The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, translating for those who think in feet and knots.
We're looking at a pretty quiet outlook for Port Eynon Point over the next couple of weeks. This place is inconsistent by nature, so a run of small, junky days isn't a shocker.
There's a big gap of nothing worth paddling for from Saturday the 15th right through to the morning of Thursday the 20th. Small, messy, onshore slop. You'd be dodging cross-chop for waist-high dribble.
Thursday the 20th sees the swell hit about 5ft, with energy picking up, but it's paired with a fresh, lumpy cross-onshore. A mess for paddling, might be more interesting for the kite crew.
First real chance is Friday the 21st morning. Clean conditions with a gentle offshore breeze. Swell is tiny, only about 3ft from the WSW with a short period, but at least it's clean. You could scratch into a few.
Then we hit another dry spell until Monday the 24th. That morning is the standout. The wind goes glassy, and there's a pulse of chest-high swell, around 4-5ft from the WSW. The energy is solid and the glassy surface makes this the cleanest wave of the entire run. It's a short window though; the afternoon gets chopped up.
Looking further out, Tuesday the 25th morning offers the biggest swell of the forecast: a solid 6-7ft from the WSW with a light offshore. That's expert territory, and the quality is uncertain this far out.
After that, it fades back to small, windy, or clean but knee-high conditions through to the end of the month. The morning of Sunday the 30th has a clean 6ft swell, but that's a long way off.
Your best bet is that glassy morning on Monday the 24th. Tuesday the 25th has the size, but it's a long-range gamble.

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 Port Eynon Point 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.
