The Lowdown

Alright, grab your wettie and listen up. Rusty here.

First up, I gotta be straight with you: the next week and a half is a write-off. We’re looking at a brutal stretch of nothingness at Pors Ar Ville (France). From now through to the 26th of July, it’s a whole lot of tiny, blown-out junk. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the waves are barely a ripple. There’s no energy in the water, just weak, poor conditions. We’re talking combined swell energy barely hitting 50 (21 to 49). You’d be better off waxing your board and staring at it in the driveway.

But hold onto your leash, because things change on Monday the 27th of July. The sun comes out, the wind swings cross-offshore from the WNW, and the ocean wakes up. We get a solid 6 ft of swell from the WNW with a period around 8 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 390—that’s moderate power, finally enough to push you down the line. The morning session is looking clean and rideable.

Monday afternoon stays around the same size, 6 ft, but the wind picks up a touch. It's still rideable but the morning is the pick. For a spot that’s been dead flat for over a week, this is the standout. It’s an exposed beach and reef setup, so it takes that WNW swell well. You’ll need to be an advanced surfer though—at this size, it's not for beginners. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there.

Don’t get too excited about the rest of the run. Tuesday the 28th sees the swell hold around 6 ft, but the wind turns cross-on from the north, messing up the surface with chop. Wednesday and beyond drop off again into marginal or poor surf. So, if you want a wave, your window is Monday morning. That’s the one. Even though the period is short (8 seconds), the clean conditions and moderate energy will give you something proper after all this flatness.
