The Lowdown

Alright, this is Rusty. Let's be straight with you – the outlook for La Nartelle over the next couple of weeks is pretty grim. We've got a long flat spell to sit through before anything remotely surfable shows up, and even then, it's nothing to get excited about.

From now all the way through the 24th of September, it's effectively flat. You'll see tiny dribbles of swell here and there – like a 0.3ft pulse from the SSE on the 22nd – but the wind is all wrong, mostly onshore or cross-onshore. It’s a wasteland for a paddle surfer. The water temp is sitting at 80°, which is a massive 9° warmer than normal for this time of year, so if you just wanna float around in bathwater and sun yourself, go for it. But don't bother bringing a board.

Then, on the morning of Friday, September 25th, things get a bit interesting, but not in a good way. The wind is gonna be howling from the NE at 16 mph with a risk of thunderstorms. By the afternoon, the wind picks up even more to 19 mph, and a small easterly swell starts to build – 4ft at a weak 5 seconds, so terrible shape. The combined energy is a weak (53) – it's just a messy, onshore chop. If the wind holds, a kite surfer might get some fun, but for a paddle surfer? Forget it.

The best, and I mean *only* real chance in this whole 16-day window is Saturday, September 26th. You’ll wake up to a cleaner 5ft easterly swell, still with a short 6-second period. The energy jumps up to a moderate (144), and importantly, the wind goes light from the NNE at 6 mph, so it’s just a light cross-onshore. By afternoon, it holds at 5ft, period still short at 6 seconds, and the energy is (151). This spot is sheltered, so it will take some of that edge off, and a beginner might find some soft, rolling lumps. But don't kid yourself – it's fat, weak, and a long way from any kind of stand-out session. The 5ft might be pushing it for a pure beginner, but it won’t be powerful. Just a fun little mop-up after all the nothing.

That’s the whole story. A 16-day wait for a barely passable Saturday. Forecasts can change, but right now, that's all we've got.

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.
