Table - best surf conditions forecast for Pors Ar Ville over the next 16 days.
Alright, let's break it down, but this time in feet and Fahrenheit.
I’m gonna be honest with you. The first two weeks at Pors Ar Ville are a grind. A long, flat, wind-blown stretch from now until the 24th of July. Wave heights are tiny—less than a foot most days—and the energy numbers are all in the weak range. Not worth the wax.
Then, on the 24th of July, a big pulse shows up: 10-foot swell from the WNW, 9-second period, but with onshore winds at 20 mph. The combined energy is a massive 1152. It’s powerful, but messy. That’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a clean paddle session.
The real gem lands Saturday morning the 25th of July. We’re looking at a clean 8ft groundswell from the WNW, period of 10 seconds, and light cross-offshore winds from the west at just 9 mph. Combined energy is 1088. This is expert-level stuff. At that size and with that swell direction matching the break’s optimum, you’re in for some powerful, well-shaped waves, especially on the reef sections. The longer period means longer waits between sets, but the quality will be worth it. The water temperature is 66°F, a touch warmer than usual for this time, so a 3/2 wetsuit should be fine.
Sunday the 26th offers a more manageable option: 5-foot swell with light offshore winds from the southwest at 6 mph. The energy is moderate at 359, and conditions are expected to be good. It’s a solid backup for anyone who misses Saturday.
So, don't get excited too early. The 16-day outlook is barren until the last weekend. Saturday the 25th morning is your standout call—big, clean, and powerful. Sunday the 26th is a good second choice. The rest? Not worth a look.
