The Lowdown
Alright, this is a tough one to call. Honestly, for the next 16 days, there's barely a ripple to get excited about at La Nartelle. The whole run is a flat spell, with nothing but tiny, weak slop that’s never going to form a proper wave. We're talking a solid two weeks of "poor surf conditions" across the board.
The first real hint of anything comes on the morning of Tuesday, August 4th, with a tiny 2ft swell from the east, but it's got a short 3-second period and a cross-onshore wind. The combined energy is a measly (5). It's not worth paddling out for. That afternoon it gets a touch bigger, 3ft from the east, but the wind shifts straight onshore and the period is still only 5 seconds. The energy climbs to (36) but it's still a messy, blown-out mess.
After that, it's back to near-flatness through the rest of the first week and into the second. A few mornings see a light cross-offshore breeze from the NNW, which is clean, but with zero swell to work with, it's just a glassy lake. The water temperature is a very unusual 82°, which is *much warmer than normal* for this time of year, but that's cold comfort when there's no surf.
The only other tiny bump appears on Monday, August 10th, with 1ft from the east-northeast, again with a short period and poor winds. The energy is just (7) to (8). It's a total write-off.
For a break that's already inconsistent, this is a truly blank run. There's nothing here for a surfer. Honestly, the setup looks more interesting for a paddleboard or a long swim than a surf session. Keep the board in the car, save the gas, and check back in a few days – forecasts can change, but this one is a stone-cold bummer.

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.
