Le Porge Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it’s a pretty flat and frustrating start. The first solid week is essentially a write-off with tiny, weak swell and often messy wind. We’re talking days of waves under 2 feet with poor surf quality, and a lot of cross or onshore wind. You’ll be staring at a lake for the first few days, and the pattern doesn’t really improve much until we get into the last week of July.

The only real standout in this whole outlook is a brief window on Tuesday morning, July 28th at Le Porge. Swell is a modest 4 feet from the NW, but the period is a solid 9 seconds, so it’ll have a bit of push. The key here is the wind: glassy, with an ESE breeze at just 3 mph. That’s going to put a clean, smooth face on the waves. The combined energy is moderate (176), so there’s enough to get into. It’s a beginner-friendly spot, and with that glass, it’s the only real chance for a proper session. Expect crowds possible though, as everyone will be onto it.

Then we drift into another long, flat gap. The end of the month and start of August just doesn’t offer much. There’s a tiny, glassy window on Friday morning, July 31st with 2 feet of WNW swell, but it’s weak energy (85) and ordinary. Another brief moment on Monday morning, August 3rd shows 3 feet of WNW with glassy conditions, but again, the combined energy is only moderate (115). It’s surfable, but nothing to write home about. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing wild.

So, to sum it up: you’ve got one real shot on the 28th. The rest is a long, flat grind. It’s the kind of run that’s typical for this area when it goes quiet. Don’t get too down – forecasts can always shift, but right now, you’re better off cleaning the wax off your board and waiting.

Rusty.
