La Boca Con Con Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s get the lowdown on what’s happening out there.

The ocean is alive with a solid push of energy coming in from the WSW. The water is about 57°F, which is pretty normal for this time of year.

We’re kicking off with a beauty on Wednesday afternoon, the 26th, at La Boca Con Con. It’s glassy, with a bit of light rain, and a 6ft WSW swell at 12 seconds. The combined energy is 872 (moderate). That’s a clean, fun wave for a beginner-friendly spot that’s very consistent. Perfect conditions for a long, smooth session.

Thursday morning, the 27th, the swell jumps up to 12ft from the WSW with a 14-second period. The energy is massive at 5078 (very strong). That’s a serious amount of water moving. The wind is cross-on, which makes it bumpy and messy. This is expert-only territory with that size and power. Not a day for the faint of heart.

Friday the 28th stays cross-on with 8ft swell, still a bit lumpy. Saturday morning, the 29th, is another glassy highlight with a clean 6ft WSW swell at 12 seconds (1033 energy). That’s a perfect size for La Boca, and the surface will be like glass. The afternoon switches to a clean cross-off breeze with 6ft swell.

Sunday the 30th through Monday the 31st sees the swell drop to 5ft and then 4ft. The wind stays clean, but the energy fades. Monday afternoon gets a moderate breeze, so don’t expect magic.

From Tuesday the 1st of September to Thursday the 3rd, we hit a lull. Swell drops to 4ft and even 2ft on Wednesday afternoon with a very long 17-second period. That long period at a beach break can be a bit tricky—it’s prone to closing out. The energy is low (395-637). It’s not a total loss, but it’s quiet.

Then the ocean wakes up again. Friday morning, the 4th of September, is glassy with a clean 5ft WSW swell at 13 seconds. A solid return. But the real standout for the second week is Monday the 7th of September. The afternoon is rated excellent for experienced surfers. We’ve got a 5ft SW swell at 16 seconds, with a clean cross-off breeze. The combined energy is 1451. That’s a proper groundswell with tons of power. The long period (16 sec) means it’ll have shape and punch, but it might be a bit straight for the beachbreak—it’ll work best if you find a good bank. For the experienced crew, this is the one.

Wednesday the 9th of September afternoon is also a good call: glassy again with a 6ft SW swell at 13 seconds and nearly 1000 energy. Another clean, fun session.

After that, the swell fades into the 10th with smaller waves and cross-on wind.

So, the two sessions to lock in: Wednesday afternoon the 26th of August for the clean, glassy fun, and Monday the 7th of September for the experienced surfers looking for power and clean lines. The consistency is good, so you’ll find waves most days, but those are the standouts.

Rusty.
