The Lowdown

Hey, it’s Rusty with the imperial version of the same outlook.

First few days at Le Porge are a dud – choppy, cross-onshore, and not worth the hassle. Nothing doing until Friday the 18th.

That Friday morning offers up clean, 4ft waves with light cross-offshore breeze and moderate energy (261). Not a classic, but a good warm-up.

The real standout is Monday the 21st. That morning brings 5ft of clean WNW groundswell, 13-second period, gentle offshore wind, and strong energy (663). The water is way warmer than normal for mid-September, so you’ll be comfy in a shorty. This is your session – consistent, punchy, and clean.

Tuesday the 22nd morning looks glassy with 3ft groundswell and 12-second period (369 energy). It’s mellow but clean.

From Wednesday the 23rd, the surf drops away fast. By Thursday the 24th, we’re looking at tiny waves under 2ft and weak energy. That flat spell lasts a few days, until Sunday the 27th when a stronger swell returns, but the wind is more moderate, making it a bit of a gamble.

Takeaway: Don’t miss Monday the 21st. That’s the highlight.

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.
