Table - best surf conditions forecast for Pors Ar Ville over the next 16 days.
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s be straight with you about Pors Ar Ville. The whole 16-day run looks pretty grim, I won’t lie. The swell is tiny for most of it, barely pushing 3 feet, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore for the first big chunk, messing up any chance of clean waves. There’s a gap at the start – nothing worth paddling out for on Saturday the 11th or Sunday the 12th. The water temp is sitting at 65°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Monday the 13th is flat as a tack, with combined swell energy down at a weak 2 (2). Tuesday the 14th sees a tiny bump from the NNE, but it’s only 3 ft at a short period of 7 seconds – combined energy is still pathetic at 78 (78). Wednesday the 15th, the wind finally goes cross-offshore from the WNW, but the swell is just 1 ft with a period of 10 seconds, and energy is only 33 (33). Clean, but barely a ripple. That pattern of tiny, clean but weak swell drags on through the 16th, 17th, 18th, and 19th – nothing over 2 ft and combined energy barely cracking 28.
Now, if you’re desperate, the standout window, if you can call it that, is around Wednesday the 22nd. The swell picks up to 4 ft from the NW with a 10-second period, and combined energy jumps to 240 (240). That’s moderate energy, and with clean cross-offshore winds from the WNW, the conditions are actually clean. But this is a beach and reef setup, and with such a long-period, straight-shooting NW swell, it’s going to be better for reef or point breaks – still, it’s the best on offer. Saturday the 21st has a bit of size (4 ft from the NNW) but with a choppy, short-period 6-second swell, it’s not going to be much fun.
Honestly, the poor surf quality tag sticks with every slot in the data. It’s just a rough run. There’s a few days of clean but tiny surf mid-period, and that one day on the 22nd with a little more push. For the rest, it’s not worth getting wet. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a real slow spell.
Rusty.
