The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gonna level with you straight up: the next 16 days are a total flat spell for Le Port. There's nothing on offer, no waves worth paddling out for. The finder shows zero surf recommendations across the entire forecast period, and the numbers back that up—swell energy is mostly zero or single-digit weak readings, with the highest combined energy hitting just 69 on the Friday afternoon, which is still feeble and accompanied by messy winds.
The water is unusually warm, sitting at 83°F on the Thursday morning—that's 9°F above the long-term average for this time of year, which is very unusual. But you won't be in the water for waves. The break itself is "very sheltered" and "rarely breaks" according to guidance, and it shows. Mostly we're looking at flat, glassy conditions from the 20th through the 4th of September. A few tiny bumps pop up—like 3ft SSW swell on Friday 21st morning, but it's got short 6-second period, cross-onshore wind, and the wave comment just says "poor surf conditions." Not worth the drive.
Thursday afternoon the 15th brings a stronger 22 mph cross-on wind with tiny 1ft swell, making it more of a kite session than a paddle. Same story for the 28th and 1st September—strong winds, zero swell. A couple of mornings offer clean, glassy or cross-off conditions, like the 24th and 30th, but there's simply no swell to catch.
This is a classic extended flat spell for a break that rarely breaks anyway. Don't hold your breath—forecasts can change, but right now, it's a two-week holiday for your board. Rusty signing off.

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