The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here again. I'm looking at the same picture, just in feet and Fahrenheit. And the story's the same – a long, dry stretch at Pors Ar Ville.
We've got a massive gap with no real surf to speak of. From now until nearly the end of July, it's tiny. The wave energy is almost nothing, under 30 (weak). We're talking knee-high slop of 0.7ft to 1ft from the WNW. The wind offers a few clean moments, like the afternoon of the 25th with a clean cross-off breeze, but with no swell, it's a waste.
The only real pulse comes on Sunday the 26th. We get a 6ft to 7ft WNW swell, pushing the energy to 286 (moderate). That's decent power, but the period is short at 7 to 8 seconds, so it's gonna be soft and lumpy. A 20 km/h cross-shore wind means it'll be choppy. It's a session for experienced surfers only.
Monday the 27th is the best shot, with a 6ft NW swell (energy at 572 – moderate) in the morning. Still a short period and a cross-shore wind, but if you're an advanced surfer and you're jonesing, this is the time to get wet.
After that, it fades fast. By Tuesday the 28th, it's back to 4ft, and the energy drops. The rest of the run into early August is back to small, weak surf. Even a glassy morning on the 2nd of August with 2ft swell doesn't save it – there's just no push.
Bottom line: there's no true standout here. The biggest swell on the 26th and 27th is too short-period and wind-affected to be truly good. For beginners, that 6ft swell is way too much. It's a long wait on the beach for better days.
Water temps are about 64°, which is normal for the season. Pors Ar Ville is an exposed spot, and right now it's giving us nothing. We're at the mercy of the next proper swell.
Rusty.
