The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Pors Ar Ville.
The next few days are pretty flat and not worth your time. Friday morning has a tiny 0.7m swell from the WNW, weak energy (84), with a moderate cross-off breeze – real poor stuff. Saturday comes with a bigger swell but strong, messy cross-off winds. Pass.
Sunday the 30th morning gets interesting: a clean 1.6m swell from the WNW, 9-second period, moderate offshore wind from the SW. Energy’s moderate (374), and it’s “expect good surf conditions.” That’s the first real chance.
Monday the 31st morning has a solid 2.2m swell from the WNW, 10-second period, moderate cross-off breeze. Energy hits 942 – moderate to strong. Marked as marginal, but worth a look.
The standout is Saturday the 5th of September morning. Clean skies, gentle offshore wind from the WSW, and a 1.5m groundswell from the WNW with a long 12-second period. Energy’s strong at 585. “Expect very good surf conditions.” The swell direction matches perfectly. Clean, lined-up waves for advanced surfers. Crowds possible, so get there early.
After that, surf drops off with mixed winds and smaller swell. Water temp’s about average. The real gem is that Saturday morning – the rest is just filler.
Rusty.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
