The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – this is a grim outlook for Pors Ar Ville. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with no decent surf on the horizon. The first wave of any note isn’t even a sniff until Sunday the 26th of July, and even then, it’s a struggle. The whole first week is a write-off – tiny, weak swell with no energy, and the wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore, chopping everything up. It’s a real bummer.
The first real pulse of energy comes through on Sunday the 26th of July. The water is about average for the time of year at 64°F. We get a bit of a lift with a WNW swell pushing 4ft, and the period is a short, weak 7 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 178, so there’s a bit of push there, but it’s still not great. The wind is cross-offshore, which is the only saving grace, keeping the surface clean. It’s a beach and reef setup, so that short period is going to make it a bit crumbly. It’s still in the “poor surf conditions” category for me, though. Monday the 27th sees the biggest swell of the window, with 5ft from the WNW and a combined energy of 273, which is a solid moderate energy. The morning has a clean cross-shore wind, making it the best of a bad bunch, but it’s still a marginal call with questionable tide. The afternoon turns choppy again.
After that, it’s back to the doldrums. The swell fades fast, staying under 3ft for the rest of the forecast. The wind is mostly onshore or cross, with a few cleaner moments like Tuesday the 4th of August morning when it’s glassy but only 1ft of swell. That’s a tease, not a session.
Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, Sunday the 26th or Monday the 27th of July are the only days with even a pulse of energy, but it’s not going to be special. This is a classic case of a blank run for this area. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s looking like a long wait.
