The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the table for La Nartelle over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this stretch is looking pretty flat and uninspiring for a good long while. There’s a big ol’ gap with nothing worth paddling out for. The water’s sitting at a balmy 78°, which is much warmer than we’d usually expect for this time of year, but that’s about the only excitement.
We’re looking at zero surf for the first two weeks. Nothing on the 3rd, nothing on the 4th, nada all the way through to the 16th of September. Just clean mornings with no swell, or small windswell junk under 2 ft that’s barely worth a mention. It’s a blank run.
Then, on the morning of Thursday the 17th of September, we finally get a pulse. A small east swell of 4 ft starts showing up, with a period of 6 seconds – so short-period, windswell stuff, but it’s coming with clean conditions and that cross-offshore breeze from the NNW. The combined wave energy is moderate at that point (106). It’s not a classic groundswell, but it’s the only window that even registers a score. For a beginner-friendly spot like La Nartelle, this could be a little window for a splash. The swell direction is from the east, which is what the spot likes to see.
That afternoon, though, the wind swings onshore from the ESE and the swell jumps a bit in energy (262) but the quality drops out.
Honestly, the only standout in this whole 16-day forecast is that Thursday morning session on the 17th. If you’re desperate for a paddle, that’s your shot. It’s small, it’s weak, but it’s clean. Everything else is a write-off.
Rusty.
