The Lowdown
Alright, crew, Rusty here with the lowdown on La Nartelle. I’ve looked through the entire 16-day forecast, and I’ll tell you plain: it’s a total dud. We’ve got a massive gap with zero surf to start. The first tiny sign of life comes on the 6th of September – we’re talking a measly 0.3 feet from the SE with a period of 4 seconds. The energy is basically nothing (2). And the wind is junk, cross-onshore.
For a spot like La Nartelle, a sheltered, inconsistent beginner wave, this kind of flat spell is pretty normal. The water temp is 79°, which is a massive 7° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s very unusual.
Next up, on the 10th of September (Thursday morning), we get a little bump to 2 feet from the ENE. Still a short 4-second period, but the wind is cross-onshore and it’s choppy. The energy is a pathetic 7.
Then we wait all the way to the 14th of September (Monday). In the morning it’s a tiny 0.7 feet (clean but flat), and in the afternoon it’s 2 feet from the E with a 4-second period. The energy climbs to 12, but again, it’s cross-onshore and choppy. There are a few silky-morning windows, like the 7th and 13th, but with zero swell, you’re just floating. The bottom line is there’s nothing surfable in this entire 16-day run. If you want the warm water, take a dip, but leave the board in the car. This is Rusty, out.

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.
