The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what the next couple of weeks are serving up for us.
It’s going to be a pretty grim stretch, I gotta be honest. Right from the start of the outlook, we’ve got a run of poor surf conditions that stretches on for days. The first few days are a write-off, and the pattern just doesn't let up. There’s a big gap here where it's just not worth paddling out.
La Boya, the main reef we’re looking at, is the only spot in the picture. The water temp is running a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, sitting at 86°, which is about one degree Fahrenheit above average.
Thursday the 10th kicks things off, and it’s a mess. You’ve got a risk of thunderstorms with a cross-onshore ESE wind at 12 mph, chopping up a 4 ft swell. The energy is weak. Just nasty. That theme sticks through the weekend. Friday the 11th sees a bump in swell height to 5 ft, but with a cross-onshore breeze and the combined energy still moderate, the “poor surf conditions” label says it all. The swell is coming from the ESE and SE, which is onshore for this reef, and the period is short, between 7 and 8 seconds. This setup honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than for a proper paddle session.
The onshore wind pattern just doesn’t let go. All the way through the middle of next week, it's the same story: onshore or cross-onshore wind, short-period swell, and “poor surf conditions” plastered all over the forecast. The swell energy peaks a bit around Saturday 12th with 5 ft and moderate energy, but it’s still a messy cross-onshore chop. There’s no standout window of clean conditions at all.
By the second week, from around Wednesday the 16th onwards, things start to fizzle out even more. The swell drops off consistently. By the time we get to Monday the 22nd, we’re looking at tiny 3 ft swell with very weak energy. The period drops to 6 seconds by that point. The last few days of the outlook, right up to Friday the 25th, are flat and weak, with swells down to 2 ft and almost no energy.
Honestly, this is a blank run. There’s nothing to get excited about. For this area, a stretch this poor is more normal than not. Forecasts can change, but right now, I'd say save your energy and wait for a better window.
Rusty.

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.
