Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what we've got coming up for Porsmilin over the next couple of weeks. It's a bit of a mixed bag, but there are a few windows where it could be worth a paddle.
We're looking at a fairly consistent sandbar setup here, exposed to the SW swell window. The water's sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, about 64°, which is a nice little bonus.
The week kicks off on Sunday the 5th with some small, ordinary waves. We've got 2 ft of west swell pushing through with a 9-second period, but a moderate north breeze is making it a bit lumpy. The energy is weak at 154, so it's really just something to wet the wetsuit in.
Monday the 6th is the first real standout of the forecast. We see a drop in the wind, going glassy in the morning. The swell eases slightly to 3 ft from the WNW, but with zero wind, it’s going to be clean as a whistle. The period drops to 8 seconds, so it's a bit short and weak (energy at 108), but the conditions will be perfect for a grovel session on a longboard or a fish. This is the pick of the first week for sure.
After that, we drift into a stretch of very weak, small surf for several days. Tuesday through Saturday are mostly characterised by tiny waves, often under 2 ft, with variable winds that are often cross-off or glassy, but the energy is pathetically low. It’s not going to be worth dragging a board out for.
Things get interesting again on Tuesday the 14th. A pulse of WNW groundswell arrives, pushing the wave height to 3 ft. The period stretches to 11 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to a moderate 264. The wind is light and offshore from the NE, which will groom the waves. This is the second standout of the outlook. It’s not massive, but it’s the best combination of size and quality we see in the whole run. Keep an eye on this one.
From Wednesday the 15th onward, the trend is downhill again. The swell fades, winds get stronger, and the energy drains away. By the weekend of the 19th and into the 20th, we're down to barely a ripple with onshore winds making a mess of things.
So to wrap it up: get out on Monday the 6th for the glassy, clean conditions, or mark your calendar for Tuesday the 14th for the most significant, well-shaped swell of the forecast. Everything else is pretty average.
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.
