Alright, this is Rusty. I've been staring at the charts for Pors Ar Ville, and I've got to be straight with you – it's a pretty grim outlook for the next couple of weeks. We're looking at a long stretch of junky surf. There's a run from the start of the period right through to the 10th of July where we barely get a sniff of anything worth paddling out for, with small, weak, and often onshore waves.
The best of a bad bunch, and I mean that honestly, comes on Saturday the 11th and into Sunday the 12th of July. On Saturday morning, we see a little bump in size to 4ft from the WNW with a period of 11 seconds. That's a longer-period groundswell, so there'll be more energy behind it, but at a beach-and-reef setup like this, it can sometimes be a bit too straight. The combined energy hits 302 (moderate wave energy), which is the biggest we see all window. The wind is a light cross-shore in the morning, which should keep it reasonably clean, but not perfect. Saturday afternoon gets a bit cleaner with a cross-offshore breeze from the WNW, and the swell nudges up to 4ft. With a score that's still only marginal, I'd say this is the only real window to get wet, but keep your expectations in check.
For all the other days, it's mostly dribble. You'll see a few moments of glassy conditions on the 9th and 14th of July, but the swell is barely 3ft to 3ft and weak. You'd be fighting for scraps on a longboard, if that. The water temp is sitting at 63°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won't freeze waiting for a set that never comes. Honestly, this set-up with the small, messy swell and onshore winds over a beach and reef is looking more like a kite surfer's session than a paddle surfer's dream for most of this outlook.
We get a little tease of clean conditions and a cross-offshore wind on the 15th and 17th of July, but the swell drops right off to 2ft with no energy. Forget it. This is a long dry spell, mate. Your best bet is that Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th, but don't expect anything epic.
Rusty.
