Table - best surf conditions forecast for Porsmilin over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s happening for Porsmilin over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim run for the sandbar at Porsmilin. The finder tells me there’s no good surf on the cards for the entire 16-day window. We’re looking at a long stretch of flat to tiny, messy waves. The first solid suggestion of anything surfable doesn’t pop up until the 25th of July, and even then, it’s just barely surfable. That’s a gap of over a week and a half with nothing worth paddling out for.
The water temperature is sitting at 66°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s one small comfort if you’re just going for a swim.
The only time we see a half-decent wave height is on the 27th of July, with a 7 ft swell from the WNW. But the period is a short 7 seconds, and the wind is onshore from the WSW, making for a choppy, poor-quality mess. That combined energy is a solid 402 (moderate to strong), but the conditions are just too rough. It’s a setup that looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Earlier, on the 25th of July, we get a 3 ft to 4 ft WNW swell with a short period (8 seconds) and cross-offshore wind. The combined energy is around 124-170 (moderate), and the wave comment nudges it to "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." It’s clean, but barely. That’s the best of a bad lot, and it’s not saying much.
So, bottom line: don’t get your hopes up for Porsmilin. The forecast can always change, but for now, it’s a dry spell.
Rusty.

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.
