The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' to you from the beach. I've been staring at the charts for the next couple of weeks, and I gotta be straight with you—it's a tough stretch for Le Port.
The big picture here is pretty grim. We're looking at a solid 16-day run with almost nothing on the table. The swell is basically non-existent. We're talking about a few tiny, weak pulses that barely register, and the rest of the time it's flat. The first real action, if you can call it that, shows up on the morning of Tuesday, August 4th, with a tiny 1ft swell from the ENE, but it's got a period of only 3 seconds and the combined energy is a measly (3). That's windswell junk, and with a cross-shore wind, it's just not worth paddling out for. The whole forecast is like this—little blips of energy that are too small, too short-period, and blown out. We see a bit of glassy calm on the 5th, 6th, and 7th, but the swell is completely gone, with zero energy.
This spot, Le Port, is a very sheltered setup that rarely breaks, and this forecast is a perfect example of why. The swell is too small and from the wrong direction to wrap in properly. The best conditions we see are glassy, but there's simply no wave to surf. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, but that's a small comfort when there's nothing to ride.
Honestly, if you're looking to paddle, this is a write-off. There's a gap of several days at a stretch with zero recommendations. The setup looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, as we get some moderate breezes without any real surf to mess them up. The only real "standout" is the glassy water on the 7th and 12th, but with no swell, it's just a flat lake. Long-range, things don't get any better. We're looking at the same pattern right through to August 19th. It's a blank run, and for this area, it's a normal part of the season. Forecasts can change, but for now, I'd keep the board in the car.
That's the situation. Better luck next time.
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.
