The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here, with a look at the coming swell window for Pors Ar Ville. We’ve got some real moments of beauty in the forecast, but it’s not all smooth sailing. The water’s sitting at a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, just under a degree and a half above normal, so it’s that little bit nicer when you’re waiting for a set.

The first real window of opportunity hits us this Friday morning, the 11th of September. We’ve got a clean 5ft swell out of the WNW with a 10-second period, and a light cross-offshore breeze keeping things tidy. The combined wave energy is solidly in the moderate range (370). It’s not massive, but it’s clean, and that’s a good start.

The standout session is easily Sunday the 20th of September. The morning is looking absolute gold. We’ve got a 7ft swell from the WNW but with a very long period of 14 seconds—proper groundswell with a ton of push and shape. The combined energy is strong at 1667. There’s barely a breath of wind, just a slight air, so expect glassy conditions. This is a proper groundswell, and that long period will mean better lines and longer waits between the sets. It’s pushing into advanced territory size-wise, so this one’s for the experienced crew.

Before that, the morning of Wednesday the 16th of September is worth a look. A 7ft WNW swell with moderate energy (659) comes with a cross-shore wind that’s going to bump the surface a bit. It’s there, but it won't be as clean as the 20th.

Looking further down the line, the morning of Saturday the 26th of September shows a big 7ft swell with that same very long 12-second period, pushing up to 8ft by the afternoon. The combined energy is very strong (1195). The problem is the onshore wind is going to make a mess of it, and the size is firmly in the expert-only range, so it’s a frustrating one to watch.

There are a lot of days in between where the wind screws it, especially the second week of the forecast. The swell shows up, but the onshore and cross-onshore winds from the NE and ENE kill any chance of quality. You’ll see a lot of "poor surf conditions" in that stretch from the 21st right through to the 25th, with bumpy and choppy water.

So, to boil it down: snag Friday morning the 11th for a fun, clean session, but circle Sunday the 20th of September. That morning is the true standout—a deep, powerful groundswell with near-perfect conditions. Keep your fingers crossed the forecast holds for that one.

Rusty.
