Alright, let’s get into it. Lookin’ at the forecast for Le Porge, and honestly, it’s a bit of a slow burn for the next week or so. There’s not much to get excited about, but we do have a bit of a sneaky window way out at the end of the run.

The water right now is a whopping 75° – that’s way warmer than you’d expect for this time of year, so you’ll be comfy in a shorty or even trunks if you’re tough enough.

The first real standout doesn’t even show up until Monday, the 20th of July. That morning, we’ll see a clean 4ft swell out of the WNW with a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the NE. The combined energy is moderate at 192, and it’s clean. It’s not a monster, but after all the tiny, choppy stuff we’ve been looking at, that’s a proper surfable morning for a beginner-friendly spot. The crowds are sometimes an issue here, so expect a few others with the same idea.

Then, we skip ahead to the real highlight. Sunday, the 26th of July, is the one to circle. Early morning, the wind goes glassy light from the east, turning offshore. The swell is a solid 4ft from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds, and the energy is strong at 281. That’s a clean, punchy wave for a beach break – perfect for a grovelly log or a fish. It’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it, but that’s the best on offer.

The 25th of July gets a fair bit of size – 7ft on Saturday morning – but the wind is onshore and messy, so it’s a blown-out mess. That’s one for the experts only, and even then, it’s not going to be pretty. For the average punter, that’s a day to stay home.

So, bottom line: a whole lot of nothing for the first week, then a clean Monday morning on the 20th, and a promising glassy Sunday on the 26th. That’s your window.

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.
