The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is one of those outlooks where you might be better off tuning up your board or cleaning the wax off your fins, because there’s next to nothing on the cards for the next 16 days at Le Port.
Over the whole period from now through Sunday, September 20th, the swell stays tiny to non-existent. We’re looking at occasional dribbles of swell around 0.7ft to 1ft, with periods so short – 2 to 4 seconds – that they barely have any push. The combined swell energy is basically zero, often reading (0) or at best (3), which is very weak energy. Honestly, the water will be flat more often than not.
For the first week, from September 5th into the 12th, there are only a few mornings with clean conditions thanks to light offshore or cross-off breezes, but with no swell to ride, it’s just pretty water. By September 6th (Sunday morning) we get a glassy window, but with only 0.7ft of swell from the ESE and a period of 3 seconds, you’d be lucky to find a ripple. The same story repeats through the following week: clean mornings on September 11th, 12th, and 13th, but still nothing surfable.
Even into the second week, from September 15th onward, the pattern holds. Tuesday the 15th morning has a light offshore wind from the WNW and clean conditions, but again, zero swell. The rest of the week and into the 20th offers only light breezes and clean or glassy moments, but the ocean just won’t cooperate.
Le Port is a very sheltered, rarely breaks spot, and this run of poor surf is pretty normal for the area. When you’re this protected, you need a very specific swell direction from the SE to line up, and we just aren’t getting any decent energy. No standout days, no real options. If you’re desperate for a paddle, bring a longboard and low expectations. Otherwise, sit this one out.
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.
