Le Porge Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s break it down. For the next 16 days at Le Porge, the surf is looking pretty bleak. There’s a long stretch of flat, poor conditions, and only a few brief moments where you might want to get wet. The first real chance doesn’t come until the morning of the 22nd.

The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing to write home about.

The one window that’s worth a look is the morning of Saturday the 22nd. The wind is blowing straight offshore from the east, cleaning things up nicely. You’ll have a 3ft swell from the WNW, with a 9-second period, and the combined energy is 151. It’s surfable, but it’s nothing special. The break is fairly consistent, but expect company. For a beginner-friendly spot, this is your best bet.

After that, it’s a long dry spell. The swell drops to 1ft, then 1ft, with periods of 7 seconds and less. The energy is nothing, well under 100. The wind is mostly offshore or cross-off, but there’s simply no wave to ride. This flat period runs from the 23rd through the 25th, and honestly, it doesn’t get much better until the 5th of September.

There’s a pulse on the 28th of August, with a 8ft swell from the west and massive energy (1373–1401), but it’s a total mess. The wind is strong onshore from the WSW, ruining any chance of a clean wave. That’s only for experts, and even then, it’s a battle.

The last flicker is on the morning of the 5th of September. Clean offshore easterly wind, a 3ft swell from the WNW with a 9-second period, and energy at 190. It’s very ordinary, but the conditions will be clean. It’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it, but don’t hold your breath.

It’s a rough run. The area goes flat like this pretty often, so don’t panic. The 22nd morning is the only real shot, and it’s a small one.

Rusty.
