The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on offer for Pors Ar Ville over the next couple of weeks. I won't lie to ya, this one's a bit of a slow burner. The swell window's open to the WNW which is what this spot wants, but we've got a lot of small, weak days to get through before anything with a bit of punch shows up.

Right now, and for a good stretch, it's pretty quiet. We're looking at a long run of days where the waves just aren't doing much. There's a little bump of energy Tuesday the 27th with some clean offshore wind, but the swell's tiny at only 2ft from the W. Not really enough to get excited about.

We finally see some life around Friday the 28th. Morning sees a 3ft WNW swell pushing through, with the combined energy hitting a moderate 197. The wind's clean and cross-off, so the shape should be alright. This is about the first time you could actually get a few decent turns in.

The real standout window shapes up over the weekend of the 29th and 30th. Saturday the 29th morning is looking promising but the swell's short period and a bit raw at 5ft and 7 seconds. The energy's ramping up though, hitting 280. By the afternoon, it jumps to 7ft and a whopping 512 combined energy, which is strong stuff. This will be powerful, but with a period of only 8 seconds, it'll be a bit of a bumpy, shifty beast. This is expert territory for sure. The wind is cross-offshore, so it'll be clean, but it's a lot of water moving around for a beach and reef setup.

Sunday the 30th morning still has some size at 4ft, and we get a glassy offshore wind from the SSW. The period drops back to 7 seconds though, so it's still messy. The energy is moderate at 169.

After that, it backs right off again. There's another little pulse on Monday the 31st, but it's short period and inconsistent.

Then, looking way down the line, we get a bit of a gift on Sunday the 6th of September. The afternoon session looks clean with a 4ft WNW swell, a period of 9 seconds, and a combined energy of 212. The wind is light and cross-off. This is the most well-rounded surf of the whole outlook: solid size, better period, and clean conditions. It's a long way out, so keep an eye on it, but it's the one to pencil in.

To be honest, for the majority of this outlook, the conditions are poor and the waves are tiny. There's a lot of waiting around. The standout is the Sunday afternoon on the 6th of September. It's the most promising call for a proper session. The Saturday the 29th is for experts only with that heavy, short-period swell.

Rusty.
