The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty here, and I've been staring at the charts for our little slice of coast. Let's be honest, it's been a tough stretch. We're looking at a long, flat spell with very little to get excited about until the second week of the month. The water is sitting at 70°F, which is about a degree and a half warmer than usual for this time of year, a nice little bath for the long wait.
The first real sign of life doesn't show up until Sunday, August 9th, with a tiny 2ft from the NNW, but it's glassy in the morning. The energy is weak (106). It's surfable, but barely. That's a whole week of nothing worthwhile.
The pattern continues with a few more days of small, messy waves. The wind is mostly a pain, either cross-on or onshore.
Then, finally, we get a clearer window. Tuesday, August 11th is the best of the first week. The morning is glassy, with a 2ft swell from the NNW, period around 10 seconds. The combined energy is still moderate at 124, but with those glassy conditions, it'll be the cleanest we've seen. It's not big, but for a patient surfer on a longboard, La Nora could be fun and uncrowded.
Looking further out, the real standout is much later. Sunday, August 16th is the one to circle on the calendar. The morning is glassy again, with a bump in size to 6ft from the NW. The combined energy jumps to 263 (moderate), so there's some proper push. The period is a short 7 seconds though, so it'll be a bit crumbly and fat. It's a solid size for intermediate surfers, but the 6ft might be a bit much for beginners. This is the best-looking swell of the whole outlook, but it's a long way off, so keep an eye on it.
Monday the 17th looks a bit messed up with rain showers and a cross-shore wind, so the morning of the 16th is really the only clear winner here.
So, overall, it's a slow start. The first week is a write-off for any decent waves. The 11th offers a tiny, clean window, but the 16th is the real target. The wait is a long one, but it might just be worth 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.
