The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s coming up at La Nartelle.

Right now, we are looking at a long, dry spell. There is a significant gap with absolutely no surf on offer at the start of the period. It isn't until the 19th of September that we see even a tiny ripple, and even then the quality is poor. The first real chance of anything surfable doesn't roll around until the 27th of September, and even that is a bit of a stretch. That’s over a week and a half of flatness, so don’t bother paddling out before then.

Finally, on the morning of the 27th, we get a pulse of swell. We're talking about 4ft of easterly swell at 5 seconds. The combined wave energy is moderate at (170). It's a short period windswell, so the shape isn't going to be world-class. The big win here is the glassy wind in the morning. That will clean up the surface nicely. This is a sheltered spot, so it needs that. The water is a whopping 8°F warmer than average, which is incredibly unusual – the ocean feels like a bathtub for the time of year. The crowds are only *sometimes* a problem here, but on a day with the only real surf around, you can expect company. This is the clear standout of the entire window, but honestly, for a beginner spot with inconsistent waves, even this is only just worth wetting the suit for.

After that, the swell drops back off quickly. The afternoon of the 27th and the 28th see the energy fade and the winds get a little messy again. The morning of the 29th has a little bit of cross-shore bump, but nothing that’s going to get the heart racing.

Honestly, if you need a surf, keep your eyes on the forecasts. When it's this flat for this long, things can only change for the better.

Rusty.

Information about the La Nartelle Surf forecast

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