The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Grab a coffee, because this is going to be a long one for Porsmilin. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat, with just a single window of opportunity that might get the heart pumping.
Right now through the end of July, it’s dead. We’re talking tiny, weak waves with combined energy barely getting into double digits (38). The water is sitting at 63.1°F, which is pretty much normal for this time of year. We’ve got a run of clean, offshore mornings, but with swell heights around 1.3 ft it’s a lake, not a surf break. This flat spell stretches all the way from the 21st of July through to the 26th. Nothing to get excited about.
Then, on the 27th of July, things change. A solid pulse of WNW swell pushes in, hitting 4.9 ft with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy jumps to 346, which is proper moderate energy. The wind is forecast to be light offshore from the North at 10 km/h. That’s the good stuff. This is looking like the standout of the whole forecast. The waves will have some punch, and that offshore breeze will keep the faces clean. This is the one to circle on the calendar. With the swell size at 4.9 ft, it’s getting borderline for beginners, but for the intermediates, this is where it’s at.
The following morning, the 28th, it’s dropping back to 3.6 ft from the NW, but still with clean conditions. It’s surfable, but nothing special compared to the day before. After that, it’s a slow fade back into small, weak surf for the rest of the run into early August. The 1st of August has a morning of 3.9 ft WNW swell with a moderate offshore wind, but it’s ordinary. The 2nd of August also has some size at 3.9 ft, but the wind swings cross-shore, making it a bit messy.
In short, the whole 16-day window is a write-off, except for the 27th of July. That’s your day. Get out there and get some.

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.
