The Lowdown
Right, grab a seat. Rusty here, and I’ve been staring at the charts for your neck of the woods. I’ve got to be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’re looking at a 16-day window, but honestly, there’s nothing good to chase. Not a single recommendation worth paddling out for.
The whole stretch from Saturday the 1st of August right through to Sunday the 16th of August is a write-off. The wave energy is pitiful – you’ll see values of 0, 1, 2, maybe a sniff of 21 on one morning, but it’s all from tiny, weak, short-period windswells. The swell periods are mostly 3 to 6 seconds, which is just noise. There’s no power, no push.
Let’s look at the only spot we’ve got: Le Port. It’s a very sheltered break, and it rarely breaks as it is. The water temperature is sitting at 83°, which is a whopping 9° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual, like swimming in a warm bath. But that’s the only interesting thing going on.
The wind is often glassy or light, which is nice, but it doesn’t matter because there’s nothing to ride. On a few mornings, like Sunday the 2nd and Monday the 3rd, it’s dead calm or glassy, but the swell is either flat or a pathetic 1.0ft from the ESE with a period of just 3 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 2 (read: weak). The best we see all week is a tiny 2ft NE swell on the morning of Monday the 10th, giving a combined energy of 21 (still weak), but the direction is all wrong for a break that wants SE swell. It’s a no-go.
After that, it’s back to nothing. A few tiny 1ft blips on the 15th and 16th, but with onshore winds and periods of 4-5 seconds, it’s just messy.
This is one of those blank runs that’s normal for a super-sheltered spot like this when there’s no big swell pushing in. The forecasts can change, but for now, save your energy. The boards can stay in the shed.
Rusty.

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.
Le Port is 1 km (1 miles) from Menton. If you plan a holiday in Cote d'Azur, look for hotels and other accommodation in Menton. Menton has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
