Table - best surf conditions forecast for La Nartelle over the next 16 days.
Alright, this is a tough one to call. To be honest with you, looking at the next 16 days for La Nartelle, it’s a real flat spell. There’s hardly a pulse of energy, and the water is a balmy 79° right now, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s about the only thing out of the ordinary.
We kick off on Sunday the 12th of July, but it’s not really worth paddling out. You’re looking at a tiny 2ft easterly windswell with a period of just 5 seconds and a cross-on breeze. The combined energy is a measly (14). It’s poor. That sets the tone for the whole outlook.
Monday the 13th sees a glassy morning, but with only 0.7ft on offer, it’s a lake. The energy drops to just (1). There’s nothing to ride. Tuesday the 14th is completely flat, and this continues through the week. We get a few tiny bumps of 1.0ft and 2ft here and there, but they’re all short-period, poor quality, and with cross-onshore winds. The energy never breaks into double digits.
There’s a slight tease on Wednesday the 22nd of July. We get a glassy morning with a 0.7ft southerly swell, and then a glassy afternoon with a 1ft SE swell, but the energy is still only (3). It’s tiny, inconsistent, and for a beginner spot like this, it’s just not enough to get excited about.
The truth is, there’s no standout day. The whole 16-day window is a write-off. La Nartelle is a sheltered spot needing an easterly swell, and the easterly energy that does show up is too weak and short-period to do anything. For a spot that’s already inconsistent, this blank run is a bit more normal for the area, but it’s still a bummer. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board at home.

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.
