Stormrider Description
Just south of the lighthouse of Cap Rhir, a washed-up ship boiler gives its name to this consistent and powerful righthander. Vertical lips and speed walls are held up by funnelling trade winds, bouncing off the hills.
Experts only as it's tricky getting in and out because of the urchins and sharp rock shelf. Try the keyhole from behind the large rock to the N. Always bigger than Tarhazoute so it's often crowded.

Local Knowledge
Boilers is a great spot for the more advanced surfer, with a long wall and hollow sections. This spot has a high off shore wind rate due to the fact of the northerly or southerly winds wrapping up or down the coast and getting plundered onto boilers with the large cliffs surrounding it. This spot needs a large northerly swell to work or a medium NW swell. The bottom is very shallow and all rock. Be careful when entering and exiting and be sure to wear boots due to their being lots of urchins.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
