The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a tough one. For the next 16 days, the surf is a bust. We’re looking at a long, flat run with nothing worth paddling out for.
Starting right now, on Wednesday the 29th of July, and running all the way through to Wednesday the 13th of August, there’s no real swell to speak of. The wave energy is virtually non-existent, sitting at zero for most of the period, and even when we get a tiny pulse around the 4th of August, it’s just a pathetic 0.7 ft. The only spot on the radar is La Nartelle, and it’s a sheltered beginner’s break that’s inconsistent to begin with.
The few times we see a ripple, it’s short-period junk, with swell periods of 2 to 6 seconds, offering no push. The combined energy never cracks a three-digit number, the highest being a weak 11. Winds are mostly light and variable, with some glassy mornings, but there’s just no wave to work with. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so it’s comfortable, but you’d be floating, not surfing.
This is a blank run, plain and simple. Don’t bother checking the beach for the next two weeks. The forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a total drought.
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.
