The Lowdown
G’day, it’s Rusty.
Well, I gotta be straight with you all. The long-range charts are looking as empty as a beach after a shark warning. We have a 16-day forecast with zero on the surf front. Zero. It's a complete and total shutdown.
From Tuesday the 15th right through to the end of the month, it's a wasteland. The ocean is going to be a millpond. The most energy we see in the water all period is a 6 on the 17th, and that’s just a 0.4m pulse at a 5-second period. That isn't a wave, mate, that's a bathtub slosh. A few other days show 0.2m and 0.3m, but they're all short-period wind chop – no power, no push, no shape. With periods of 3 to 5 seconds, the wave breaks and dies right in front of you. We get a few offshore breezes to keep the water glassy, but glassy and flat is still flat.
The water is a very unusual 26° – that’s about 5° warmer than average for this time of year. That is significant, but it's about the only thing that's not flat. So, there are no good surf options in this entire window. Le Port is far too sheltered to pick up any of this non-existent energy, and it’s not going to break. This kind of prolonged flat spell isn’t typical for this area, so things can change, but as it stands, we’re looking at a long, boring stretch. The NE/S winds don't help; they just mess with the already dead water.
Do yourself a favour, don't even bother waxing up. Go for a run, get a tan, and wait for the next proper swell. It’s going to be a while.
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.
