The Lowdown
Alright, I’m gonna break down the next 16 days for Pors Ar Ville. It’s a spot for the sharper crew – advanced level, beach and reef, needs a solid WNW to get going, and that’s the direction it likes best.
Tuesday morning gets things started with a 5 ft swell from the WNW at 10 seconds, combined energy’s at 394 (moderate), but it’s raining heavy and the offshore wind is fresh outta the SSW. Tides look iffy, so don't bet on it. Tuesday afternoon turns uglier – 6 ft swell but cross-shore wind ruins it, lumpy and poor.
Wednesday stays messy. Swell around 5 to 5 ft, but cross-shore winds and slight chop all day. Not worth the drive.
Thursday the 10th is clean in the morning – 3 ft swell, light offshore wind from the SW, but it’s pretty weak overall. Combined energy sits at 120 (weak). Afternoon drops off to 2 ft and goes cross-shore.
Then Friday morning the 11th of September is the call. Wave height’s 5 ft, period 10 seconds, and the wind is light offshore from the WSW. Combined energy is 281 (moderate). It’s clean, it’s lined up with the optimum direction, and conditions are actually good. That’s your best shot – the standout of the whole 16-day run. Water temp is about normal for the time of year.
Saturday morning the 12th has a clean look with a 2 ft swell but very ordinary conditions. Energy’s only 179 (weak). After that, we hit a long dry spell.
From Monday the 14th through the 22nd of September, it’s mostly small, choppy, cross-shore slop. Wave heights stay under 3 ft, barely any energy, and a lot of moderate cross-shore breezes. A few mornings are clean but just not enough punch.
All the way out on Wednesday the 23rd of September there’s another pulse – 5 ft from the NW at 11 seconds, combined energy hits 593 (moderate), and the wind is cross-off and clean. That could be something, but it’s a long ways out and nothing’s locked in yet.
Bottom line: Friday the 11th is your window. Clean, lined up, and enough size for an advanced surfer to have fun. The rest of the time is a lot of sitting and waiting. Stay tuned for that Wednesday the 23rd, but don’t make solid plans yet.

Information about the Pors Ar Ville Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Pors Ar Ville provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Pors Ar Ville can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Pors Ar Ville surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period.

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).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Pors Ar Ville may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
