The Lowdown

Alright crew, Rusty here. Gotta level with you – the next two weeks are a total bust for Port Louis. There’s no real surf to speak of, just a whole lot of nothing. The wind’s gonna be howling offshore from the east and southeast day after day, but without any swell to work with, it’s all just a cruel tease. The water’s sitting at a warm 84° right now, which is about normal for this time of year, but you won’t be needing a wetsuit for anything rideable.

We’ve got a long, dry gap stretching from now all the way through to the first week of August. The first glimmer of anything happens on Thursday, August 6th, when we see a tiny pulse of swell. It’s a NNE swell hitting 2ft to 3ft, with a short period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is weak (52), and with the wind still fresh from the ESE, it’ll be a little bumpy. It’s a beginner-friendly wave, but only just. The swell direction is coming from the NNE, which is close to the optimum for this spot.

That’s about it. The rest of the run into the second week stays tiny, with a few more pulses of 0.7ft to 1.0ft from the north and north-northeast. The energy never cracks triple digits. It’s a frustratingly flat spell for Port Louis, and honestly, this kind of blank run is more normal for the area than a big run of good swell. Forecasts can change, but right now, there’s nothing to get the heart pumping.

Rusty.

Information about the Port Louis Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Port Louis provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Port Louis can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Port Louis 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 (Port Louis) 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 Port Louis 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.
