The Lowdown
Alright, grab a coffee, this is gonna be a tough one. I’m looking at Pors Ar Ville (beach and reef, advanced) and the next couple weeks are pretty much a write‑off. The water’s sitting at about 63.5°, which is normal for the time of year. But the surf? Flat. Real flat.
From today, July 16, right through to July 26, it’s all poor surf conditions. Nothing doing. Onshore winds, tiny scraps of swell, no energy. You’d be wasting your time even checking the cam. Even though this spot is usually consistent, this stretch is a dead zone.
Then on July 27 Monday morning, there’s a tiny glimmer. We’ve got a 3.6 ft swell from the WNW, period 8 seconds, combined energy 157 – that’s moderate, not huge. The wind is light cross‑off from the WNW at 9 mph so it’ll be clean. It’s the only period in the whole 16 days that even gets a “surfable” nod, but it’s still very ordinary. The waves will be small and a bit weak, and the break can get crowded sometimes. If you’re desperate, you could scratch out a few waves, but don’t expect much.
After that Monday morning, it’s back to poor conditions. The rest of the month is
