The Lowdown
Rusty here again. Let’s break this down in feet and degrees.
Honestly, mate, the next 16 days are a total dud for La Boya. I’m seeing nothing worth paddling out for. The whole stretch is plagued with onshore winds and weak, short-period windswell. The combined swell energy barely gets into the moderate range, peaking at 467 (moderate wave energy) on September 10th, but the wind is howling onshore and the surf quality is shot. The first noticeable bump comes around September 9th with waves around 5ft to 6ft from the SE, but it’s all onshore, turning it into a messy, blown-out heap. After that, it’s mostly knee-to-waist high slop with constant onshore breezes. The best you might get is the morning of September 11th with a light cross-onshore wind and 5ft of SE swell, but it’s still not clean. For a reef break like La Boya that needs a clean S swell, this is a nightmare. This kind of dead stretch is pretty normal for this spot. Don’t get your hopes up, but you never know when the forecast might flip.

Information about the La Boya Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Boya provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Boya can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Boya surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (La Boya) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for La Boya may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
