The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for our local patch.
Well, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this is a tough run. We’re looking at a solid block of nothing for the first week and a half. From Friday 14 August right through to the morning of Tuesday 25 August, there’s just no surf worth paddling out for. That’s a long, flat spell, and it’s gonna feel like the ocean’s holding its breath. A few tiny ripples show up here and there, but nothing that’d get you out of bed.
The only glimmer of hope, and I mean the *only* one, lands on Tuesday 25 August. Le Port sees a little pulse of energy. The morning brings a 3ft swell out of the SSW, with a period of 5 seconds. That’s a short-period windswell, so it’s not gonna have much grunt behind it, but combined energy is a weak 47. Still, the wind is light and offshore from the WNW, which means the surface will be clean. That’s a real positive for a break that’s very sheltered. The afternoon sees the swell drop to 3ft, but the wind swings around to a strong 16 mph cross-shore, which will mess up the face. The morning session is the only window here.
Now, a word on the water. For this spot, the water temperature is sitting at 84°F with a 5°F anomaly. That’s *much* warmer than what’s normal for this time of year, so you’ll be in for a bath.
Le Port is a very sheltered spot, and it only rarely breaks. The crowds are said to be a possibility, but with surf this marginal, I wouldn’t stress about company. The best case here is a quick, clean morning session on the 25th, but don’t expect much. For the rest of the 16-day window, it’s a write-off.
This is 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.
