Table - best surf conditions forecast for Pors Ar Ville over the next 16 days.
Right, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Pors Ar Ville over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, it’s a fairly lean run for the next week or so. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the water’s a bit of a mess. We’re looking at a period from Saturday morning, 11th July, right through to Friday morning, 24th July, where there’s really nothing worth paddling out for. A lot of flat spells and poor surf conditions dominate that stretch. You’d be wasting your energy.
Now, there’s a glimmer of hope if you’re patient. The real standout arrives on Saturday morning, 25th July. That’s a full two weeks out, so it’s a long-range call, but it’s the one to circle on the calendar. The joint is Pors Ar Ville itself, a beach and reef setup that’s exposed to the WNW. We’re looking at a solid 8 ft swell, out of the WNW, with a moderate combined wave energy (1079). That’s a fair bit of power for an advanced wave. The wind is cross-offshore from the west at 16 mi/h, which will keep things clean. Just be aware, at that size it’s strictly for the experienced crew.
Before that, on Wednesday morning the 22nd, there’s a pulse of 6 ft swell (392 energy) that’s worth a mention, but conditions are described as marginal. That one is a maybe, not a definite.
Water temp is sitting at 65° with an anomaly of 3°, so it’s a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at Pors Ar Ville. Nice enough for a spring suit.
So, keep your eye on that Saturday 25th. It’s the pick of the bunch by a long shot. Everything else is either flat or forgettable. Winds late in the period turn offshore now and then, but without any decent swell to back it up, it’s just a tease.
