Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on offer at Pors Ar Ville.
To be straight with you, the next two weeks look pretty grim for a proper paddle. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing good here. The first recommendation for a surf doesn't show up until July 21st, so we’re looking at a dry spell of nearly two weeks with no good waves to speak of.
We start off the first week with tiny, weak swell and poor wind conditions. The biggest early swell we see is around 3 ft on Monday the 6th from the WNW with a period of 9 seconds, but the combined energy is a weak 106 (moderate wave energy) and it’s called "poor surf conditions". It just doesn’t come together. There’s some glassy conditions Monday morning with no wind and the water is sitting at 63°, which is about a degree and a half warmer than usual for this time of year – a slight positive, but not enough to save the surf. The rest of that week and into the next is a mix of tiny waves, strong winds, and lumpy conditions. A lot of the time the wind is onshore or cross-onshore, trashing any chance of a clean face.
Now, if you're a kite surfer, you might have some fun from around the 13th when the wind really picks up to 28 mph from the ENE, but for a surfer it’s a no-go.
The only real standout, and I mean the only one, is on July 21st. Tuesday morning brings in a burst of energy from the NW. We’ve got 5 ft swell with a short period of 7 seconds, but the combined energy jumps up to 227 (strong wave energy). The wind is cross-offshore from the WNW at 12 mph, which should keep things clean. It’s not the longest period or the best quality, and it’s marked as marginal, so you’ll want to be an experienced local who knows the sandbanks. The afternoon builds to 6 ft with the same wind, and the energy hits 340 (strong wave energy). That’s as good as it gets over this whole forecast period. With short period like that, it’s going to be a bit fat and dumpy on the bank, but for a little burst it’s all we’ve got.
The rest of July 21st aside, the outlook is a wasteland until then. It’s a long wait.
