The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s break down what Pors Ar Ville (Plouguerneau) has got lined up for the next sixteen days.
It’s a slow burner to start. The first several days are fairly weak, and we don’t get a proper session until the second week. The water temp is about 63°F, which is dead average for the season—no surprises there.
The first real highlight is Monday, September 11th in the morning. A 4ft swell from the west with a 9-second interval—not super long, but there’s enough push. Winds are offshore out of the SSW at 12 mph, making for clean, open faces. The combined swell energy sits at 269—moderate, decent power. This is the pick of the first week. Crowds can show up here, so beat the rush.
Things flatten out again after that, with waist-high waves and shifty winds, but we get another chance early Sunday, September 13th morning. Near-glass conditions—offshore winds from the SSW at just 3 mph. Swell is 5ft from the WNW with a 10-second period, energy at 356. It’s lookin’ clean and well-shaped. Definitely worth a paddle.
Then, looking way ahead to Monday, September 21st afternoon—this is a long-range prospect, so don’t lock it in yet. The energy is huge—1980—with a 10ft swell from the WNW and an 11-second period. That’s a serious groundswell. Winds are cross-offshore from the west at 12 mph, so it should be clean. But that size is for experts only. On a beach break it could be a bit too straight, but on the reef it’ll be a ripper. Keep it on the radar.
So, to sum it up: September 11th and 13th are your best bets. That big one on the 21st is a promise from a long way off—could be epic, could be a letdown. We’ll see.
Rusty.
