Boat Harbour is a surf spot that's known for its sketchy and inconsistent waves. It’s located in a scenic area and is a favorite among local surfers when it’s firing. The spot really comes to life with a NorthEast swell, and the best conditions usually happen with SouthWest winds. However, don't expect it to break all the time; it can be pretty rare to see good waves here.

The waves at Boat Harbour break as a righthander over a rock ledge, making for some challenging conditions. It typically handles swell sizes around 3ft (about 1 meter), and the optimal tide to catch those waves is during mid to high tide. You’ll need to be an expert to handle the super-shallow breaks and the air drops into the square-floored barrels that this spot can produce. Bodyboarders often enjoy the waves here, given the wave type and shape.

Keep in mind that when you're out at Boat Harbour, there are some sharp rocks to watch out for, especially if you’re jumping off the shelf to get into the lineup. Also, be aware of boats in the channel as you surf. It’s a spot that requires attention and skill, so come prepared!
