The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the next couple of weeks.

First off, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a pretty bleak run for La Nartelle. The entire 16-day window is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry gap right from the start, with no real surf to speak of for the first week. The 3rd of September through to the 9th is basically a write-off, with nothing but poor surf conditions and flat spells. A few tiny ripples show up, like a 0.3ft SE swell on the 5th, but that’s not going to get anyone out of bed.

The water is sitting at a very unusual 78°F – that’s a 7°F anomaly, much warmer than normal for this time of year, which is a bit of a novelty.

The only time the ocean even blinks is around the 10th of September. We get a tiny 1ft ENE swell showing up on Thursday morning with glassy conditions – that’s about as good as it gets for the cleanest window. The combined energy is a paltry (4) – weak doesn't even cover it. The wind is light and variable, but the swell is just too small and short-period (3 seconds) to form anything worth paddling for.

After that, it’s right back to the same story. We see a few more scraps of 0.7ft and 1ft E/ENE swell through the second week, but the energy is next to nothing, and the periods are junk. Even when the wind goes offshore on the 18th of September, there’s no swell to clean up.

Honestly, for a beginner-friendly, sheltered spot like La Nartelle, this is a rough patch. The setup is more interesting for a paddleboard than a surfboard right now. It’s a blank run, and it’s pretty normal for this area when the swell windows shut down. We just have to wait for the forecasts to change.

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.
