoon is where it goes nuts: 11.5ft of south-west swell at 13 seconds, with a fresh 22 mph south wind. That’s huge energy (3932). This is definitely expert-only territory, and the wind is howling. Honestly, at this size and with that wind, it might be more of a kite-surfing day than a paddle session.

Sunday, August 9th, the energy is still there but the swell backs off to 5.2ft in the morning. It’s got a 17-second period and clean cross-off winds—this is a classic long-period groundswell that should offer some beautiful, hollow waves if you can find the right bank. It’s less about size and more about quality. The afternoon picks up to 6.9ft with the period staying long at 15 seconds.

Monday, August 10th, looks like another big one—9.8ft of west-southwest swell at 13 seconds in the morning, with light SE cross-off winds. Combined energy is massive at 4838. This is a standout. It’s powerful, clean, and line-up, but again, only for the experienced. The afternoon drops to 8.2ft, still solid but a bit less critical.

Tuesday, August 11th, we ease into the 6.5ft range again. Morning is cross-shore, but the afternoon cleans up with a light south-southwest wind, 6.9ft at a nice 14 seconds. It’s a solid, fun size.

Then we hit a bit of a lull. Wednesday and Thursday are small—down around 3.6ft to 4.6ft. Energy is in the weak range, and it’s a bit of a flat spell. Friday, August 14th, is still small, 4.3ft to 5.2ft, but the winds are cross-off and clean.

Saturday the 15th is worth a mention—small 4.6ft to 4.9ft but glassy in the afternoon with a 10-second period. Fun for the log or a fish, but not a standout.

The real bright spot comes Sunday, August 16th. We see a 4.9ft west-southwest swell with a 15-second period, and the wind is dead
