Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s happening at Porsmilin over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim start. We’re looking at a long, flat spell with nothing surfable for over a week. From Saturday the 11th all the way through to Monday the 20th, there’s just no swell to speak of. You’ll see tiny waves here and there, but nothing worth paddling out for. The combined energy is weak, well under 100 for most of that stretch, and the wind is all over the place. It’s a classic summer lull.
Things finally start to look up around Tuesday the 22nd. That morning we get a clean, gentle offshore wind from the NNE and a 6ft swell from the WNW. The period is short at 7 seconds, so it’s a bit of a messy, windswell-type wave, but combined energy is moderate at 342, and it’s the first real surf we’ve seen. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The standout session of the whole outlook is the afternoon of Friday the 24th. Swell size jumps to 12ft from the WNW, with a period of 10 seconds. That’s a lot of water moving – combined energy is a massive 2210. The wind is onshore from the south, which is rough, but the main issue is that it’s way too big for this break. This is strictly for experts only, and even then, it’s gonna be a wild one. The crowd factor? Porsmilin can get busy, and with a swell this size, the lineup will be chaotic.
Saturday the 25th still has plenty of size – 8ft to 10ft from the WNW, with a longer period around 11-12 seconds. That’s proper groundswell energy. The morning has a light cross-onshore, but the afternoon cleans up with a cross-offshore breeze from the NW (1381 combined energy). This is your second-best window, but still big and demanding.
In short, you’ve got over a week of nothing, then a couple of punchy, big-swell days for the experienced crew. Beginners, stay home.
Rusty.

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.

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.
