The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what we’ve got for this stretch. The honest truth is, this is about as flat a run as you can find. We’re looking at a 16-day window and there’s just no real surf to speak of. The only wave heights that show up at all are tiny little ripples, never even reaching 2 ft, and the combined swell energy sits at a measly 0 to 6 (0 to 6). That’s barely enough to move a floating leaf, let alone a surfboard. The first sign of anything is on the 5th of September, a tiny 0.7 ft ripple from the ENE with a period of just 2 seconds. That’s not surfing. That’s wind chop. So, from now until the end of the 16-day run, the story is the same: poor surf conditions across the board. It’s a solid, almost total blank.
Now, La Nartelle itself is listed as a sheltered spot, which can be golden when the swell is right, but here it’s just not catching anything. All those days from September 3rd all the way through to September 18th show either “poor surf conditions” or nothing at all. There’s a couple of moments with clean glassy conditions or offshore wind, like the morning of the 7th and the 13th, but with zero swell, it’s just a flat sea. The freshwater breeze in the morning of the 9th (19 mph from the WNW) would give you a clean, blown-out surface, but again, without swell, it’s useless.
Given that this break is “inconsistent” and the combined energy is so weak, this kind of dead stretch is pretty normal for the area. The forecasts can always change, but right now there’s nothing to get excited about. If you’re desperate to get wet, you’d be better off with a kite on those windy days, but for a surfboard, you’re looking at a long wait. Hang in there.
Rusty.

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.
