The Lowdown
Right, let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Porsmilin over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, mate, it’s a bit of a slow burn. The first few days are pretty much a write-off. Saturday the 25th and Sunday the 26th are just messy – tiny, weak swell and cross-off winds that aren’t doing us any favours. You’re looking at a combined energy of only 16 and 19 on Saturday, and even though Sunday bumps up to 259 and then 461, the period is short (7 to 8 seconds) and the wind is too strong. The surf quality is poor, and it’s really not worth paddling out.
Then we get a little window. Monday the 27th morning is the standout in this whole outlook. The swell is a solid 6 ft from the WNW, with a period of 10 seconds, and the energy is pumping at 553. The wind is light out of the NW at 6 mph, which is cross-offshore and will keep it clean. This is the best the sandbar is going to look – proper shape, good energy, and manageable. The morning session is the one to lock in. The afternoon stays clean but the wind picks up to 16 mph, so it’s still surfable but not as good.
Tuesday the 28th drops right back. The swell drops to 3 ft, the energy is down to 197, and the conditions are just ordinary. Clean, but underwhelming. Wednesday and Thursday the 29th and 30th are poor again – small, weak, and cross-onshore or just messy. The energy is barely ticking over, hitting 85 and 95.
From Friday the 31st right through to Sunday the 9th of August, it’s a pretty barren stretch. The swell is tiny, mostly under 3 ft, and the energy is low – often in the double digits. There’s a brief pulse on Monday the 3rd of August afternoon with a 4 ft swell from the WSW and a fresh offshore wind, but the energy is only 251 and the score is poor. It’s not enough to get excited about. The rest of that week is small, weak, and not worth your time.
So, to sum it up: the only real standout is Monday the 27th morning. After that, it’s a long gap with very little to offer. The water temperature at Porsmilin is about 64°F, which is pretty normal for the time of year, so no surprises there.
