The Lowdown
Alright, let’s cut to the chase. The surf is dead. There’s no other way to say it. We’re looking at a long stretch of flatness, and the only spot with a pulse is Le Port. But even that’s a whisper, not a heartbeat.
The water is warm, though. We’re talking 81° and that’s far warmer than normal for this time of year. If you’re just looking for a swim, it’s perfect. If you’re looking to surf, you’re out of luck.
We kick things off on Wednesday morning with a tiny 1ft of weak, short-period swell from the southwest. The energy is almost non-existent (3). It’s glassy, but there’s no power. The afternoon picks up slightly to 2ft from the south, but the period is still a dismal 4 seconds. Just mushy, gutless waves. Not worth the effort.
Thursday is a write-off. Morning brings a thunderstorm risk and no waves. The afternoon has the wind howling onshore at 12 mph with a pathetic 1ft of slop. Forget it.
From Friday all the way through to the middle of next week, it’s totally flat. Nothing. The swell window is shut, and we’re in for a solid week of clean, empty water. It’s going to test your patience.
There is a tiny spark late on Tuesday the 22nd. The afternoon shows 2ft from the east-southeast with a bit more energy behind it (24). Still short period, still weak, but it’s the best we’ll see. The wind is light and cross-shore, so it might offer a few grovelly rides if you’re keen. But that’s it. Nothing after that.
This spot is so sheltered it doesn’t take much to kill it completely. With the swell this small and coming from the wrong direction, we’re getting nothing. For someone just starting out, it’s a warm place to float around, but for anyone wanting to actually surf, this is a bust. The setup looks more interesting for a kite than a surfboard, to be honest. We’re just waiting for the pattern to shift. Hang in there.

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.
