The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it.

Well, I gotta be honest with you—looking at the next 16 days, it’s a tough stretch for surf at La Nartelle. There’s a long gap of flat, poor conditions right from the start, so don’t bother paddling out on Thursday the 30th of July through to Saturday the 2nd of August. Even though the mornings are glassy or clean, there’s simply zero swell to work with. The wind is light and the water’s flat.

On Sunday the 2nd of August, we finally see a pulse, but it’s tiny. Early morning you might see a 1ft swell from the NE with a period of just 3 seconds. That’s weak—barely any energy (1). Combined with a light cross-onshore breeze, it’s not worth the wetsuit. By the afternoon, it’s still 1ft from the ENE, 3-second period, but now the wind turns onshore. It’s mushy and sloppy.

Monday the 3rd of August through to Wednesday the 5th of August stays flat with poor surf conditions. The energy readings are zero or very low. The mornings are often clean but the swell just isn’t there.

Late in the first week, on Thursday the 6th and Friday the 7th of August, we scrape a bit of life out of the ocean. A small S swell around 0.5ft to 0.5ft, period up to 6 seconds on Friday afternoon, but the wind is cross-onshore, and the combined energy never gets above 1. It’s borderline unrideable.

The weekend of the 8th and 9th of August? Flat again. Glassy mornings but no energy.

Now, here’s a glimmer: on Tuesday the 11th of August, the afternoon shows a 1ft ENE swell with a period of 6 seconds and combined energy of 12—that’s still very weak, but it’s the highest we see. Wind is cross-onshore though, so expect bumpy conditions. It’s not a standout at all.

Wednesday the 12th of August morning might be clean with a 0.5ft E swell, but the period is only 4 seconds. Afternoon is a tiny 2ft from the east, period 3 seconds, but onshore wind ruins it.

From Thursday the 13th of August onward, the wind cranks up—strong offshore breezes from the WNW up to 25 mph by Thursday afternoon, but there’s no swell to shape. It’s clean but empty.

Bottom line: There isn’t a single standout window in this 16-day run. This is a blank spell for the area. It’s the kind of stretch where you might keep the board in the car just in case, but the forecasts will need to change before there’s anything worth calling good.

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.
