The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here with the lowdown on La Nora. We’ve got a slow burn, but there’s some real gems hiding in this forecast if you know where to look.
The water’s a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, sitting at about 70°, so you’ll be comfortable in a spring suit.
First decent window is Friday morning, the 28th of August. We’ve got a clean 4ft swell out of the NW, with a short 7-second period. The wind is offshore from the south at 6 mph, keeping the surface glassy. The swell energy is moderate (217), so nothing too heavy, but perfect for an intermediate looking for a fun session.
The standout is Monday morning, the 31st of August. The wind goes dead calm, glassy as a lake, with a light offshore from the NNW at 3 mph. The swell picks up to a clean 5ft from the NW, with a better 10-second period. The energy jumps to a strong 516 – you’ll feel that power. This is the best of the first week. Expect very good, clean waves. Since it’s an exposed beach and point, that longer period will wrap around the point and give you some proper shape.
Mark your calendar for Saturday, the 5th of September. It’s a week out, so treat it as a promising look, but it’s got potential. Glassy again in the morning with a solid 5ft swell from the NNW, and a very long 13-second groundswell period. The energy is a beast at 726 – that’s serious punch. That long period is gold for the point break, giving you long, powerful walls. At that size, it’s for experts only.
After that, the swell fades for several days. There’s a long gap of nothing but small, weak waves and ordinary conditions. A few glassy mornings with tiny waves show up, but nothing worth rushing out for.
The last little tease comes on Saturday the 12th of September, with a very long 16-second period swell, but it’s a tiny 1ft. The energy is only moderate (120), so it’s a longboard glide, not a proper session.
Bottom line: Monday the 31st of August is your best bet, and that Saturday the 5th of September is the one to watch. Get on it.
Rusty.

Information about the La Nora Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Nora provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Nora can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Nora 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 Nora) 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 Nora 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.
La Nora is 7 km (4 miles) from the city of Gijon. If you plan a holiday in Asturias, look for hotels and other accommodation in Gijon. Gijon has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
