The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next two weeks are a tough gig for surfers around here. We’ve got a long quiet spell staring us down, so don’t expect much action.
The only break on offer is Porto Corsini, a river mouth setup that’s inconsistent and best for beginners. The water temperature is a wild 84°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year – that’s over five degrees above average, very unusual stuff. Through most of the forecast, the swell is tiny and weak, with combined wave energy barely reaching double digits most days. It’s a real flat spell.
We start now, and from Friday the 21st through to the end of August, it’s pretty much a write-off. Friday morning has a tiny 1ft swell from the ESE with a short period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy is a weak 10. Conditions are glassy first thing, but the waves are too small to bother with. The rest of the weekend and the following week offer next to nothing – heights are below 2ft and energy is often in the single digits or zero. A lot of glassy mornings with no surf to ride. This quiet run stretches for about two weeks.
There’s a glimmer on Friday the 4th of September. The early morning shows a 3ft swell from the ENE with a 6-second period, and the combined energy jumps to 68 – that’s moderate energy, the best we’ll see. Winds are light offshore from the WNW, keeping it clean. The swell is still small, but with that offshore wind, the river mouth could offer a few fun, rideable waves for a beginner or someone on a longboard. It’s not a standout for most, but it’s the only real window. By afternoon the wind swings onshore and chops it up, so get in early.
After that, the energy fades back to nothing. Saturday the 5th is flat again.
Honestly, this is a blank run for the area. If you’re desperate for a paddle, that Friday morning on the 4th is your one shot. Otherwise, keep the board in the car and watch the sky.
Rusty.

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