Alright, Rusty here. Right, let's check the surf situation.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a flat spell we’re in for at Porsmilin. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 64°.
We’ve got some small swell on the way, but the problem is the wind. It’s gonna be a grind waiting for a proper session. We start off with a pulse of 3ft from the west on Saturday the 4th, but that cross-off wind is just too strong at 16 mph to make it any good. The wave energy is moderate (232), but it’s all blown out.
The best chance to even get a wetsuit on looks like Monday the 6th. Early morning, we've got a glassy 3ft swell from the WNW, period around 8 seconds, and only 3 mph of easterly wind. The energy is weak (110), and the waves will be pretty ordinary, but at least it'll be clean. You won't be getting barreled, but you'll get a few trim runs.
After that, it goes a bit quiet again. We get some small surf, but the winds are just messy. Thursday morning the 10th sees a 4ft WNW swell with a gentle breeze, energy at 188, but the conditions are just ordinary.
We skip forward a bit, and there is a flicker of life on the morning of Saturday the 11th of July. A 3ft WNW groundswell with an 11-second period (202 energy) and a gentle offshore N wind. It’s a clean option, but still small. Then Tuesday morning the 14th looks promising with some glassy 3ft swell from the WNW (217 energy) and no wind.
But hold on. Things get interesting in the second week. Friday, the 17th of July. The morning sees a 7ft swell from the west with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is massive at 890. This is strong wave energy. The trouble is, the wind is a cross-off at 9 mph so it should be clean, but those short-period waves at beach breaks can be a bit close-outy. This is expert territory at over 8ft, so at 7ft it's still a handful for beginners. The Saturday before (18th) has a smaller, but cleaner 4ft swell. For a standout, I’m leaning toward the Friday morning (17th). It’s the biggest and most powerful of the whole run. Just don't be a hero if you're not up for it.
Overall, the next week is a waiting game with a few clean but weak windows. The long-range into the second week pulls in some serious energy, Friday the 17th being the one to circle on the calendar.
Rusty signing off.

Information about the Porsmilin Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Porsmilin provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Porsmilin can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Porsmilin 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. If you surf the same spot (Porsmilin) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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 Porsmilin 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.
