The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get real about this stretch we're looking at for La Nartelle. I gotta be straight with you – it's a tough one. We're lookin' at a long, long dry spell with barely a ripple to get excited about.

The water's sitting at a balmy 79°, which is a good 7° warmer than it should be for this time of year. That's pretty wild, practically bathwater, but it's not gonna help us get a wave.

Right out of the gate, from Monday the 31st of August all the way through the first week, it's pretty much flat. The energy is a big fat zero (0). We get a small pulse of a tiny 0.7ft swell from the ENE on Tuesday afternoon, but with a period of only 4 seconds and a cross-onshore wind, it's just chopped up junk. Not worth paddling out for.

This blank run stretches on for days. We get a few glassy mornings on the 4th and 5th of September, with the wind going totally calm, which is a tease, but there's still no swell to go with it. It's like having a perfect wave face without a wave.

The middle of the second week, around the 14th of September, we finally see a little bump of life. Monday morning shows some clouds and a 3ft swell from the east, with a period ticking up to 6 seconds. The combined energy is still weak at 57. The wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNW, which would clean it up nicely. But the trouble is, this is a sheltered spot, and that small, short-period east swell is just gonna be weak and fat. It's still being called "poor surf conditions."

Honestly, the whole 16-day window is a bit of a bust. There's no standout, no day to circle on the calendar. This is a sheltered beach, and it just doesn't have the exposure to catch anything decent. It's a stretch where the only thing happening is the sun and the wind. I'd say keep the board in the car for a drive, or maybe just enjoy the beach life. This setup looks more interesting for a kite than a paddle.

This is Rusty, signing off.

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.
