The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get real about Porto Corsini. I’ve looked at the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it’s a tough stretch. There are no good surf options in this 16-day window. Not a single one. The wave energy is just too weak and inconsistent to get excited about. It’s one of those blank runs that can happen here, and it’s not going to be a quick fix.
Looking at the start of the period, the swell is tiny, barely a ripple. The first few days have some clean morning conditions, but there’s nothing behind them. The swell energy is weak, with figures like 4 or 3 in the brackets – that’s just not enough to push a wave. The water is warm, a toasty 87°F, and that’s a good 8°F warmer than normal for this time of year, which is very unusual. It might feel like a bath, but it won’t help the surf.
The middle of the week brings a slight bump on Wednesday afternoon, up to 2ft, but the period is a short 5 seconds. That’s just wind chop, not a real swell. The energy is still weak, at 16. The wind is also cross-onshore, making it messy. This pattern holds for a few days – small, weak, and mostly onshore. There’s a glassy morning on the 15th, but the swell is a pathetic 0.7ft. It’s not worth paddling out for.
We get a bit more energy around the 19th and 20th, with the swell pushing to 4ft on the Wednesday afternoon. But the period is still short, and the energy, while moderate at 61, is just not focused. The wind is onshore, so it’s going to be choppy and poor. This is a beach and river setup, and with that kind of wind and weak, short-period swell, it’s looking more like a kite surfing day than a paddle surfing day.
The last few days see some cleaner conditions, like the morning of the 21st with a light offshore wind and a 2ft swell. But the energy is still weak, and the swell direction is from the ENE, which is not the optimum for this spot. It’s just not enough to break properly. The swell window is just not lining up.
So, that’s the grim picture. The first week is a total write-off, and the second week only offers slightly bigger, but still poor, waves. There are a couple of days with potential for clean conditions, but the swell just isn’t there to back it up. I’d keep the board in the car and maybe find something else to do. It tends not to stay this poor forever, but this stretch looks pretty locked in.

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.
