The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Porsmilin over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – it’s a bit of a slow start. We’ve got a long gap with nothing worth paddling out for, so don’t rush to wax up just yet.
The first real shot of surf doesn’t arrive until late in the month. From Wednesday 26th July afternoon, a new swell pushes in at around 6.6 ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds. The wave energy is strong at 610, but the wind is moderate onshore, making it a bit of a mess. Not the cleanest, but it’s the first sign of life.
The standout window comes on Monday 27th July – specifically the morning. We’re looking at a solid 5.6 ft from the WNW with a period of 9 seconds and a moderate wave energy reading (480). The wind is light offshore from the NW, only 3 mph, so the conditions should be clean and lined up. This is your best bet for the entire forecast. It’s a sandbar break, fairly consistent, and with the optimum swell direction coming from the SW, the WNW swell will still wrap in nicely. Crowds can show up here sometimes, so get in early.
After that, the surf tapers off. Tuesday 28th July morning is worth a mention – glassy conditions and 3.3 ft from the WNW. It’s small but clean, with light airs. Not a standout, but a nice little session if you’re keen.
The second week looks more inconsistent. There’s a bump around Saturday 1st August with 4.9 ft from the west, but the wind swings cross-onshore, so expect choppy, lumpy waves. Not ideal. Another pulse on Monday 3rd August brings 5.6 ft again, but it’s onshore from the southwest, so it’s a kite-surfing kind of day, not for paddling.
Tuesday 4th August morning might clean up a little – 4.6 ft from the WNW with light cross-offshore winds, but the swell is short period at 8 seconds, so it won’t have much push. Worth a look if you’re desperate.
Water temperature is sitting around 62.6° – about average for this time of year, so no wetsuit drama.
Overall, the clear winner is Monday 27th July morning at Porsmilin. Go get it.

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.

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.
