The Lowdown

Alright, let’s get into it. Over the next 16 days, we’ve got a long stretch of flat or near‑flat conditions at Porsmilin, with only one real window where things come together. That window is a beauty, but you’ll need to be patient and ready for a short‑lived, expert‑only pulse.

From now through Sunday 27 July, the swell is tiny – we’re talking 0.7ft to 1ft at best, with weak, short‑period energy. Winds are mostly cross‑offshore or light, but there’s simply no power to work with. The water temp is sitting at 65°, which is about average for this time of year (about 2° above normal – nothing wild). So you’re looking at a solid week of nothing doing. Don’t bother paddling out.

Then Monday 28 July morning changes everything. The swell jumps to 8ft from the WNW with a 10‑second period – that’s groundswell, solid and punchy. The combined energy is a beefy 1326, so there’s plenty of push. Wind is light offshore from the NNE at 6 mph, making it glassy clean. That’s the standout. But here’s the catch: 8ft is well into expert territory – if you’re not comfortable with overhead waves, sit this one out. The break is a sandbar, fairly consistent, and with the right direction (WNW, not the optimum SW) it’ll still offer some good lines. Crowds are possible – it’s “sometimes” busy, so you might have company. The afternoon fades a bit – still 8ft but wind shifts to cross‑offshore, a little lumpier.

After that, the swell drops quickly. Tuesday 29 July morning sees 4ft with offshore wind, but it’s ordinary – not worth the drive. From there it’s back to the doldrums through to 3 August, with onshore winds and messy, small surf. The only real chance is that Monday 28 July morning. Set your alarm, paddle out early, and enjoy the clean, powerful lines while they last.

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.
