Le Porge Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break down this Le Porge forecast in terms you can feel. It's a quiet stretch, no doubt about it.

We're lookin' at a long, dry spell right from the start. Through the first week of August, it's a total write-off. The swell is tiny, wind is mostly cross-onshore and messy, and the wave energy is pathetic – barely hitting triple digits. It's all poor surf conditions. A real bummer.

That dry spell finally breaks around Thursday, August 6th. The morning offers a tiny 1-foot swell from the west, but the wind goes glassy. That's a huge plus. The energy is still weak, but when it's that clean, you might snag a little knee-high roller. It's surfable, but nothing special.

Then we go quiet again. The next real chance is Monday, August 10th. Another glassy morning, this time with a northwest swell pushing 2 to 3 feet. The energy is still modest, and the period is short, so it'll be a bit weak and crumbly, but the clean conditions make it the best of a very average bunch. If you're keen, that's your window.

Then Tuesday, August 11th morning, offers a tiny 2-foot west swell with a light cross-offshore breeze. The wind keeps it tidy, but the size is tiny. It's another small, clean day.

The standouts, if you can call 'em that, are definitely the Thursday 6th and Monday 10th mornings. The glassy wind on the 6th is a rare treat, but the swell is pitiful. The 10th has a touch more size and is still clean. For the rest of the outlook, it's a whole lot of nothing. The wave energy is in the double digits for most of the period, which tells you the ocean is just taking a nap.

The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no shock there. The break itself is a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent beach break, so when there's nothing, it's a real bummer, but that's how it goes sometimes.

Rusty.
