The Lowdown
Alright, let’s look at what’s on offer for Pors Ar Ville (France) in the next couple of weeks.
First off, I’ve gotta tell you, it’s gonna be a slow start. We’re looking at a 10-day stretch with hardly anything worth paddling out for. The water temp is about what you’d expect for this time of year.
For the first week and a half, it’s mostly tiny waves with onshore wind. Heights are barely 1ft for days, then creep up to 4ft by Sunday the 26th. Swell energy is low to moderate, between 9 and 155. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, so it’s gonna be choppy. That Sunday the 26th has a clean window with a 4ft WNW swell and cross-offshore wind, but the period is short at 7 seconds, so the waves will be a bit weak and fat.
Through the end of July and into August, the swell picks up a little, with heights around 3ft to 5ft, but the wind is still mostly onshore until the morning of the 31st, when a moderate offshore breeze from the SSW cleans things up. The swell is still small though, only 3ft, and the energy is weak at 97.
The real standout is the morning of Sunday, August 2nd. We’ve got a 4ft swell from the WNW with a 9-second period, clean cross-offshore wind from the WNW, and the swell energy hits 216 (moderate). That’s the session to aim for. It’s not huge, but for an exposed beach and reef setup like Pors Ar Ville, the conditions look good. It’s a consistent spot, and with the clean wind, it’ll be fun.
After that, it fades again. The swell drops, the energy goes down, and we’re back to small, weak surf.
So, here’s the plan: save your energy for Sunday morning, August 2nd. It’s not a monster swell, but it’ll be clean and give you some decent waves. The rest of the time, you’re mostly sitting on the beach watching.
