Table - best surf conditions forecast for Le Porge over the next 16 days.


Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it. We're looking at a pretty lean run at Le Porge for the next 16 days. The pattern is clear: small, weak swell and unfriendly winds dominate the forecast, so don't be expecting much to get you out of bed.

The water is much warmer than normal for this time of year at 73°F for the first session mentioned, sitting about 5°F above average. That's a notable warmth.

Right from the start, it's a tough go. The first week is littered with small waves, most between 2ft and 3ft. The wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, with a few brief windows of cleaner conditions that are still tiny. The one little highlight, if you can call it that, is Sunday morning, the 12th. We get a clean, cross-offshore breeze from the SE at 9 mph making for some tidy-looking conditions on a 2ft swell. The combined energy is weak at 50, but it's the only real chance for a clean wave that isn't blown out or chopped up. Don't expect much push, but it's the pick of a very ordinary bunch.

Then there's a big gap. From that Sunday afternoon right through the following week and into the next, it's just poor surf conditions. The swell stays tiny, rarely scraping above 3ft, and the winds grow stronger and more onshore. The energy stays weak to moderate at best, with a brief blip to 132 on the 17th, but the wind is straight onshore at 12 mph, so it's a mess.

Looking further out into the second week, the pattern doesn't change. Winds kick up to 15-19 mph from the NNW and NW, with small cross-onshore or cross swell barely hitting 3ft. The period is short (6-8 seconds), so it's all windswell and chop. The surf is basically unsurfable throughout the entire period. For a break that's fairly consistent, this is a rare, blank stretch. It tends not to stay this flat for long, so forecasts can shift, but right now, there's simply nothing on offer. You'd be better off finding something else to do for the next two weeks.

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.
