Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be honest with you, looking at the next 16 days for our stretch of coast, it is shaping up to be a real quiet one. We're staring down a long gap of flat to tiny conditions right from the get-go.
The first bit of surf we see – and I use the word "surf" loosely – isn't until Wednesday morning, July 9th. That’s a solid six-day wait with nothing worth paddling out for, just flat, clean mornings with no energy. From July 9th right through to the end of the window on July 18th, the swell is just not showing up in any meaningful way.
The only break on the cards is La Nartelle. It's a sheltered spot, and it's inconsistent even in the best of times, so this blank run isn't entirely out of the ordinary around here. The water temperature is sitting at a very unusual 79°, which is far warmer than normal for the time of year.
For the tiny bit of energy we do get, around Saturday, July 12th, there's a weak pulse from the east. The combined swell energy is pitiful (19), so we're talking about knee-high slop at best, with a short period around 4 to 5 seconds. The winds on Sunday morning, July 13th, are light and cross-shore, so it will be clean, but there's just nothing to ride.
That small spike around July 11th to 13th is the closest thing we have to a "standout," and that's only because everything else is a complete zero. It's not good. Conditions are just poor for the entire forecast. Honestly, with those east and southeast winds blowing onshore most afternoons and the total lack of swell, this setup looks more interesting for a kite surfer than for a traditional paddle surfer. Save your wax.
Rusty.

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.
