Alright, Rusty here, giving you the lowdown in feet and degrees.
I gotta be honest, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty bleak for La Boya. This is a reef that needs a clean south swell and decent wind, but the forecast is all weak, short-period windswell from the east and southeast. The wave energy is low, like values under 200 early on, which just isn't enough to get anything going here.
We're staring at a long, dry stretch from now all the way to the 19th of July. The wind is almost always cross-onshore or onshore, which is gonna mess up the surface. The swell period is a poor 8 seconds or less, so the waves will be weak and crumbly. The water temp is about 84°, pretty normal for this time of year, so at least you won't need a wetsuit.
The only possible session pops on the morning of Sunday, July 19th. The combined swell energy bumps up to (580) with a 6-foot swell from the ESE, still a short period. The wind will be a light east breeze, cross-onshore but light enough to keep the surface okay. The report calls it "marginal," and with that short period, it'll be lumpy, but it's the only time in the whole 16 days that even looks possible. Crowds are sometimes an issue here, but with it being this inconsistent, you might have the place to yourself.
Other than that one morning, it's a total bust. The swell dies again right after. Not the news you want to hear, but that's the story.
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.
