The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's break down the next couple of weeks.

I'll be honest with you, this stretch is looking like a total bust for Le Porge. We're looking at a big gap with no real surf until the 28th of July, which is over a week away. Most of the time, we're dealing with tiny, weak swells and onshore winds that are going to turn the ocean into a mess. The water is a balmy 77°, which is way warmer than normal for this time of year. Strange, but it doesn't help the waves.

The first glimpse of something surfable comes on the morning of Tuesday, July 28th. The wind is glassy, absolutely dead calm, which is a huge bonus for clean conditions. The swell is a tiny 3ft from the WNW, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined swell energy is moderate (99), but it’s just enough to make the waves surfable, though very ordinary. It’s a beginner-friendly size, so if you’re just learning, this might be your only window to catch a few. The crowds are "sometimes" a thing, so you might get lucky. The optimum swell direction is from the west, so the WNW is a decent match.

The morning of Wednesday, July 30th looks a little better. Glassy winds again, and the swell is a touch bigger at 3ft, but more importantly, it’s a WNW groundswell with a period of 11 seconds. That longer period means more energy and better-shaped waves. The combined energy is strong (187). It’s still on the small side, but the quality will be noticeably better than the 28th. The direction is a good fit for the break.

That's really it for the whole forecast. If you're itching to get wet, the 30th is your best bet, but set your expectations low. The longer period on the 30th will mean longer breaks between sets, making paddling out easier, but the waves might be a bit straight for the beach. Honestly, for a kite surfer, the afternoons with a fresher breeze and lumpy chop would be more interesting than what's on offer for a paddle surfer.

Rusty.

Information about the Le Porge Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Le Porge provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Le Porge can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Le Porge 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 (Le Porge) 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 Le Porge 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.
