The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next 16 days are a proper drought for surf. There’s almost nothing on the cards, and I’m not going to sugarcoat it. Le Port is a very sheltered setup, and it’s rarely breaking to begin with, so this blank run is more the norm for this spot than a surprise. You’re looking at a long stretch of tiny, weak, or flat conditions.
The water temperature is sitting at 82°F – that’s far warmer than normal for this time of year, a real anomaly that’s over 9°F above the long-term average, so it’s going to feel like a bath.
The first couple of days, Friday 17th and Saturday 18th of July, are pretty much flat. There’s a tiny 0.3 ft SE swell on Saturday morning with a super short 6-second period, and the combined energy is only 1 (weak). It’s glassy early, but the wave is barely there. It’s not worth paddling for.
We get a minor bump on Sunday 19th July morning: a 1 ft swell from the ENE, but the period is only 3 seconds. That’s just wind chop, not real surf. The combined energy is a pathetic 3. It’s glassy, zero wind, but the waves are too small and messy.
The rest of the week through to the end of July is a rinse and repeat of tiny, weak swells. The best of a bad lot is Wednesday 22nd July afternoon, when we see a 2 ft ESE swell with a 5-second period, and the combined energy hits 37 (still weak). The wind is cross-shore, so it’s crossed up. It’s still poor.
Nothing else in the entire 16-day window pushes above 1 ft, and the combined energy never gets anywhere near moderate. A few mornings are glassy, but with next to no swell, it’s just a flat lake.
The standouts? There are none. This is a total write-off for surfing. If you’re desperate for a splash, the glassy mornings on the 19th, 20th, 25th, 27th, 30th, or 31st of July, and 1st of August, might give you a tiny, unbroken ripple, but don’t expect to ride anything. Honestly, the setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer given the wind and lack of waves.
Stay patient, keep an eye on the forecasts, but this one’s a hard pass. 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.
