The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what La Nartelle’s got cookin’ for the next couple weeks. Gotta be straight with ya, it's gonna be a quiet one.
We're lookin' at a long, dry spell right off the bat. From now through to the 18th of August, there's just nothin' on the table – flat as a pancake, with wave energy stuck at zero (0). You won't find a wave worth paddlin' for. That’s a solid week of no-go, so don't bother waxing up.
Finally, on the morning of the 19th of August, we see a little whisper of life. A south swell sneaks in at 2ft, but with a short period of 7 seconds and a weak combined energy reading of only 25, it's real marginal. The wind's a light cross-shore, so the surface might be okay, but the lack of push makes this a tough one to ride. Still counts as poor surf.
The pattern keeps chuggin' along with tiny, weak pulses. The 21st of August morning shows a little SSE swell at 1ft with clean conditions under a light cross-offshore wind, but again, it's just enough to get your hopes up, not your feet wet. The energy is still very low (12).
Lookin' further out, the end of the month from the 25th onward has some strong offshore winds – West and WSW gusts up to 18 mph – but sadly, with no swell to groom. The ocean will look clean but empty.
The only real standout, or the best we've got in this sorry stretch, is that brief window on the 19th of August. Even then, with a score of 0 out of 10, it's strictly for the die-hards with a log who just need to get wet. For anyone else, it’s a skip.

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.
