The Lowdown

Alright, let’s have a look at what we’ve got here.

To be honest, mate, it’s looking pretty flat and quiet for the next couple of weeks. The only break that’s even on the radar is La Nartelle, and even then, it’s a tough one. This spot is sheltered and needs a very specific easterly swell to really work, which just isn't happening in any meaningful way. The water temperature is sitting at 80°F, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year — that’s a full 9°F above average, so the water feels like a warm bath.

There’s no real swell to speak of right through the whole 16-day window. The first few days are a total write-off with zero wave energy. We see a tiny blip of 1ft from the east on Sunday the 6th, but with a period of just 3 seconds and a weak combined energy of only 1, it’s barely a ripple. The wind is cross-onshore or onshore, so it’s messy and not worth paddling out for.

Monday the 7th is glassy in the morning but completely flat. That trend continues for days — occasional glassy conditions, some light offshores, but no swell to ride. The first hint of anything comes late on Thursday the 10th, with a tiny 2ft easterly swell, period only 4 seconds, and combined energy of 7 — still pretty weak. Friday the 11th is similar, with 2ft from the east, period 5 seconds, energy up to 13. It’s clean in the mornings but the swell is just too small and weak to get excited about.

La Nartelle is inconsistent at the best of times, and with such a drawn-out flat spell, there’s nothing to recommend. A couple of days in the second week — like Wednesday the 16th afternoon — show a tiny 0.7ft easterly bump, but with onshore wind and no energy, it’s not worth the drive. Later, on Saturday the 19th, we see 0.3ft from the south with a 6-second period — again, just too small.

Honestly, if you’re a beginner, even the tiny swell days are too small to learn on, and for anyone else, there’s just no power or shape to work with. The setup here might appeal more to a kite surfer if the wind picks up, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a big fat zero for the whole 16 days.

So, the outlook is bleak — no standouts, no real swell, just flat calm and warm water. Forecasts can always change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.

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.
